Background: To evaluate the clinic effect of treatment of trigeminal neuralgia (TN).

Methods: The current study aims to develop a multiple-scale characteristics quality of life (QOL) for patients with TN. After interview, the individual questionnaire was acquired. indicating the QOL has a good responsiveness and surveying effects of the dynamic state of health on TN patients.

Conclusion: It is feasible to form multiple-scale characteristics QOL for patients with TN.

Background: Malnutrition is common with esophagogastric cancers and is associated with negative outcomes. We aimed to evaluate if immunonutrition during neoadjuvant treatment improves patient's health-related quality of life (HRQOL) and reduces postoperative morbidity and toxicities during neoadjuvant treatment.

Methods: A multicenter double-blind randomized controlled trial (RCT) was undertaken.

Still, no prior studies have examined the appropriate 'dosage' and whether screening for distress before cancer treatment may be sufficient or if further screenings during treatment are necessary. We examined the development in symptom trajectories for breast cancer patients with low distress before surgery and explored potential risk factors for developing burdensome symptoms at a later point in time.

Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) progressively leads to loss of limb function due to muscle weakness. The incurable nature of the disease shifts the focus to improving quality of life, including assistive supports to improve arm function. Over time, the passive joint impedance (Jimp) of people with DMD increases.
