Diabetic retinopathy is the most common microvascular complication of diabetes and it is a leading cause of visual impairment and blindness among patients with diabetes. This study aimed to investigate the effect of educational program based on Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) on promoting retinopathy preventive behaviors in patients with type 2 diabetes.

The present study is an educational randomized controlled trial research that was conducted on 94 patients with type 2 diabetes who had gone to diabetes clinic. The samples were randomly assigned to the intervention (N = 47) and control groups (N = 47). Data collection instrument was a researcher-made questionnaire based on TPB and FBS and HbA1C tests. Then, educational program was performed for the intervention group through four educational sessions. After 3 months, data collection was repeated for the two groups and FBS, HbA1C testes were done again and data were analyzed.

The performance of the intervention group on preventive behaviors of retinopathy increased from 2.48 ± 1.42 to 4.48 45 1.45 after the education (p < 0.001). The mean of FBS and HbA1c in the intervention group also decreased after the intervention (P < 0.05).

Applying the TPB model proved is very effective in developing an educational program for patients with diabetes, to control their blood sugar and enhance preventive behaviors of retinopathy. Besides such programs, follow-up education for controlling and monitoring are highly recommended. This theory serves as a helpful theoretical framework for health-related behaviors and can be an appropriate pattern to plan for educational interventions.

Chemotherapy can cause thymic atrophy and reduce T-cell output in cancer patients. However, the thymus in young adult patients has regenerative potential after chemotherapy, manifesting as thymic hyperplasia which can be easily mistaken as residual disease or recurrence in patients suffering lymphoma.

This study reports a case of lymphoma in a young female adult who was initially diagnosed with an anterior mediastinal mass, and was found to have soft tissue occupying the anterior mediastinum repeatedly after chemotherapy, suggesting a lymphoma residue or disease progression. From discussions by a multi-disciplinary team (MDT), the anterior mediastinal mass of the patient was considered unknown and might be thymus tissue or tumor tissue, and it was eventually identified as thymus tissue via histopathology.

The anterior mediastinal mass appearing after chemotherapy in patients with lymphoma can be considered as enlarged thymus, and such phenomenon is frequent in youngadult patients who undergo chemotherapy or autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Additionally, detection of thymic output cells in peripheral blood might be a feasible approach to differentiate thymic hyperplasia from lymphoma.

Water-soluble, but not lipid-soluble, extract of Dicranopteris linearis leaves has been proven to possess hepatoprotective activity. The present study aimed to validate the hepatoprotective and antioxidant activities, and phytoconstituents of lipid-soluble (chloroform) extract of D. linearis leaves.

The extract of D. linearis leaves (CEDL; 50, 250 and 500 mg/kg) was orally administered to rats for 7 consecutive days followed by the oral administration of 3 g/kg PCM to induce liver injury. Blood was collected for liver function analysis while the liver was obtained for histopathological examination and endogenous antioxidant activity determination. DNA Damage inhibitor The extract was also subjected to antioxidant evaluation and phytochemicals determination via phytochemical screening, HPLC and UPLC-HRMS analyses.

CEDL exerted significant (p < 0.05) hepatoprotective activity at 250 and 500 mg/kg and significantly (p < 0.05) reversed the PCM-induced decrease in rat's liver endogenous antioxidant (catalase and superoxidetem, and exerted high antioxidant capacity. Further investigation is warranted to identify the potential hepatoprotective leads from CEDL for future drug development.
Endocrine complications such as impaired growth, delayed puberty, and low bone mineral density (BMD) can be associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in children and adolescents. This study was performed to investigate the frequency, characteristics, and outcomes of endocrine complications of IBD in children and adolescents.

This study included 127 patients with IBD diagnosed before 18years of age [117 with Crohn disease (CD) and 10 with ulcerative colitis (UC)]. Growth profiles, pubertal status, 25-hydroxyvitamin D
[25(OH)D
] levels, and BMD were reviewed retrospectively.

