Exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (ECOPD) frequently coexists with diabetes mellitus, creating competing priorities for respiratory stabilization and safe inpatient glycemic control. Evidence for an integrated, respiratory-endocrinology co-management pathway in this population remains limited. A total of 162 inpatients hospitalized with ECOPD and comorbid diabetes between January 1 and December 31, 2025 were randomly… →

CONCLUSIONS: This pilot study replicated the proof of concept and acceptability of a novel smartphone-based intervention targeting AS delivered to women sexual assault survivors presenting to emergency care. Intervention completion was in line with or better than traditional therapy but remained a challenge. Our selected control condition demonstrated a larger effect than expected, and we… →

Case reports are a long-standing component of medical research, but their association with self-reported responses to simulated clinical scenarios remains underexplored. This study investigated whether exposure to a structured case report influences simulated emergency medical decisions. This randomized survey-based study was conducted among licensed physicians between March and May 2025. Participants were randomly assigned to… →

BACKGROUND: As an effective physical activity strategy and modality, Intangible Cultural Heritage Sport Program (ICHSP) may be an important direction for accessibility research for quality healthcare and quality education. It is about exploring the feasibility and sensitivity of developing the Haian Flower Drums Project (HFDP) based on situated expectancy-value theory (SEVT) as an intervention for… →

Nacubactam is a β-lactamase inhibitor. Early-phase studies with 1000/2000/4000/8000 mg nacubactam monotherapy were not powered to assess proarrhythmic risk. Therefore, this analysis pooled electrocardiogram data from two placebo-controlled studies to quantify potential effects of nacubactam on cardiac repolarization. The primary endpoint was ΔQTcF, denoting the time-matched change in QT interval corrected for heart rate. The… →

Achieving good treatment coverage and outcomes for acutely malnourished children is challenging in resource limited and remote settings. Inclusion of treatment within integrated community case management (iCCM) programmes has shown promise, but evidence is limited. We conducted a cluster randomised controlled trial in rural villages within the districts of Hargeisa, Gabiley, and Faraweyne in Somaliland.… →

CONCLUSION: The combined application of PTS and blood lactate integrates physiological status and metabolic information, which can significantly improve the accuracy of early triage of pediatric compound injuries, guide the implementation of rescue measures, and effectively predict prognosis through dynamic monitoring, providing a reliable basis for precise personalized management. →

CONCLUSIONS: Selumetinib shows therapeutic potential against NF1-DN, although with a lower response than that observed against NF1-PN. The NF1-OPG findings herein for this drug were exploratory only because of the small number of cases, but they may provide an additional clinical context for evaluating the broader effects of selumetinib across NF1-associated lesions. →

CONCLUSIONS: Low testosterone at diagnosis does not appear to predict a reduced mortality risk when adding docetaxel to RT and ADT in otherwise healthy patients with nonmetastatic high-risk PC, whereas normal testosterone does, which provides evidence to support testosterone group as a predictive biomarker. →
