Association between Expanded Disability Status Scale score and dietary antioxidant capacity in patients with multiple sclerosis
Braz J Med Biol Res. 2023 Sep 8;56:e12776. doi: 10.1590/1414-431X2023e12776. eCollection 2023.ABSTRACTMultiple sclerosis (MS), a neuroinflammation that results in neurodegeneration, is the most prevalent central nervous system inflammatory disease in young people. A diet rich in antioxidants is known to decrease the production/activity of pro-inflammatory cytokines and have a positive impact on the prognosis of MS. The purpose of this study was to assess if dietary antioxidant capacity is related to Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) scores in patients with MS. Patients with MS (n=220; 137 women and 83 men) were asked...

Turn-taking and communication modes of students and staff in group activities at non-inclusive schools for students with intellectual disability
Augment Altern Commun. 2023 Sep 13:1-12. doi: 10.1080/07434618.2023.2243517. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMost students with intellectual and communicative disability who rely on augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) attend non-inclusive school settings. Little is known about turn-taking and the use of various communication modes in groups of students and staff in this context. Previous studies on single students with intellectual disability in various school settings have found that staff tend to dominate interactions and augmented communication modes are used more during structured than unstructured activitie...

Treatment of digital ulcers in systemic sclerosis: recent developments and future perspectives
AbstractDigital ulcers (DUs) comprise the main manifestation of vasculopathy and are a major cause of disability in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc). A literature search in Web of Science, PubMed and Directory of Open Access Journals was performed in December 2022 to identify articles published in the last decade regarding the management of DUs. Prostacyclin analogues, endothelin antagonists and phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitors have shown promising results both as a stand-alone treatment and in combination for the treatment of existing and prevention of new DUs. Moreover, autologous fat grafting and botulinum toxin inj...

Finding Power in My Panic Attacks
Trouble started in the form of rivulets of sweat dampening the waistband of my underwear. It was a bluebird afternoon in Phoenix in December of 2020, mid 60s, desert dry, and my heart was jackhammering against my ribcage. Breathing felt like I was sucking air through a stir straw.

I tried to swallow away the sandiness in my mouth but realized I’d forgotten how.

Impact of short-term exposure to ambient air pollution on osteoarthritis: a multi-city time-series analysis in Central-Eastern China
This study aimed to explore the relationship between short-term exposure to main air pollutants and the risk of OA outpatient visits in multi-study sites. A multi-city time-series analysis was performed in Anhui Province, Central-Eastern China from January 1, 2015, to December 31, 2020. We used a two-stage analysis to assess the association between air pollution and daily OA outpatient visits. City-specific associations were estimated with a distributed lag nonlinear model and then pooled by random-effects or fixed-effects meta-analysis. Stratified analysis was conducted by gender, age, and season. Additionally, the diseas...

Galectin-3 promotes brain injury by modulating the phenotype of microglia via binding TLR-4 after intracerebral hemorrhage
CONCLUSIONS: This study proves that Gal-3 is involved in neuroinflammation and nerve damage after ICH. Gal-3 expression should not be encouraged early on to prevent neuroinflammation. which provides a new possibility for clinical treatment for ICH patients.PMID:37698533 | DOI:10.18632/aging.205014

Carer-supported home-based exercises designed to target physical activity levels and functional mobility after stroke: a scoping review
CONCLUSION: There was large variation in the volume and content of training provided to carers. Physical activity levels were infrequently objectively reported. Future studies should include greater details on their protocols to allow for replication and implementation into clinical practice.PMID:37698010 | DOI:10.1080/09638288.2023.2256663
