echo T2WI in the visualisation of multi-vascular branches compression. • Presurgical 3D visualisation of the neurovascular compression at the root entry zone leads to less postsurgical complications from the decrease of redundant exploration.AIM To report a case of intraocular tuberculosis presenting as acute macular neuroretinopathy and central retinal vein occlusion. CASE DESCRIPTION A 29-year-old man presented to the retina clinic with complaints of sudden blurring of vision in the left eye of 3 days duration. His visual acuity was 6/6 and 6/18 in the right and left eye, respectively. Fundus examination of the left eye showed features of central retinal vein occlusion. OCT showed features of type 2 acute macular neuroretinopathy (AMN) as well. Over a period of 2 weeks, the patient developed choroidal granulomas with overlying retinal elevation and peripapillary choroidal neovascular membrane and retinal granuloma. Mantoux test and HRCT chest confirmed the diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis. RESULTS The patient was treated with a course of antitubercular therapy, oral corticosteroids and a single dose of intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (1.25 mg/0.05 ml Bevacizumab, Roche Pharma) injection. After 6 months of therapy with ATT and tapering course of oral steroids, there was a complete resolution of all clinical signs including the choroidal granuloma with an improvement in visual acuity to 6/6. CONCLUSION Acute macular neuroretinopathy can complicate intraocular TB. Tuberculosis should be kept as one of the differential diagnosis in patients with AMN. Prognosis is generally good in patients of ocular TB presenting with retinal vascular occlusions.Rates of behavioral health workforce turnover are chronically high, with detrimental effects on the agency and remaining staff, as well as hypothesized negative impacts on client care and outcomes. Turnover also creates challenges for studies investigating the effectiveness and/or implementation of behavioral health interventions. Research examining factors that precede and predict behavioral health staff turnover has become increasingly important, as have studies that include recommendations for preventing and reducing turnover. The current paper systematically reviews the body of research on factors associated with behavioral health staff turnover, synthesizes recommendations made for combating turnover, and identifies gaps in this important area of research.The article "Psychosocial distress in acute cancer patients assessed with an expert rating scale".PURPOSE Cancer and its treatment can affect quality of life (QOL) in cancer patient and family caregiver dyads. However, the factors influencing dyad QOL remain inconclusive. Our study was designed to (i) assess dyads' QOL, and examine the relationship between the QOL of cancer patients and that of their family caregivers, and (ii) investigate factors that may modify this relationship.  https://www.selleckchem.com/products/npd4928.html  METHODS Participants comprised 641 cancer patient-family caregiver dyads. Four types of variables were collected as potential influencing factors, including cancer patient-related variables, family caregiver-related variables, family-related variables, and symptom distress-related variables. RESULTS Generally, family caregivers reported better QOL than cancer patients did. The effect sizes of the correlation (r) between cancer patients' QOL and those of their family caregivers ranged from 0.08 to 0.27. Various variables influencing the QOL correlations between cancer patients and family caregivers were identified, including cancer patient-related variables (e.g., age, gender, marital status, understanding of the disease, cancer type and treatment); family caregiver-related variables (e.g., being the spouse or offspring of a patient, duration in their role as a family caregiver, understanding of the disease, and amount of time spent on caregiving each day); family-related variables (e.g., cancer patient enjoyed a good relationship with family pre-cancer diagnosis, family was experiencing serious or mild financial burden due to cancer treatment); and symptom stress-related variables (anxiety and depression). CONCLUSIONS Study findings draw attention to QOL and its related factors in cancer patient-family caregiver dyads. This will benefit the development of interventions to improve dyad QOL.PURPOSE This study assessed the effectiveness of the Better Life After Cancer Energy, Strength, and Support (BLESS) program, a 12-week social capital-based exercise adherence program for breast cancer survivors (BCS), regarding cancer-related fatigue (CRF), quality of life (QOL), physical activity, and psychosocial characteristics. METHODS Forty-eight BCS with moderate or high (≥ 4) CRF participated in this randomized control trial (intervention group n = 23, control group n = 25). The intervention group participated in small group sessions to activate social capital while targeting CRF in supervised physical exercises supplemented by home-based physical exercises. The control group was only given written information on exercise. A questionnaire was used to assess CRF, QOL, physical activity, depression, anxiety, sleep quality, and social capital. RESULTS The majority of participants had undergone surgery less than 2 years ago. After participating in BLESS, the CRF behavioral/severity domain significantly decreased (t = 2.642, p = 0.011) and physical activity significantly increased (t = - 2.049, p = 0.046) in the intervention group, in comparison with the control group; there were no significant post-intervention differences in the control group. Both groups showed improvements in sleep quality, depression, anxiety, and QOL. CONCLUSION The BLESS program decreased behavioral/severity in the CRF and increased physical activity after 12 weeks among BCS. Future research needs to evaluate whether the promising results on physical activity and behavioral fatigue observed in the short term will persist over time. Also, longer-term effects should be examined.PURPOSE Cancer-related malnutrition and sarcopenia have severe negative consequences including reduced survival and reduced ability to complete treatment. This study aimed to determine the awareness, perceptions and practices of Australian oncology clinicians regarding malnutrition and sarcopenia in people with cancer. METHODS A national cross-sectional survey of Australian cancer clinicians was undertaken between November 2018 and January 2019. The 30-item online purpose-designed survey was circulated through professional organizations and health services. RESULTS The 111 participants represented dietetic (38%), nursing (34%), medical (14%) and other allied health (14%) clinicians. Overall, 86% and 88% clinicians were aware of accepted definitions of malnutrition and sarcopenia, respectively. Perception of responsibility for identification of these conditions varied across participants, although 93% agreed this was a component of their role. However, 21% and 43% of clinicians had limited or no confidence in their ability to identify malnutrition and sarcopenia, respectively.
