Study Objectives: Despite considering it as a common geriatric condition, sarcopenia is linked to various behavioral factors that may be changeable. As sleep is one of the important routines in physiological homeostasis, further investigating the underlying relationships of sleep behavior with sarcopenia is urgently needed. We examined the association between sleep parameters (ie, sleep duration, bedtime, wake time, or midsleep time) and sarcopenia risks in older adults, in the total sample and age group subsamples.
Methods: A total of 1,068 older adults in Taiwan were included. Data on bedtime, wake time, and sleep duration were collected through telephone interview. Midsleep time was calculated by the midpoint of bedtime and wake time. Sarcopenia was screened by the SARC-F questionnaire composed of 5 questions (the strength, assistance in walking, rising from a chair, climbing stairs, and falls) as well as higher scores was related to greater risks. Generalized additive models were conducted to examine the nonlinear relationships between sleep parameters and sarcopenia risks.
Results: The covariate-adjusted analysis showed that a reverse J-shaped relationship for sleep duration and sarcopenia risk ( < .001) and a significant association for wake time and the SARC-F score ( = .009) in total sample, with considering age-related interaction. No associations were found in the other sleep parameters (bedtime and midsleep time) and sarcopenia in older adults. Similar associations were observed between wake time and the SARC-F score across age groups, while diverse associations of sleep duration with the SARC-F score were found in different age groups.
Conclusions: The sleep pattern is significantly associated with sarcopenia risks in aging adults. Improving inappropriate sleep behaviors in older adults is suggested to prevent a decline in muscle function and promote healthy aging.

Formulation and clinical evaluation of hyaluronic acid nanogel in treatment of tear trough: Nano-flipping from injectable fillers to topical nanofillers.

Tear trough deformity (TTD) is a significant cosmetic concern, with current treatments relying primarily on invasive injectable fillers, which are costly and carry risks of complications. Despite the widespread use of hyaluronic acid (HA) in cosmetic applications, its poor dermal permeation has limited the development of effective topical fillers for TTD.This study aim to develop and evaluate a novel hyaluronic acid nanogel (nanofiller, NF) as a non-invasive topical filler for TTD.

Background: Patients with chronic kidney disease and their families request early and continuous advance care planning. Based on user involvement, an advance care planning intervention was developed to support patients, family members and healthcare professionals (HCPs) in advance care planning conversations in a nephrology outpatient setting.
Objective: To explore the experiences and perceptions of an advance care planning intervention among patients with chronic kidney disease, family members and healthcare professionals.
Multidimensional characterization of craniofacial skeletal phenotype of obstructive sleep apnea in adults.

Objectives: We aimed to characterize a craniofacial skeletal phenotype (CSP) of adult obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients from a multidimensional perspective, exploring the impact of transverse skeletal discrepancy (TSD) on multivariable polysomnographic profiles.
Materials And Methods: This retrospective, cross-sectional study included 102 adult OSA patients. Sagittal, vertical, and transverse skeletal patterns were categorized on the cone beam computed tomography images.
Secondary amputation: a qualitative study of quality of life in patients after primary limb salvage surgery and after later ablative sarcoma treatment.

Objective: This study focuses on how patients experience the time following amputation after primary limb salvage surgery due to musculoskeletal malignancies. Limb salvage is state of the art in the treatment of musculoskeletal tumours. Nonetheless, in some cases, limb salvage can become problematic over time, resulting in poorer limb function and septic outcomes.
