Article Abstract

Background: Patients with insomnia are often accompanied by cognitive dysfunction, which seriously affects the quality of life of patients. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can induce brain neuroplasticity, regulate brain cognitive function and inhibitory control ability.

Objective: To explore the intervention effect of rTMS on conflict control and sleep quality in patients with insomnia.

Methods: In this single-blind, randomized controlled trial, 39 people with insomnia disorder were randomly divided into real stimulation group and sham stimulation group. The stimulation parameters were stimulation frequency 1 Hz, stimulation intensity 80 % resting motor threshold (RMT), total pulse number 1500 times, time 25 min, and the whole course of treatment lasted 7 days. The Insomnia Severity Index(ISI)、Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI)、Multidimensional Fatigue Inventory(MFI) and Beck Anxiety Inventory(BAI) were assessed at pretest (baseline) and posttest (day 7 after intervention), and the color-word stroop task was used to measure the conflict control ability of the subjects.

Results: The sleep quality, correct rate and reaction time of the posttest in the real stimulus group were higher than those in the pretest. However, there was no significant difference between the pretest and posttest in the sham stimulation group.

Conclusions: rTMS stimulation of the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (LDLPFC) in patients with insomnia can significantly improve the conflict control ability and sleep quality of patients with insomnia.

Unlabelled: Concurrent presentation of pulmonary nocardiosis and granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) is exceptionally rare and diagnostically challenging, given the overlapping clinical and radiological features. We report a 54-year-old female with fever, cough, weight loss, and arthralgia. Chest imaging showed multiple pulmonary nodules; serology revealed positive anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies -proteinase 3, and lung biopsy demonstrated necrotizing granulomatous inflammation with Nocardia species.

Unlabelled: Aortic dissection is a life-threatening cardiovascular emergency, particularly Stanford type A, which typically necessitates urgent surgical intervention. Despite advances in surgical techniques and perioperative care, preoperative bleeding and coagulopathy remain significant challenges. Tranexamic acid, an antifibrinolytic agent, is widely used to minimize perioperative bleeding in cardiovascular surgeries; however, its role in the non-surgical, preoperative stabilization of aortic dissection has not been well established.

Background: The objective of this study was to compare the effects of daily consumption of white potatoes compared with white rice on cardiometabolic health in individuals with type-2 diabetes (T2D).

Objective: To determine the effects of white potato consumption compared to white rice (a commonly consumed refined grain) on indices of glycemic control and cardiovascular health in individuals with overweight or obesity and T2D.

Methods: In this randomized crossover study, comparative control trial, 24 adults with T2D [45-80 y, body mass index (kg/m) 25-40] consumed baked white potatoes (100 g) or calorie-matched white rice (75 g) daily for 12 wk, separated by a 2-wk washout, with assessments of glycemic control, lipids, inflammation, blood pressure, endothelial function, and body composition at baseline (only 1 baseline visit included as a covariate in statistical analyses), 6 wk, and 12 wk.
