The influence of implant design and structural factors on fatigue life under cyclic loading was investigated. The implants were manufactured from 316L steel powder using 3D printing for medical use. A simulation model of implant deformation was built using ANSYS software. The obtained data showed that the geometry of the implant had the necessary margin of safety for osseointegration time. It was found that the stress concentration factor, which is associated with fatigue life, for an implant with a hexagon head and internal thread depends on the mechanical properties of the metal, design, and load conditions. The presence of internal threads and holes in the implant increases the stress concentration factor by more than 10 times. The number of load cycles for the failure of the implant, which was calculated by taking into account a coefficient for reducing the endurance limit, was found to be sufficient for implant osseointegration.

Home-Based Intervention Tool for Cardiac Telerehabilitation: Protocol for a Controlled Trial.

Background: Among cardiovascular diseases, adult patients with congenital heart disease represent a population that has been continuously increasing, which is mainly due to improvement of the pathophysiological framing, including the development of surgical and reanimation techniques. However, approximately 20% of these patients will require surgery in adulthood and 40% of these cases will necessitate reintervention for residual defects or sequelae of childhood surgery. In this field, cardiac rehabilitation (CR) in the postsurgical phase has an important impact on the patient by improving psychophysical and clinical recovery in reducing fatigue and dyspnea to ultimately increase survival.

Sleep disorders are relatively common among patients with inflammatory arthritis (IA) and have a substantial impact on their quality of life. Although patients frequently recognize poor sleep as an important component of their disease, dyssomnias remain often underdiagnosed and untreated in routine clinical practice. This narrative review examines the prevalence, mechanism, risk factors and management of dyssomnias in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA).

Purpose: The priorities and concerns of sarcoidosis patients in the United States (US) have not been well-described.
Methods: A survey constructed by sarcoidosis patients and doctors was administered to US sarcoidosis patients. The survey queried patients concerning their demographics, disease state, disease impact on health and well-being, health care priorities and impressions of sarcoidosis care.
Introduction: As pharmacological strategies remain limited for relieving fatigue and associated cognitive symptoms, integrative modalities such as traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) could be explored as therapeutic strategies in cancer survivors. Here, we evaluate and report the efficacy and safety of a TCM concoction, modified Xiang Bei Yang Rong Tang (XBYRT), on quality of life (QOL), cancer-related fatigue (CRF), and cognitive symptoms, compared to placebo.
Methods: In a single-centered, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled pilot trial conducted from 2019 to 2022, fatigued cancer survivors ≥21 years old were recruited to receive the XBYRT intervention or placebo (5% diluted) once daily for the duration of 8 weeks.

Background: COVID-19 is known to cause significant multisystem inflammatory responses, leading to symptoms beyond the acute phase of illness. These "long COVID" symptoms affect quality of life and interfere with daily activities. This pilot study looks at the feasibility, tolerability, and safety of omega-3 (docosahexaenoic acid+eicosapentaenoic acid, EPA) among healthcare workers with long COVID symptoms in New Jersey.
