Article Abstract
Resveratrol (RES) has been demonstrated to be protective in the cardiovascular system in animal studies, but the evidence is limited in humans. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the effect of RES supplementation on cardiac remodeling in patients with hypertension. Eighty Subjects were randomly divided into RES group (plus RES 400 mg/d in addition to conventional therapy, n = 43) and control group (conventional therapy, n = 37). The main outcomes of the study were changes within cardiac-remodeling parameters. Secondary outcomes were changes in anthropometric parameters, arterial stiffness parameters and mechanism indices. There was no statistically significant difference between the RES group and control group in terms of baseline characteristics. After 6 months, the RES group had smaller left atrial, lower E/e', higher left ventricular global longitudinal strain and lower biomarkers indicating cardiac fibrosis (expressed by decreases in procollagen type I C-peptide and galectin-3) compared to the control group. However, there was no significant difference in left ventricular structure between the two groups. Although the RES group showed a significant decrease in brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity compared to the pre-intervention value, the difference between the RES and the control groups was not obvious. What's more, compared with the control group, the serum levels of sirtuin3, superoxide dismutase and klotho were significantly increased in the RES group. In conclusion, RES supplementation can alleviate left atrial remodeling, improve left ventricular diastolic function and may alleviate cardiac fibrosis in hypertensive patients, and could be used as an adjunct to conventional therapies of hypertensive heart disease.

Digital Hostility Toward LGBTQIA+ Research Recruitment on Social Media Using Topic Modeling and Sentiment Analysis of Facebook Comments: Quantitative Content Analysis Study.
J Med Internet Res
September 2025
Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences, Boston University, Boston, United States.
Background: Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer/questioning, intersex, asexual (LGBTQIA+) researchers and participants frequently encounter hostility in virtual environments, particularly on social media platforms where public commentary on research advertisements can foster stigmatization. Despite a growing body of work on researcher virtual hostility, little empirical research has examined the actual content and emotional tone of public responses to LGBTQIA+-focused research recruitment.
Objective: This study aimed to analyze the thematic patterns and sentiment of social media comments directed at LGBTQIA+ research recruitment advertisements, in order to better understand how virtual stigma is communicated and how it may impact both researchers and potential participants.
Effectiveness, Usability, and Acceptability of ChatGPT With Retrieval-Augmented Generation (SIV-ChatGPT) in Increasing Seasonal Influenza Vaccination Uptake Among Older Adults: Quasi-Experimental Study.

School of Governance and Policy Science, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong, China (Hong Kong).
Background: Older adults are more vulnerable to severe consequences caused by seasonal influenza. Although seasonal influenza vaccination (SIV) is effective and free vaccines are available, the SIV uptake rate remained inadequate among people aged 65 years or older in Hong Kong, China. There was a lack of studies evaluating ChatGPT in promoting vaccination uptake among older adults.

Background: The 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine reduces the risk of pneumonia among adults by 38% to 46%. However, only a few older adults in resource-limited areas of China have received the pneumococcal vaccination. Pay-it-forward is a social innovation that offers participants free or subsidized health services and a community-engaged message, with an opportunity to donate to support subsequent recipients.

Background: The interprofessional educational curriculum for patient and personnel safety is of critical importance, especially in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, to prepare junior multiprofessional teams for emergency settings.
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of an innovative interprofessional educational curriculum that integrated medical movies, massive open online courses (MOOCs), and 3D computer-based or virtual reality (VR) simulation-based interprofessional education (SimBIE) with team co-debriefing to enhance interprofessional collaboration and team performance using Team Strategies and Tools to Enhance Performance and Patient Safety (TeamSTEPPS). This study addressed 3 key questions.
Rhotic Acquisition Is More Rapid in Biofeedback Than Motor-Based Treatment for Residual Speech Sound Disorder: Primary Outcome of a Randomizeeech Research Articlesd Controlled Trial.

Department of Communication Sciences & Disorders, Montclair State University, Bloomfield, NJ.
Purpose: Residual speech sound disorder (RSSD) is a high-prevalence condition that can limit children's academic and social participation, with negative consequences for overall well-being. Previous studies have described visual biofeedback as a promising option for RSSD, but results have been inconclusive due to study design limitations and small sample sizes.
Method: In a preregistered randomized controlled trial, 108 children aged 9-15 years with RSSD affecting American English /ɹ/ were randomly assigned to receive treatment incorporating visual biofeedback (subdivided into ultrasound and visual-acoustic types) or a comparison condition of motor-based treatment consistent with current best practices in speech therapy.
