Background: Different combinations of lifestyle interventions have been studied with varying results on hypertension control. Hence, this review was done to compare multiple combined lifestyle intervention in reducing blood pressure (BP) among patients with prehypertension or hypertension.
Methods: We conducted systematic search in the following databases: MEDLINE, PubMed Central, CENTRAL, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar from 1964 until November 2020. Estimates of comparative intervention effect from network meta-analyses (random-effects model) were represented as mean difference (MD) with 95% confidence interval.
Results: In total, 14 studies with 2451 participants were included. Almost all the studies had high risk of bias. Healthy diet (HD) and physical activity (PA) combination showed highest mean reduction in systolic BP (-9.88 mmHg) and diastolic BP (-6.28 mmHg) followed by HD + PA + smoking cessation + alcohol restriction combination (systolic BP = -6.58 mmHg, diastolic BP = -4.09 mmHg) compared with usual care. HD and PA combination had the highest probability of being the best intervention (82.8% for SBP and 81.7% for DBP).
Conclusion: We found that HD and PA are the most important combination of lifestyle modifications for prehypertensive and hypertensive patients. Hence, a coordinated approach is required from the clinicians by integrating beneficial effect of these modifications through education, counselling and support.

Purpose: Synchronous esophageal (EC) and rectal carcinoma (RC) is a rare and challenging condition, particularly in curative-intended treatment. Especially locally advanced tumors may not be suitable for primary resection and require individual multimodal treatment. This review examines curative-intended management of synchronous EC and RC.

Background: Renal autoregulatory mechanisms modulate renal blood flow. Connecting tubule glomerular feedback (CNTGF) is a vasodilator mechanism in the connecting tubule (CNT), triggered paracrinally when high sodium levels are detected via the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC). The primary activation factor of CNTGF-whether NaCl concentration, independent luminal flow, or the combined total sodium delivery-is still unclear.

Immunotherapy is improving the survival of patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), yet reliable biomarkers are needed to identify responders prospectively and optimize patient care. In this study, we explore the benefits of multimodal approaches to predict immunotherapy outcome using multiple machine learning algorithms and integration strategies. We analyze baseline multimodal data from a cohort of 317 metastatic NSCLC patients treated with first-line immunotherapy, including positron emission tomography images, digitized pathological slides, bulk transcriptomic profiles, and clinical information.

Neutrophils undergo rapid aging and death known as constitutive or spontaneous death. Constitutive neutrophil death (CND) contributes to neutrophil homeostasis and inflammation resolution. CND has long been considered to be apoptotic until our findings reveal that it was a heterogeneous combination of diverse death.

Background: The cytochrome P450s-mediated metabolic resistance and the target site insensitivity caused by the knockdown resistance (kdr) mutation in the voltage-gated sodium channel (vgsc) gene were the main mechanisms conferring resistance to deltamethrin in Culex quinquefasciatus from Thailand. This study aimed to investigate the expression levels of cytochrome P450 genes and detect mutations of the vgsc gene in deltamethrin-resistant Cx. quinquefasciatus populations in Thailand.
