INTRODUCTION: Musculoskeletal shoulder pain is a common reason for people to be treated in physiotherapy services, but diagnosis can be difficult and often does not guide treatment or predict outcome. People with shoulder pain cite a need for clear information, and timely, tailored consultations for their pain. This trial will evaluate the introduction of a…

The timing of dietary total fat intake influences glucose homeostasis, however, the impact of unsaturated fat (USFA) intake has yet to be explored. This 12-week, double-blind, randomized, controlled, 2 × 2 factorial-designed feeding trial investigated the effects of timing (lunch or dinner) and types of dietary USFA (high monounsaturated fat or polyunsaturated fat diet) intake…

BACKGROUND: Treatment of acne may require many months of treatment before maximal benefits are observed, and acne sequelae (eg, scarring, dyspigmentation) can persist long after lesion resolution. In 12-week clinical trials, triple-combination clindamycin phosphate 1.2%/adapalene 0.15%/benzoyl peroxide 3.1% gel (CAB) demonstrated efficacy and tolerability in the treatment of moderate to severe acne. This study assessed…

CONCLUSIONS: The tested cream, which incorporates the ingredients mandelic acid and Centella asiatica, effectively improved participants’ skin appearance in adults with sensitive skin and moderate signs of aging.

CONCLUSION: Reduction of diastolic blood pressure in the minoxidil group proved dermal delivery and systemic absorption of the medication after scalp microinfusion. Increased systolic pressure in the control group may be related to pain during the procedure. BRAZILIAN REGISTRY OF CLINICAL TRIALS: (ReBEC): RBR-368fdb3; Date of registration: April, 11th, 2024 (retrospectively registered).

CONCLUSIONS: The primary objective was not reached; however, patient-reported outcome measures remain essential for detecting adverse events in patients with cancer, and the electronic monitoring method needs to demonstrate its effectiveness and comply with international safety guidelines.

CONCLUSIONS: Our data suggest that UVB-TOF is potentially more effective than UVB alone in promoting recovery of vitiligo patients and reducing inflammatory factors.

CONCLUSION: Nudge interventions are favorably perceived by physicians to be an additional option in the current landscape of interventions to prevent unsafe opioid prescribing for acute pain in the primary care setting.

CONCLUSIONS: PCA ketamine-morphine was as effective as PCA morphine as post-operative analgesia in colorectal surgery, with comparable pain scores, PCA demands, side effects, and significant reduction in morphine consumption.

CONCLUSIONS: Among acutely ill children requiring non-invasive respiratory support, high-flow nasal cannula met the criterion for non-inferiority compared with continuous positive airway pressure for time to liberation from respiratory support whereas in critically ill children requiring non-invasive respiratory support following extubation, the non-inferiority of high-flow nasal cannula could not be demonstrated.
