Scapulohumeral periarthritis is a disease that seriously affects human daily work and life, and greatly reduces peoples quality of life and affects human health all over the world. Now, many studies have shown that acupuncture and rehabilitation have a significant effect on scapulohumeral periarthritis. In this study, network meta-analysis was used to analyze and compare the clinical efficacy and difference of different acupuncture treatments on scapulohumeral periarthritis.

All patients were diagnosed as scapulohumeral periarthritis by randomized controlled trial. Computer searches will be conducted on CNKI, Wan-Fang databases, VIP, CBM, Pubmed, Cochrane library, Embase, Web of Science. The retrieval period is from the date of database establishment to September 8, 2020. To avoid omissions, we will manually retrieve relevant references and conference papers. Finally, the risk of bias included in the study will be assessed according to the guidelines of the Cochrane Handbook for systematic review of interventions. All data analysis will be performed by Revman 5.3, WinBUGS1.4.3 and Stata14.2.

The effectiveness of each intervention was quantified. The main results included cure rate, total effective rate, VAS score and shoulder function score.

Objective to provide evidence-based medicine basis for clinicians to choose more effective acupuncture therapy for scapulohumeral periarthritis.

A large number of patients will experience pruritus after uremia. Medicine is the preferred treatment for many doctors, but the effectiveness and safety of different medicines for uremia pruritus has not yet been comprehensively compared, based on network meta-analysis.

According to the retrieval strategy, two team members independently searched the literature in 7 databases, and imported the retrieval results into the EndNote Software AQ8 (V.X9). After deleting repeated articles, they read the abstract and the full text, selected the articles that met the inclusion criteria and extracted valid information. The main results were visual analogue scale (VAS) and the secondary results were verbal rating scale (VRS), Dirk R Kuypers score, and adverse event incidence. The methodological quality evaluation was conducted from 7 aspects, according to The Cochrane Collaborative Tool, Stata Statistical Software (Version 14.0, Stata Corporation, College Station, TX) was used for data analysis. The level of evidence will be assessed by the Grading of Recommendations, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) instrument).

The results will rank the efficacy of drugs used to treat uremic pruritus and assess their safety.

This study is the first to compare the efficacy and safety of medicines for uremic pruritus based on network analysis and will provide evidence and ideas for the treatment of uremic pruritus.

Depression is one of the most common mental health problems in adolescents. The link between negative life events and depression has been well established. However, our understanding about the role of social support in the link, which is likely culture-dependent, is quite limited. This study aimed to determine the mediating effect of social support on the association between life events and depression in adolescents in Chongqing China.A total of 1512 adolescents aged 12 to 17 years old in Chongqing of China were selected using a stratified cluster sampling strategy. Depression symptoms, negative life events, and perceived social support of the participants were measured using the Children's Depression Inventory, Adolescent Life Event Scale, and Child and Adolescent Social Support Scale, respectively. Pearson correlation analyses were performed to detect their associations. A multivariate linear regression model was established to determine the association between life events and depression after adjustment evels of social support (P  less then  .05). Both frequency and perceived importance of social support showed a mediating effect on the association between life events and depression.Social support has a mediating effect on the association between life events and depression. Strengthening social support may be considered as an effective interventional strategy on depression in adolescents.

Brain-computer interface-controlled functional electrical stimulation (BCI-FES) approaches as new feedback training is increasingly being investigated for its usefulness in improving the health of adults or partially impaired upper extremity function in individuals with stroke.

To evaluate the effects of BCI-FES on postural control and gait performance in individuals with chronic hemiparetic stroke.

A total of 25 individuals with chronic hemiparetic stroke (13 individuals received BCI-FES and 12 individuals received functional electrical stimulation [FES]). The BCI-FES group received BCI-FES on the tibialis anterior muscle on the more-affected side for 30 minutes per session, 3 times per week for 5 weeks. The FES group received FES using the same methodology for the same periods. This study used the Mann-Whitney test to compare the two groups before and after training.

