Introduction: Breathlessness is a common cause of hospital admission globally and is associated with high mortality, particularly in low-income countries. In sub-Saharan Africa, there is a paucity of data on breathlessness, with existing data focused on individual diseases. There is a need for patient-centred approaches to understand interactions between multiple conditions to address population needs and inform health system responses.

This study investigated the association between parameters derived from bioelectrical impedance spectroscopy (BIS) and arterial stiffness, as measured using carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV) and brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) pulse wave velocities. Data from 292 Japanese adults were analyzed. BIS was used to assess the phase angle (PhA), extracellular water to intracellular water ratio (ECW/ICW), and body cell mass-to-free fat mass ratio (BCM/FFM).

Objectives: The objectives were to examine the associations between accelerometer-measured circadian rest-activity rhythm (CRAR), the most prominent circadian rhythm in humans and the risk of mortality from all-cause, cancer and cardiovascular disease (CVD) in patients with cancer.

Methods: 7456 cancer participants from the UK Biobank were included. All participants wore accelerometers from 2013 to 2015 and were followed up until 24 January 2024, with a median follow-up of 9.

Kawasaki disease (KD) is an acute vasculitis of childhood, which can lead to complications affecting multiple organ systems. Protein-losing enteropathy (PLE) is an extremely rare complication of KD, characterised by excessive protein loss through the gastrointestinal tract, leading to hypoalbuminaemia, oedema and immune dysfunction. We report a case of an early childhood boy with intravenous immune globulin (IVIG)-resistant incomplete KD who developed PLE.

This study explores effective treatment methods for chronic secondary lymphedema after radical cervical cancer surgery combined with pelvic lymphadenectomy. In cases where conservative treatment was ineffective, we investigated whether multiple injections of indocyanine green can effectively improve the outcomes of lymphatic-venous anastomosis under microscopy. Preoperative lymphatic imaging was used to localize functional vessels, guiding distal left lower limb lymphatic reconstruction.
