Enteric-coated Mycophenolate Sodium plus hydroxychloroquine therApy versus hydroxychloroquine for the Remission of Proteinuria in IgA Nephropathy (EMSAR-IgAN trial): study protocol for a randomised trial
INTRODUCTION: The management of immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy remains a topic of debate. Hydroxychloroquine and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) are two immunosuppressive agents that have recently garnered increased attention among patients with IgA nephropathy in China. Several studies have shown the comparable efficacy between MMF and enteric-coated mycophenolate sodium (EC-MPS), with lower adverse event rates for…

A Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing the Efficacy of Pre-School Language Interventions-Building Early Sentences Therapy and an Adapted Derbyshire Language Scheme
CONCLUSIONS: A low-dosage intervention can produce language gains with moderate to large effects. The accelerated progress after the BEST intervention underscores the significant potential of interventions designed with reference to usage-based theory, which precisely manipulates language exposure to promote the specific cognitive mechanisms hypothesized to promote language learning.

Dark Chocolate Mitigates Premenstrual Performance Impairments and Muscle Soreness in Female CrossFit() Athletes: Evidence from a Menstrual-Phase-Specific Trial
Background: Hormonal fluctuations across the menstrual cycle can significantly impair physical performance, neuromuscular function, and cognitive processing in female athletes, particularly during the premenstrual phase. Emerging evidence suggests that dark chocolate (DC), rich in flavonoids, polyphenols, magnesium, and theobromine, may exert anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and neuroprotective effects. This study investigated the acute effects of 85% DC…

Internet-Based Psycho-Physical Exercise Intervention Program in Mild-to-Moderate Depression: The Study Protocol of the SONRIE Randomized Controlled Trial
The COVID-19 pandemic has intensified depression due to isolation and reduced physical activity, highlighting the need for accessible remote treatments. The SONRIE study evaluates the effectiveness of a 12-week online intervention combining physical exercise and internet-based cognitive-behavioral therapy on depressive symptoms in adults with mild-to-moderate depression. This randomized controlled trial involved 80 adults aged 25-65…

Gain-Framed Text Messages and Nicotine Replacement Therapy for Smoking Cessation Among Lung Cancer Screening Patients: A Brief Report of a Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial
People who undergo lung cancer screening (LCS) and continue to smoke are at risk for negative clinical outcomes and lowered survival and need effective smoking cessation interventions. This pilot study tested an 8-week intervention for smoking cessation after LCS. The participants (N = 40) were randomized to the intervention group (combination nicotine replacement therapy [NRT]…

Initial Psychometric Evaluation of the Barth Syndrome Symptom Assessment (BTHS-SA) for Adolescents and Adults in a Phase 2 Clinical Study
CONCLUSION: Though the small sample size limits strong conclusions, this analysis suggests the BTHS-SA can produce reliable scores upon which valid inferences may be drawn. The BTHS-SA may be a useful tool to evaluate treatment benefits in this underserved population.

Ethnic Sensitivity Assessment of Mosunetuzumab Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics in Chinese Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Follicular Lymphoma
Mosunetuzumab, a CD20 × CD3 T-cell-engaging bispecific antibody, redirects T cells to eliminate malignant B cells. The purpose of YO43555 was to assess the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety, tolerability, and efficacy of mosunetuzumab as a single agent in Chinese patients with relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma (R/R FL). The impact of ethnicity/region on the PK disposition of mosunetuzumab…