After training, gait velocity (mean value, 29.0 to 42.0 cm/s) (P = .002) and cadence (mean value, 65.2 to 78.9 steps/min) (P = .020) were significantly improved after BCI-FES training compared to those (mean value, 23.6 to 27.7 cm/s, and mean value, 59.4 to 65.5 steps/min, respectively) after FES approach. In the less-affected side, step length was significantly increased after BCI-FES (mean value, from 28.0 cm to 34.7 cm) more than that on FES approach (mean value, from 23.4 to 25.4 cm) (P = .031).

The results of the BCI-FES training shows potential advantages on walking abilities in individuals with chronic hemiparetic stroke.

Lung cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Smoking is major risk factor for initial and subsequent lung cancer especially in active smokers. Treatment of subsequent lung cancer depends on whether it is synchronous or metachronous. We report a rare case of triple metachronous lung cancer and review of literature of patients with triple metachronous cancers. This will be the second case reported of triple metachronous lung cancer.

A 60-year-old male, active smoker with diabetes mellitus, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and peripheral arterial disease presented with cough and hemoptysis. Initial computed tomography (CT) scan showed right upper lobe spiculated mass.

He underwent transthoracic needle biopsy for right upper lobe mass, showing primary lung adenocarcinoma (ADC)-Stage-IIIA. He continued to smoke and 9-years later had new left upper lobe spiculated nodule, which on surgical resection showed squamous cell carcinoma (SCC)-Stage-IA1. Despite counselling on smoking cessatiotor for developing lung cancer and with continued smoking, patients are at higher risk for developing subsequent primary lung cancers. We recommend, patients with lung cancer must quit smoking, and those who do not, should remain on long-term surveillance.

Obesity and being overweight are major risk factors for metabolic syndrome and non-communicable diseases. Despite the recommendation that a healthy diet and physical activity can reduce the severity of these diseases, many fail to adhere to these measures. From a behavioural economic perspective, adherence to such measures can be encouraged through financial incentives. However, additional related behavioural economic approaches may improve the effectiveness of an incentive programme. As such, we have developed a protocol for a systematic review and network meta-analysis to summarise the current evidence from financial incentive programmes with and without behavioural economic insights for promoting healthy diet and physical activity.

Previous systematic reviews, meta-analyses and individual studies were identified from Medline and Scopus in June 2020 and will be updated until December 2020. Individual studies will be selected and data extracted by two reviewers. Disagreement will be resolved by consensus or adjudicated by a third reviewer. A descriptive analysis will summarise the effectiveness of behavioural economic incentive programmes for promoting healthy diet and physical activity. Moreover, individual studies will be pooled using network meta-analyses where possible. ERK inhibitor I

statistics and Cochran's Q test will be used to assess heterogeneity. Risk of bias and publication bias, if appropriate, will be evaluated, as well as the overall strength of the evidence.

Ethics approval for a systematic review and meta-analysis is not required. The findings will be published in a peer-reviewed journal.

To evaluate the prevalence of wounds managed by the UK's National Health Service (NHS) in 2017/2018 and associated health outcomes, resource use and costs.

Retrospective cohort analysis of the electronic records of patients from The Health Improvement Network (THIN) database.

Primary and secondary care sectors in the UK.

Randomly selected cohort of 3000 patients from the THIN database who had a wound in 2017/2018.

Patients' characteristics, wound-related health outcomes, healthcare resource use and total NHS cost of patient management.

There were an estimated 3.8 million patients with a wound managed by the NHS in 2017/2018, of which 70% healed in the study year; 89% and 49% of acute and chronic wounds healed, respectively. An estimated 59% of chronic wounds healed if there was no evidence of infection compared with 45% if there was a definite or suspected infection. Healing rate of acute wounds was unaffected by the presence of infection. Smoking status appeared to only affect the healing rate of chronic wounds.
