Objectives: To prevent the future development of insomnia in at-risk adolescents.
Methods: A randomized controlled trial comparing 4 weekly insomnia prevention program with a nonactive control group. Subjects were assessed at baseline, postintervention, and 6 and 12 months after intervention. Assessors were blinded to the randomization. Analyses were conducted on the basis of the intention-to-treat principles.
Results: A total of 242 adolescents with family history of insomnia and subthreshold insomnia symptoms were randomly assigned to an intervention group ( = 121; mean age = 14.7 ± 1.8; female: 51.2%) or control group ( = 121; mean age = 15.0 ± 1.7; female: 62.0%). There was a lower incidence rate of insomnia disorder (both acute and chronic) in the intervention group compared with the control group (5.8% vs 20.7%; = .002; number needed to treat = 6.7; hazard ratio = 0.29; 95% confidence interval: 0.12-0.66; = .003) over the 12-month follow-up. The intervention group had decreased insomnia symptoms ( = .03) and reduced vulnerability to stress-related insomnia ( = .03) at postintervention and throughout the 12-month follow-up. Decreased daytime sleepiness ( = .04), better sleep hygiene practices ( = .02), and increased total sleep time ( = .05) were observed at postintervention. The intervention group also reported fewer depressive symptoms at 12-month follow-up ( = .02) compared with the control group.
Conclusions: A brief cognitive behavioral program is effective in preventing the onset of insomnia and improving the vulnerability factors and functioning outcomes.

Unidad de Revisiones Sistemáticas y Meta-análisis (URSIGET), Vicerrectorado de Investigación, Universidad San Ignacio de Loyola, Lima, Peru.
Background: There is scarce data on the prognostic value of frailty in patients with Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM). This study aimed to assess the association between frailty and in-hospital outcomes in patients with TCM.
Methods: Adult admissions with TCM were included using the 2016-2019 National Inpatient Sample database.
Associations between skeletal muscle mass and elevated blood pressure are independent of body fat: a cross-sectional study in young adult women of African ancestry.

SAMRC/Wits Developmental Pathways for Health Research Unit, Faculty of Health Sciences, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, South Africa.
Although research on the relationship between lean body mass and blood pressure (BP) has been inconsistent, most studies reported that measures of lean body mass are associated with a higher risk of hypertension. We explored relationships between body composition (fat and skeletal muscle mass) and BP in 1162 young adult African women. DXA-derived measures of whole body, central and arm fat mass were associated with higher systolic and diastolic BP, while leg fat percentage was associated with lower systolic and diastolic BP.

This study evaluated the effects of a critical reflection program utilizing the Lasater Clinical Judgment Rubric (LCJR) reflective questions based on the Clinical Judgment Model (CJM) on newly graduated nurses' clinical judgment skills. A total of 153 newly graduated nurses scheduled for on-site training in a ward nursing unit were divided into a control group (receiving only the usual on-site training with preceptorship) and an experimental group (receiving the developed program with the same on-site training with preceptorship as the control group). Data were collected at baseline, 6 weeks, and 3 months after the intervention.

Background And Hypothesis: Daprodustat, an oral hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor, is approved for treatment of anemia in dialysis patients with CKD in some parts of the world. This subgroup analysis examined the efficacy and safety of daprodustat versus darbepoetin alfa in patients with anemia of CKD undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD).
Methods: ASCEND-D (NCT02879305) was an open-label, Phase 3 trial; patients with CKD were randomized to daprodustat daily and epoetin alfa (HD patients) or darbepoetin alfa (PD patients).

Objective: Asthma poses a significant health burden in South Asia, with increasing incidence and mortality despite a global decline in age-standardized prevalence rates. This study aims to analyze asthma trends from 1990 to 2021, focusing on prevalence, incidence, mortality, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) across South Asia. The study also assesses the impact of risk factors like high body mass index (BMI), smoking, and occupational exposures on asthma outcomes.
