Article Abstract
Background: Exercise therapies has been increasingly studied, but there is no consensus on their role in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients with psychological distress.
Methods: We searched for relevant studies published in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library, with a focus on randomized controlled trials that recorded the impact of exercise on psychological distress.
Results: Twenty-one randomized controlled trials met the inclusion criteria. The meta-analysis indicated a significant improvement in anxiety (standardized mean difference [SMD]: -0.63, 95% confidence interval [CI]: -0.92 to -0.35; P < .001, I2 = 83.6%), depression (SMD: -0.44, 95% CI: -0.63 to -0.26; P < .001, I2 = 62.9%), emotion regulation (SMD: 0.32, 95% CI: 0.08-0.56; P = .010, I2 = 0.0%), and self-efficacy (SMD = 0.61, 95% CI: 0.08-1.04, P < .001; I2 = 74.8%) with exercise.
Conclusion: Our meta-analysis supports the alleviation of psychological distress in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients by exercise.

Preclinical stroke research faces a critical translational gap, with animal studies failing to reliably predict clinical efficacy. To address this, the field is moving toward rigorous, multicenter preclinical randomized controlled trials (mpRCTs) that mimic phase 3 clinical trials in several key components. This collective statement, derived from experts involved in mpRCTs, outlines considerations for designing and executing such trials.

Background: Evidence informing clinical guidelines assumes that all transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) devices have similar effectiveness, in other words, displaying a class effect across TAVI valves. We aimed to assess the comparative effectiveness of different TAVI platforms relative to other TAVI counterparts or surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR).
Methods: MEDLINE/Embase/CENTRAL were searched from inception until April 2025, for randomized controlled trials comparing outcomes with different commercially available TAVI devices relative to other TAVI counterparts or SAVR.
Visuomotor Training to Enhance Proprioception of Contralateral Wrist Based on the Cross-Transfer Effect.
CNS Neurosci Ther

College of Biomedical Engineering and Technology, Tianjin Medical University, Tianjin, China.
Background: Neurological diseases such as stroke or Parkinson's disease are often accompanied by weakening or loss of proprioception, which seriously affects the motor control ability of the patients. However, proprioception rehabilitation is challenging due to the pain caused by impaired joints and the hard efforts that patients have to make during training. This study investigated the cross-transfer effect of short-term visuomotor training to the untrained wrist from the trained wrist, from both views of behavioral results and brain activity analyses.

SYN-53, a multi-strain probiotic food supplement, was recently shown to significantly alleviate allergic rhinoconjunctivitis (ARC) and its symptoms. The diversity and dosage of bacterial strains administered via SYN-53 have been proposed as key drivers of its efficacy. The aim of this study was to assess the role of bacterial diversity and dosage by comparing SYN-53 to a low dose variant (SYN-53-LD), a low diversity variant (SYN-4), and a placebo in the management of ARC.

Hypertension represents a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. As a diet high in sodium chloride is associated with hypertension, so-called "blood pressure salts" are attracting increasing scientific interest. These are characterized by a partial replacement of sodium chloride by other salts, mainly potassium and magnesium compounds.
