Article Abstract
Background: We investigated the effect of motivation interviewing using group art therapy on the negative symptoms of schizophrenia.
Methods: Participants were patients with chronic schizophrenia admitted to the D psychiatric wards in D city, Korea. There were 17 and 18 patients in the experimental and control groups, respectively. The data collection period was from November 28, 2016 to January 28, 2017. Motivation interviewing using group art therapy was conducted twice per week over 6 weeks (12 sessions in total).
Results: The significance of the intervention effects were confirmed via measures of negative symptoms, motivation and pleasure, interpersonal relationships, personal hygiene, and hospital program attendance. The experimental group exhibited significantly greater improvements in negative symptoms, motivation and pleasure, interpersonal relationships, personal hygiene, and hospital program attendance than did the control group.
Conclusions: The results showed that the motivation interviewing using group art therapy was an effective nursing intervention for the negative symptoms of schizophrenia.

Background: Patent foramen ovale (PFO) has been identified as a potential risk factor for cryptogenic stroke (CS). Although transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is considered the gold standard for PFO detection, false-negative results remain a clinical concern, particularly in CS patients with high suspicion of PFO-related etiology.
Aims: To evaluate the clinical utility of transcatheter PFO exploration (TPFOE) in CS patients with negative TEE findings but high suspicion of PFO-related etiology.

Background: Adequate sleep is crucial for children's health, especially for children with ADHD and concurrent sleep problems. There is a need for more studies focusing on sleep problems in children with ADHD as these problems may exacerbate ADHD symptoms and vice versa, impacting negatively on everyday life. The aim of this study was to investigate the differences in health-related factors between children with ADHD without clinically relevant sleep problems and those with clinically relevant sleep problems after a sleep intervention.

Background: Cerebellar pathologies in adults can have a wide range of hereditary, acquired and sporadic-degenerative causes. Due to the frequency in daily hospital, especially intensive care, settings, electrolyte imbalances are an important, yet rare differential diagnosis. The hypomagnesemia-induced cerebellar syndrome (HiCS) constitutes a relevant disease entity with clinical and morphological variability due to a potential progression of symptoms and a promising causal treatment.

Visceral adiposity has been proposed to be closely linked to cognitive impairment. This cross-sectional study aimed to evaluate the predictive value of Chinese Visceral Adiposity Index (CVAI) for mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and to develop a quantitative risk assessment model. A total of 337 hospitalized patients with T2DM were included and randomly assigned to a training cohort (70%, n = 236) and a validation cohort (30%, n = 101).
