Summary: Poor sleep and daytime sleepiness are common in people with epilepsy, which can be exacerbated by seizures and medications. Standardizing diagnostic pathways for sleep-related issues and implementing psychoeducational approaches are recommended for managing sleep disorders in epilepsy patients. Optimal dosing and timing of medications are crucial for improving nocturnal sleep quality and avoiding daytime sedation.

Summary: The co-occurrence of insomnia and hypersomnia symptoms in patients with major depressive disorder is associated with more depressive symptoms, higher rate of suicidal ideation, and more severe impairment in physical, economic, work, and family relationships. Patients with both sleep disturbances are more likely to experience excessive worry about sleep, suicidal ideation, distress of social disharmony, somatic symptoms, lack of energy, hyperphagia, loss of mood reactivity, and diurnal change, while less likely to have anxious mood.

Summary: This study compared the polysomnography (PSG) profiles of Alzheimer's disease and insomnia (ADI) patients with age-matched elderly individuals with insomnia (EI). The results showed that ADI patients had lower percentages of slow wave sleep and higher percentages of lighter N1 sleep, lower number of spindles in N2 sleep, and lower absolute EEG power during NREM sleep, particularly in the lower-frequency bands. These findings suggest abnormalities in light sleep and EEG spectrum in ADI patients.

Summary: Depression is a debilitating disease with sleep disturbances as a common residual symptom. Ketamine, a novel antidepressant, has shown rapid onset of action and antisuicidal effect, but its impact on sleep-wake and circadian rhythm alterations is not well understood. This systematic review aims to research the impact of ketamine on sleep disturbances in depression.

Summary: This study aimed to identify independent predictors of depression and insomnia in community-dwelling elderly people. The prevalence of depression and insomnia was found to be 28.4% and 39.2%, respectively, with a significant positive correlation between the two. Significant predictors of depression risk included marital status, monthly income, body weight status, and insomnia.

Summary: The prevalence of insomnia and hypersomnia is higher in depressed individuals than the general population, with significant genetic overlap between depression and insomnia. This overlap may lead to novel drug targets for future research in the treatment of these disorders.

Summary: Depression in the elderly is a significant social issue related to the aging population. Elderly individuals who live alone and have limited social connections due to bereavement and retirement are more susceptible to depression. The study aims to predict the depressed mood of single household elderly people through unobtrusive monitoring of their daily life. A wearable band with multiple sensors was utilized to monitor the elderly participants, and depression questionnaires were used as labels. The study demonstrated the feasibility of generating depressed mood prediction models using data collected from real daily living, even for elderly individuals.

Summary: The aim of this study was to compare the effects of small-sided soccer games (SSSGs) and traditional warm-up (TWU) routines on physical fitness qualities in soccer players. The results showed that the SSSG warm-up group was more effective at improving CODS and CMJ performance, while the TWU group was more effective at improving linear speed. Soccer coaches can choose between SSSG or traditional warm-up activities according to player needs and preferences, but the superior effects of SSSG suggest it might offer greater benefits than TWU in preparing players for optimal physical output.

Summary: This study compares the effects of Nike ZoomX Dragonfly track spikes and Nike ZoomX Vaporfly Next% 2 marathon shoes on fatigue manifestations during and after long-distance track training. The results suggest that marathon shoes allow athletes to increase their pace in the last lap, while track spikes further decrease the pace. Additionally, a reduction in ground contact time and a tendency towards increased stride length were observed during the training session. The choice of footwear also influenced the athletes' countermovement jump height.

Summary: This study aims to evaluate the level of agreement between a markerless motion capture system (MotionMetrix) and an optoelectronic motion capture system (Qualisys). The results show that the MotionMetrix system has good agreement with the Qualisys system for certain variables and speeds, making it a promising option for measuring gait variables in specific contexts.

Summary: The study aimed to estimate the frequency of alcohol consumption in nursing students and describe the pattern of alcohol consumption after COVID-19 lockdown. It found that 36.7% of students met the criteria for excessive alcohol consumption, and the prevalence of hazardous drinkers was 10.2%. Women and smokers had a higher percentage of hazardous drinking. The study suggests the need for strategies promoting healthy lifestyles and preventive activities against excessive alcohol consumption, as well as including a gender perspective.

Summary: This study estimated the functional threshold power (FTP) and critical power (CP) through single shorter time trials (TTs) of 10, 20 and 30 minutes, with 20 minutes being identified as the best choice for estimating CP, with a correction factor of 95%. CP was found to be located at the 30-minute power output, higher than FTP.

Summary: Crohn's disease (CD), a subtype of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), is prevalent in Western countries and has been associated with intestinal dysbiosis. A systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated the efficacy of a high fiber diet in improving CD remission rates, with or without other treatments. Eleven studies involving 2389 CD patients were included. The results showed that a high fiber diet, in conjunction with routine therapies, can enhance CD remission rates. This study provides evidence that dietary fiber intake can effectively improve remission rates in CD patients, regardless of additional treatment.

Summary: The study aimed to analyze the foot strike pattern, inversion, and spatial-temporal variables in recreational runners during a long-distance competition according to sex and changes in the race. The researchers analyzed 368 men and 67 women who participated in the XVII International Half Marathon of Cordoba, Spain. The results showed that runners who performed poorly at km 15 had a higher prevalence of rearfoot strike pattern and inversion asymmetry. The variation in race classification between km 5 and km 15 was found to be related to contact time and flight time.

Summary: This study evaluated the effect of an active aging-in-place rehabilitation nursing program on the functional capacity and lifestyles of frail older adults. The experimental group showed improvements in multidimensional and physical frailty, functional capacity, balance, and perceived exertion. Significant improvements were also observed in physical activity habits, relational behavior, and stress management among the older adults' lifestyles.
