This MotiMove study is abasis for future research programs and empower physiotherapists and movement experts to develop and implement training programs for obese adolescents and children.

Digital technologies could be a successful way to further increase motivation and compliance of our target group. This MotiMove study is a basis for future research programs and empower physiotherapists and movement experts to develop and implement training programs for obese adolescents and children.

Chronic kidney disease patients show ahigh mortality in cases of asevere acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV‑2) infection. Thus, information on the sero-status of nephrology personnel might be crucial for patient protection; however, limited information exists about the presence of SARS-CoV‑2 antibodies in asymptomatic individuals.

We examined the seroprevalence of SARS-CoV‑2 IgG and IgM antibodies among healthcare workers of atertiary care kidney center during the the first peak phase of the corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) crisis in Austria using an orthogonal test strategy and atotal of 12 commercial nucleocapsid protein or spike glycoprotein-based assays as well as Western blotting and aneutralization assay.

At baseline 60 of 235 study participants (25.5%, 95% confidence interval, CI 20.4-31.5%) were judged to be borderline positive or positive for IgM or IgG using ahigh sensitivity/low specificity threshold in one test system. Follow-up analysis after about 2 weeks revealed IgG positivity in 12 (5.1%, 95% CI 2.9-8.8%) and IgM positivity in 6 (2.6%, 95% CI 1.1-5.6) in at least one assay. Of the healthcare workers 2.1% (95% CI 0.8-5.0%) showed IgG nucleocapsid antibodies in at least 2 assays. By contrast, positive controls with proven COVID-19 showed antibody positivity among almost all test systems. Lanraplenib in vitro Moreover, serum samples obtained from healthcare workers did not show SARS-CoV‑2 neutralizing capacity, in contrast to positive controls.

Using abroad spectrum of antibody tests the present study revealed inconsistent results for SARS-CoV‑2 seroprevalence among asymptomatic individuals, while this was not the case among COVID-19 patients.

Current guidelines for initiation of kidney replacement do not include specific recommendations for prescription parameters and monitoring.

A 16-year-old girl presented with kidney failure with creatinine of 19.8 mg/dL and BUN of 211 mg/dL. She initiated continuous kidney replacement therapy (CKRT) with clearance of 1,300 mL/min/1.73 m

which was increased to 1,950 mL/min/1.73 m

at 17 h of stable therapy.

At 31 h of therapy, she developed generalized seizure activity. CT imaging was negative for acute intracranial process, and EEG demonstrated diffuse encephalopathy. CKRT was discontinued, and BUN was noted to be 47 mg/dL at that time (a 79% reduction from presenting BUN).

• The potential for development of DDS is not isolated to intermittent hemodialysis and may occur later in presentation. • A decreased clearance rate should be considered in those with risk factors for development of dialysis disequilibrium syndrome (DDS). • Frequent monitoring of BUN/serum osmolality is important to allow for adjustment of the KRT prescription following initiation of therapy. • Additional research is needed to guide risk assessment for DDS and therapeutic timing and goals in the early stages of KRT initiation. • Inclusion of more specific guidelines surrounding DDS would assist in providing important support for nephrologists.

Although endoscopic naso-biliary drainage (ENBD) is a popular preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) method for patients with perihilar biliary malignancy (PHBM), patient discomfort caused by the nasal tube remains a problem. This study aimed to analyze the safety and efficacy of PBD with the placement of a plastic stent above the papilla [inside-stent (IS)] as a bridging therapy.

The outcomes of 78 patients with potentially resectable PHBM, of whom 29 underwent IS placement and 49 underwent ENBD were evaluated.

The stent-associated complication rates were not different between the two groups (7% in the IS group and 10% in the ENBD group, P = 0.621). Catheter dislocation occurred less frequently (0% vs. 22%, P = 0.016), and the median time to recurrent biliary obstruction was longer (not reached vs. 32days, P = 0.039) in the IS group than in the ENBD group. Among the patients who underwent resection, their postoperative severe complication rates were not substantially different (26% vs. 25%, P = 0.923).

IS placement is a possible alternative to ENBD as a bridge to a definitive operation for patients with resectable PHBM and a prospective trial to prove its feasibility and safety is therefore warranted.

Timely, evidence-based assessment of OD can help healthcare teams to create OD management plans that optimize consumer health and minimize healthcare costs. Instrumental swallowing assessment (ISA), specifically flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (FEES) and videofluoroscopic swallowing studies (VFSS), is generally accepted to be an important component of dysphagia assessment and management in older adults. However, its role in RACHs has not been empirically examined. This study aimed to explore the role and use of ISA in adults in RACHs from the perspective of speech-language-pathologists (SLPs) experienced in a RACH setting and/or FEES and VFSS. A three-round electronic Delphi study was conducted to guide 58 SLPs in Australia towards consensus using a combination of multiple-choice questions, statements with five-point Likert scale agreement options, and open-ended questions.