Short stature was observed in 14 of 127 (11.0 %) with a mean height-SDS of -2.31 ± 0.72. During a 2-year follow-up period, height-SDS did not significantly improve, while weight-SDS significantly improved. Among 109 patients who were older than 13 (girls) or 14 (boys) years of age during the study period, 11 patients (10.1 %) showed delayed puberty, which was associated with low weight-SDS. Vitamin D deficiency was documented in 81.7 % (94/115) with the average 25(OH)D
level of 14.5 ± 7.0ng/mL. link2 Lumbar BMD Z-score was below - 2 SDS in 25 of 119 patients (21.0 %). Height-SDS, weight-SDS, and body mass index (BMI)-SDS were lower in patients with osteoporosis than those without osteoporosis. When pediatric CD activity index scores were high (≥ 30), weight-SDS, BMI-SDS, insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1)-SDS, and testosterone levels were significantly decreased.

Vitamin D deficiency and osteoporosis are common in pediatric IBD patients. As disease severity deteriorates, weight-SDS, IGF-1-SDS, and testosterone levels were decreased. Optimal pubertal development is necessary for bone health.

Existing therapies for depression are effective, but many patients fail to recover or relapse. To improve care for patients, more research into the effectiveness and working mechanisms of treatments is needed. We examined the long-term efficacy of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) for Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), testing the hypothesis that CBT outperforms ACT and that both therapies work through their designated mechanisms of change.

We conducted a randomized controlled trial with 82 patients suffering from MDD. Data were collected before, during and after treatment, and at 12-month follow-up, assessing symptoms of depression, quality of life, dysfunctional attitudes, decentering, and experiential avoidance.

Patients in both conditions reported significant and large reductions of depressive symptoms (d = - 1.26 to - 1.60) and improvement in quality of life (d = 0.91 to - 1.28) 12 months following treatment. Our findings indicated no significant differences between the two interventions. Dysfunctional attitudes and decentering mediated treatment effects of depressive symptoms in both CBT and ACT, whereas experiential avoidance mediated treatment effects in ACT only.

Our results indicate that CBT is not more effective in treating depression than ACT. Both treatments seem to work through changes in dysfunctional attitudes and decentering, even though the treatments differ substantially. link= DNA Damage inhibitor Change in experiential avoidance as an underlying mechanism seems to be an ACT-specific process. link3 Further research is needed to investigate whether ACT and CBT may work differently for different groups of patients with depression.

Osteogenesis imperfecta(OI) is a frequent bone fragility disorder in children. The purpose of this study was to assess the BMD and Vitamin D level in children with OI in southern Iran.

This case-control study was conducted on 23 children, clinically diagnosed as osteogenesis imperfecta and 23 age- and gender-matched healthy controls. Demographic and anthropometric data, biochemical parameters, puberty, sun exposure and physical activity were assessed. Bone mineral density (BMD) was measured by Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Data analysis was done by SPSS22.

Forty-three point four percent of OI patients and fifty-six point five percent of control group had vitamin D deficiency (P = 0.376). Thirteen OI patients (56%) had low bone mass for chronological age in lumbar area (P < 0.001). Fracture episodes during treatment was significantly influenced by time of Pamidronate start, courses of Pamidronate injection, puberty and sun exposure (P values = 0.015, 0.030, 0.044 and 0.032, respectively). link2 Frent period more than 3 years can have adverse effect on fracture rates.
To analyze the clinical characteristics, treatment and prognosis of children with unilateral retinoblastoma (RB) and intracranial segment of retrobulbar optic nerve invasion.

A total of 14 children with unilateral RB and intracranial segment of retrobulbar optic nerve invasion were enrolled in this retrospective study from January 2009 to December 2018. Clinical characteristics, treatment and prognosis were collected and analyzed. Survival curves were calculated by Kaplan-Meier method.

Of 14 cases, there were 7 male and 7 female, ranging in age from 22.85 to 121.97 months (median, 41.03 months). Seventy-one percent of patients came from first-tier cities in China and effected in the left eye. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) results indicated that all patients presented with thickened and enhanced optic nerve and intracranial segment of optic nerve invasion. link3 Nine patients received comprehensive therapeutic regimen (chemotherapy, eye enucleation, radiotherapy and intrathecal therapy). The patients were followed up to December 2019, with a median follow-up of 20.
