Objective: For early diagnosis and inquiry into the pathophysiology of Sjögren disease (SjD), salivary secretion and component levels, and salivary glands' uptakes in sialoscintigraphy were examined, in this cross-sectional study.
Methods: Patients who visited our hospital with suspected SjD between April 2016 and March 2020 were checked for unstimulated salivary secretion and β2-microglobulin, Na+, and cortisol levels in saliva. The patients who showed any abnormal salivary test results underwent sialoscintigraphy; the uptakes in the parotid, submandibular, and thyroid glands were compared using paired t test.

To analyze the influence of cervical range of motion on the preferable sagittal vertical axis in ankylosis spondylitis (AS)-related thoracolumbar kyphosis following single-level pedicle subtraction osteotomy (PSO). The clinical data of sixty-five AS patients who underwent single-level PSO from February 2012 to November 2018 in the Drum Tower Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School were retrospectively reviewed. Of the patients, 59 were males and 6 were females with a mean age of (34.

Background: The Hormonal Bone Effects (HOBOE) study tested whether adjuvant triptorelin plus either letrozole (L) or zoledronic acid (Z) plus L (ZL) was more effective than tamoxifen (T) in premenopausal patients with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) early breast cancer (BC). Here we report the long-term follow-up analysis.

Background: Clinical reception training plays a crucial role in developing undergraduates' clinical thinking and competence. The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of clinical reception training conducted by standard patients (SPs) and dental simulators among undergraduate students.
Materials And Methods: In the first week of the internship, sixty-five 5-year undergraduate students were divided into two groups: SP group, which received traditional theoretical training along with clinical reception training, and control group that only received traditional theoretical training.

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a complex chronic condition that places young adults aged 18-31 years at high risk for general and diabetes-related distress and poor cardiovascular health. Both general and diabetes distress are linked to higher A1C, a known risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). The purpose of this cross-sectional quantitative descriptive study was to examine the associations between distress symptoms (general and diabetes) and cardiovascular health while considering covariates in young adults ages 18-31 years with T1D.
