Background: Sleep disturbances are common among individuals with leukemia, and they can significantly impact their overall well-being. Acupuncture and foot reflexology, two alternative therapies rooted in traditional Chinese medicine, have gained recognition for their potential to address sleep issues and alleviate associated symptoms.
Methods: This single blinded, three-groups randomized controlled trial was navigated at Tohid Hospital, involving 132 leukemia patients divided into acupuncture (n = 44), foot reflexology (n = 44), and control (n = 44) groups via random card selection.

In this paper, a robust fuzzy multi-objective framework is performed to optimize the dispersed and hybrid renewable photovoltaic-wind energy resources in a radial distribution network considering uncertainties of renewable generation and network demand. A novel multi-objective improved gradient-based optimizer (MOIGBO) enhanced with Rosenbrock's direct rotational technique to overcome premature convergence is proposed to determine the problem optimal decision variables. The deterministic optimization framework without uncertainty minimizes active energy loss, unmet customer energy, and renewable generation costs.

Background: Bipolar disorder is a severe recurrent, episodic psychiatric condition with a worldwide prevalence of approximately 1%, affecting more than 5 million adults in the United States in 2020. A subtype, bipolar I disorder (BP-I), which accounts for approximately one-quarter of cases, is associated with impairments in psychosocial functioning and quality of life. Recommended treatment options include daily oral, or long-acting injectable, antipsychotics, including the aripiprazole once every month formulation, which has been shown to improve adherence compared with oral treatments.
