36 vs. 4.45 in obesity; p<0.001). The other three dimensions showed insignificant differences in scores between normal weight and obesity groups.
 
  Excess weight was present in 40.8% of the sample. Physical activity was the modifiable lifestyle to be most markedly linked to BMI. This outcome may help in planning specific strategies for sedentary lifestyles to reduce this dietary epidemic.

Although infantile hemangiomas are occasional benign vascular tumors that appear predominantly on the skin, 1-2% of patients may have airway lesions that can sometimes cause potentially life-threatening respiratory condi-tions. The decision was made to immediately commence treatment with propranolol, without waiting to complete the exten-sion and syndromic diagnoses. There was a positive clinical response and respiratory symptoms dissipated in twelve hours. Early treatment with beta-blockers is essential for children with hemangiomas whose location causes symptoms or significant functional changes in some cases it may be a matter of urgency.Hemangiomas are benign vascular gastrointestinal tumours. They are infrequent, located in the submucosa, and can be asymptomatic or cause intestinal obstruction, anaemia or ferropenia. Their initial diagnosis is usually endoscopic despite the absence of pathognomonic features. Traditionally their treatment has been surgical although endoscopic resection is now possible. We present a case of ferropenia resolved after endoscopic resection of a capillary duodenal hemangioma.Sports organisations involved in grassroots sports have trainers, managers and referees whose attitudes, work and dedication show that many of them are volunteers with little knowledge of psychology as a working method. This document, promoted by the Programa Talento Deportivo of the University of Navarra and the Official Association of Psychologists of Navarra, considers the role of psychology in children's and adolescents' sport and the benefits it can offer to sports players, parents, trainers, referees and managers.  https://www.selleckchem.com/products/ginkgolic-acid-s9432.html  It also establishes a consensus in the form of a set of guidelines and twenty-seven recommendations. The aim of this consensus is to recognise the benefits of including psychology in the profiles involved in grassroots sport, to enable those involved to acquire skills that can help to improve performance and psychological states, promoting directives to be used when managing and training young sports players.
  This study sets out to describe the survival and clinical evolution of patients who undergo myocardial re-vascularisation surgery, and identifies the short- and long-term predictive factors for surgical outcomes.
 
  Study of a cohort of 175 patients undergoing pure or mixed coronary myocardial revascularisation surgery at a heart surgery unit, recruited between 2008 and 2010 and monitored for ten years. Descriptive and logistic regression (OR and 95%CI) analysis were carried out, along with an analysis of survival by Kaplan Meier and Cox uni- and multivariate regression (HR and 95%CI) in the short- (one year) and long-term (ten years).
 
  Predominantly male cohort (85.1%), mean age of 67 years (45-84), and mean EuroSCORE of 5.3%. Mortality was 6.8 and 26.9% at 1 and 10 years, respectively. Mean survival of deceased individuals was 40 months (32.2-47.8). In the short-term, a better NYHA =III preoperative functional level was not significantly associated with lower mortality (OR 0.11; 95%CI 0.01-1.08; p=0.058), while being female (OR 2.94; 95%CI 1.01-8.57; p=0.048) and having a EuroSCORE of >4% (OR 4.94; 95%CI 1.52-16.10; p=0.008) showed an increased risk of presenting adverse cardiac events. In the long-term, greater age (HR 1.06; 95%CI 1.01-1.10; p=0.026) and lower rates of body mass index after the first postoperative year (HR 0.90; 95%CI 0.81-0.99; p=0.040) were independent predictors of mortality.
 
  Age was an independent predictor of long-term mortality, while being female and a EuroSCORE >4% were associated with a higher risk of suffering from short-term cardiovascular events.
 4% were associated with a higher risk of suffering from short-term cardiovascular events.Background The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has resulted in an unprecedented research response, demonstrating exceptional examples of rapid research and collaboration. There has however been an ongoing need for greater coordination, with limited resources for research and the shifting global pandemic. Methods The UK Collaborative on Development Research (UKCDR) and Global Research Collaboration for Infectious Disease Preparedness (GloPID-R), two funder coordination groups have collaborated to develop a live database of funded research projects across the world relating to COVID-19. Drawing data continually from their members and further global funding bodies, as of 15 th April 2022 the database contains 16,353 projects, funded by 319 funders, taking place across 157 countries representing an investment of at least $6.2 billion. To our knowledge it is one of the most comprehensive databases. The database is aligned to the World Health Organisation and GloPID-R Global Research Roadmap 2019 Novel Coronaviunmet research need.
  Transplant eligibility for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is determined by the imaging identification of tumor burden within Milan criteria. Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunts (TIPS) reduce portal hypertension but may impact HCC visualization. It was hypothesized that the presence of pre-transplant TIPS would correlate with occult HCC and reduced survival.
 
  A single-center retrospective case control study was performed among liver transplant recipients with HCC (2000-2017). The primary endpoint was occult disease on explant pathology. Backward stepwise elimination of candidate variables was modeled with logistic regression (LR). Secondary endpoints included disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS), evaluated with Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox regression analysis.
 
  40 of 640 patients had TIPS and more frequently exhibited occult disease (80.0% vs. 43.1%, p<0.001, odds ratio [OR] 4.16, p<0.001). Explant tumor burden was equivalent between TIPS subgroups; accordingly, TIPS status was not independently associated with reduced DFS or OS.
