We report the case of a man with a primary diagnosis of Waldenström macroglobulinemia. He secondarily presented a diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) located in the nasal fossae, which relapsed later in the eye. The diagnosis of these two malignancies is based on a multidisciplinary biological approach using new sensitive and specific techniques. These techniques revealed that the two diseases harbor different B cell clones, indicating a distinct origin. This observation highlights the importance of targeted biological techniques for the diagnosis of these two rare hemopathies. It also shows that it is possible to prove the independent nature of the two tumor clones, thus allowing optimized therapeutic management.

Background And Aims: Current prehabilitation programs are often limited by poor recruitment and attrition rates. Remote delivery of prehabilitation may reduce barriers to participation and maximize program retention. We aimed to assess the feasibility (uptake, retention, fidelity), preliminary effectiveness, and acceptability of delivering a technology-supported prehabilitation program remotely to oncologic surgical candidates.

Empathic stress in the family: Does diurnal cortisol covariation between adolescents and their parents influence adolescent empathic stress in the laboratory?

Empathic stress is the reproduction of psychological and physiological stress activation in an observer of a directly stressed target individual. It likely allows us to allocate the energy necessary to jointly alleviate a stressor at hand. The tendency to show such an empathic or "second-hand" stress response depends on the relationship between target and observer.

This study aimed (1) to describe the experience of adolescents and adults using FitSpirit asynchronous virtual (V) exercise videos that target adolescent girls, (2) to compare physical activity (PA) levels and exercise-related self-perception variables among groups (2019 in-person [IP], 2021 IP, and 2021 V) of adolescent girls, and (3) to assess the association between the adolescents' PA levels and their exercise-related self-perception in response to IP (pre-pandemic and during pandemic) and V (during pandemic) FitSpirit exercise modes. Regarding the first aim, 28 adolescent girls ([15.5 ​± ​0.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to gauge the impacts of cognitive empathy training experiential learning on traumatic brain injury (TBI) knowledge, awareness, confidence, and empathy in a pilot study of speech-language pathology graduate students.

Method: A descriptive quasi-experimental convergent parallel mixed methods design intervention pilot study (QUAL + QUANT) was conducted with a diverse convenience sample of 19 first- and second-year speech-language pathology graduate students who engaged in a half-day TBI point-of-view simulation. The simulation was co-constructed through a participatory design with those living with TBI based on Kolb's experiential learning model and followed the recommendations for point-of-view simulation ethics.

Validation of Sleep Measurements of an Actigraphy Watch: Instrument Validation Study.

JMIR Form Res

January 2025

Department of Biomedical Informatics, Graduate School of Medicine, The University of Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan.

Background: The iAide2 (Tokai) physical activity monitoring system includes diverse measurements and wireless features useful to researchers. The iAide2's sleep measurement capabilities have not been compared to validated sleep measurement standards in any published work.

Objective: We aimed to assess the iAide2's sleep duration and total sleep time (TST) measurement performance and perform calibration if needed.
