Fatigue is one of the most common subjective symptoms of abnormal health state, there is still no reliable and stable evaluation method to distinguish disease fatigue and non-disease fatigue. Studies have shown that tongue diagnosis and pulse diagnosis are the reflection of overall state of the body. This study aims to explore the distribution rules and correlation of data of tongue and pulse in population with disease fatigue and sub-health fatigue and provide a new method of clinical diagnosis of fatigue from the perspective of tongue diagnosis and pulse diagnosis. In this study, a total of 736 people were selected and divided into healthy controls (n = 250), sub-health fatigue group (n = 242), and disease fatigue group (n = 244). TFDA-1 tongue diagnosis instrument and PDA-1 pulse diagnosis instrument were used to collect tongue image and sphygmogram, simple correlation analysis and canonical correlation analysis were used to analyze the correlation of tongue and pulse data about the two groups of fatigue people. The study had shown that tongue and pulse data could provide a certain reference for the diagnosis of different types of fatigue, tongue and pulse data in disease fatigue and sub-health fatigue population had different distribution rules, and there was a simple correlation and canonical correlation in the disease fatigue population, the coefficient of canonical correlation was .649 (P <.05).

Background: Fatigue and inactivity are linked to decreased health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in chronic conditions. A multidimensional approach to activity pacing may improve HRQoL by promoting physical activity (PA) and alleviating fatigue. Addressing fatigue across chronic conditions is crucial, especially when underlying causes are unknown.

Objectives: To address the issue that most microsatellite-stable (MSS) and proficient mismatch repair (pMMR) metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients have minimal response to immunotherapy, this meta-analysis evaluated the efficacy and safety of durvalumab and tremelimumab with concomitant treatment in treating MSS/pMMR metastatic colorectal cancer.

Methods: All included trials were prospective studies with a median patient age of 63 years, of which 94.2% were MSS/pMMR mCRC patients, with a male to female ratio of 1.

Can exercise reduce fatigue in people living with kidney disease?

Curr Opin Clin Nutr Metab Care

January 2025

Institute for Applied Human Physiology, Bangor University, Bangor, UK.

Purpose Of Review: In people living with kidney disease (KD) Fatigue is a whole-body tiredness that is not related to activity or exertion. Often self-reported, fatigue is a common and highly burdensome symptom, yet poorly defined and understood. While its mechanisms are complex, many fatigue-related factors may be altered by exercise and physical activity intervention.

Background: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is associated with physical limitations and significant social, psychological, and behavioral challenges. This study investigates the relationship between fatigue levels and psychosocial adjustment in COPD patients, considering their sociodemographic characteristics.

Methods: A descriptive study was conducted with 160 COPD patients hospitalized in the Pulmonology Department of a university hospital.
