Coaching log notes for 15 participants from a 24-week blended online and telehealth randomized controlled trial were analyzed using thematic analysis and analyst triangulation to determine the factors that facilitated participant adherence to weight loss strategies, use of technology, and motivational interviewing. Several participants reported that restricting processed carbohydrates, limiting portion size, and maintaining healthy substitutions were effective nutritional strategies. Participants were less successful with adherence to their exercise goals, often due to time constraints and a lack of support. Results suggested consistent caregiver support improved participants' adherence to weight loss strategies and use of technology. Future programs should address obesity among people with intellectual and developmental disabilities by offering a range of interventions that are customized to their specific weight loss needs.

Retrospective analysis of the occurrence, potential risk factors and medical significance of pulmonary complications after total shoulder arthroplasty from the National Inpatient Sample database (2010-2019).
Perioper Med (Lond)
January 2025
Department of Anesthesiology, Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou, 510515, Guangdong, China.
Background: In USA, total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) ranks amongst the top five surgeries that require hospitalization. As a result, the healthcare system in USA could face a considerable financial strain due to the emergence of subsequent pulmonary problems. This study aimed to conduct a thorough examination of the prevalence, influential factors and medical importance of pulmonary complications, with emphasis on pneumonia, respiratory failure and pulmonary embolism (PE) following total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) procedures in USA.

Background: Cows that develop metritis experience dysbiosis of their uterine microbiome, where opportunistic pathogens overtake uterine commensals. An effective immune response is critical for maintaining uterine health. Nonetheless, periparturient cows experience immune dysregulation, which seems to be intensified by prepartum over-condition.

BMC Plant Biol
January 2025
Plants for Human Health Institute, North Carolina State University, Kannapolis, NC, 28081, USA.
Background: Fruit quality traits, including taste, flavor, texture, and shelf-life, have emerged as important breeding priorities in blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum). Organic acids and sugars play crucial roles in the perception of blueberry taste/flavor, where low and high consumer liking are correlated with high organic acids and high sugars, respectively. Blueberry texture and appearance are also critical for shelf-life quality and consumers' willingness-to-pay.

Primary lateral sclerosis (PLS) is a motor neuron disease (MND) which mainly affects upper motor neurons. Within the MND spectrum, PLS is much more slowly progressive than amyotrophic laterals sclerosis (ALS). `Classical` ALS is characterized by catabolism and abnormal energy metabolism preceding onset of motor symptoms, and previous studies indicated that the disease progression of ALS involves hypothalamic atrophy.

January AI, Menlo Park, CA, USA.
This retrospective cohort study evaluates the impact of an AI-supported continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) mobile app ("January V2") on glycemic control and weight management in 944 users, including healthy individuals and those with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes (T2D). The app, leveraging AI to personalize feedback, tracked users' food intake, activity, and glucose responses over 14 days. Significant improvements in time in range (TIR) were observed, particularly in users with lower baseline TIR.
