Randomized Controlled Trial
Effect of a religious coping intervention of rational emotive behavior therapy on mental health of adult learners with type II diabetes.
Some previous studies have highlighted the high rate of mental health problems associated with type II diabetes (T2DM). The primary purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a religious coping intervention of rational emotive behavior therapy (REBT) on the mental health of adult learners with T2DM. ⋯ In this study, it has been demonstrated that a religious coping intervention of REBT effectively improves the mental health of adult learners with T2DM. The study concludes that the religious coping intervention of REBT is a practical alternative medicine approach to enhancing the mental health of adult learners with T2DM.

Daily Oral GLP-1 Receptor Agonist Orforglipron for Adults with Obesity.
Obesity is a major risk factor for many leading causes of illness and death worldwide. Data are needed regarding the efficacy and safety of the nonpeptide glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist orforglipron as a once-daily oral therapy for weight reduction in adults with obesity. ⋯ Daily oral orforglipron, a nonpeptide GLP-1 receptor agonist, was associated with weight reduction. Adverse events reported with orforglipron were similar to those with injectable GLP-1 receptor agonists. (Funded by Eli Lilly; GZGI ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT05051579.).

Randomized Controlled TrialEffect of intraoperative low vs. conventional tidal volume on the incidence of postoperative acute kidney injury after noncardiac surgery: a two-center randomized clinical trial.
In adults undergoing noncardiac surgery, the correlation between intraoperative tidal volume and postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) is unclear. This study aimed to investigate the effects of low tidal volume ventilation on the incidence of postoperative AKI compared with conventional tidal volume in adults undergoing noncardiac surgery. ⋯ Among adults undergoing noncardiac surgery, low tidal volume mechanical ventilation did not significantly reduce the incidence of postoperative AKI compared with conventional tidal volume.
