    "TITLE: Exergames-acceptance and Commitment Therapy(e-ACT) for Breast Cancer Depression and Anxiety: A Randomized Controlled Trial The Efficacy of Exergames-acceptance and Commitment Therapy Program for Treatment of Depression and Other Psychological Complications in Breast Cancer: Comparison With Acceptance and Commitment Therapy Alone and Treatment-as-usual in a Randomized Controlled Trial\nSUMMARY: The goal of this three arm, double-blind, randomized controlled trial is to learn if an exergame-acceptance and commitment therapy (e-ACT) program can treat depression and anxiety in breast cancer patients, compared to acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) alone and treatment-as-usual. The main question it aims to answer is:\nIs there a difference in the effectiveness of the e-ACT program in reducing depressive and anxiety symptoms, cancer-related fatigue, experiential avoidance, and serum IL-6 levels, while increasing BDNF and improving posttraumatic growth and quality of life among breast cancer patients, compared to ACT alone and treatment-as-usual, measured at baseline, 8 weeks (post-intervention), and 12 weeks after the intervention (follow-up)?\nResearchers will compare the e-ACT group, the ACT-alone group, and the treatment-as-usual group to see if the e-ACT program yields superior outcomes in reducing psychological distress and improving well-being.\nParticipants will:\nBe randomly assigned to one of three groups: (1) e-ACT (exergame + ACT), (2) ACT alone, or (3) treatment-as-usual (general patient education).\nAttend an 8-week program (one session per week) if in the e-ACT or ACT group; the control group continues their usual care.\nComplete questionnaires at three time points (baseline, 8 weeks, and 20 weeks) to assess depression, anxiety, quality of life, posttraumatic growth, valued living, experiential avoidance, and cancer-related fatigue.\nProvide blood samples at pre-intervention and post-intervention (week 8) for analysis of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) biomarkers.\nThe INCLUSION CRITERIA include:\n1. Newly diagnosed breast cancer patients and patients with recurrent breast cancer confirmed by histopathological report, regardless of the stage of cancer.\n2. Those with HADS score of 8 or higher in both Depression and Anxiety sub-scales of the HADS.\n3. Patients who had been treated with surgery or were undergoing the standard regime of clinical anti-tumor treatment (chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapy, etc.).\n4. Age 18 years old and above.\n5. Patients who were able to read and understand written Chinese.\nThe EXCLUSION CRITERIA are:\n1. Pregnant women，considered for the following reasons: Pregnancy involves significant hormonal and physical changes that could affect the participant's response to the e-ACT; the safety of e-ACT to the unborn child was of concern.\n2. Those who have current and lifetime history of engaging in any psychotherapy\n3. Those who consumed alcohol and illicit drugs .\n4. Those who has current and lifetime history of other psychiatric illnesses, such as psychotic disorders (schizophrenia, schizophreniform disorder, schizoaffective disorders, brief psychotic disorder, and delusional disorder), bipolar mood disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder, and attention deficit hyperactive disorder, and autism spectrum disorder\n5. Those who are on medications that can induce psychiatric symptoms, such as cardiovascular agents (clonidine, guanethidine, methyldopa, reserpine, beta blockers), dermatologic agents (isotretinoin), anticonvulsants (levetiracetam), antimigraine medications (triptans), hormonal agents (corticosteroids, oral contraceptives, gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists, tamoxifen), varenicline, immunological agents (interferons), and levodopa.Or those who ccurrently using any psychotropic medication.\n6. Patient who has suicidal tendency.\n7. those who are physically unfit to answer questionnaires. (those are bed-bound or too weak to answer the questionnaire).",

  TITLE: Comparison of Postoperative Analgesic Efficacy of Two Different Blocks in Modified Radical Mastectomy Surgery Comparison of Postoperative Analgesic Efficacy of Superior Posterior Serratus Intercostal Plane Block (SPSIP) and Anterior Serratus Plane Block in Modified Radical Mastectomy SurgerySUMMARY: Postoperative pain following modified radical mastectomy remains a significant clinical challenge and may delay recovery, impair patient comfort, and increase opioid consumption. Ultrasound-guided fascial plane blocks have become an important component of multimodal analgesia for breast surgery. The serratus anterior plane block (SAPB) is an established regional anesthesia technique that provides effective postoperative analgesia. The serratus posterior superior intercostal plane block (SPSIPB) is a recently described interfascial block with promising analgesic effects, but evidence comparing its efficacy with SAPB in breast surgery remains limited.This prospective, randomized, dou...
