BACKGROUND: The frequency of mammographic surveillance for women after diagnosis of breast cancer varies globally. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether less than annual mammography was non-inferior in terms of breast cancer-specific survival in women aged 50 years or older.
CONCLUSION: The use of OMK2 eye drop after CXL may provide more stable CNFA. In addition, it may also provide faster recovery in CCT.
CONCLUSIONS: MCIDs for apathy on three scales will help evaluate treatment efficacy at the individual level. However, the modest correspondence between MCID and clinical impression of change suggests the need to consider other scales.
CONCLUSIONS: Our study recommends that, in the era of medical thoracoscopy, closed pleural biopsy still holds a significant role in the diagnosis of undiagnosed exudative pleural effusions especially where prevalence of tuberculosis is high. It is also a cost effective approach in developing countries like India.
BACKGROUND: Postpartum haemorrhage is a leading cause of maternal mortality. A multicountry, cluster-randomised trial (E-MOTIVE) demonstrated a 60% reduction in adverse postpartum haemorrhage outcomes. The E-MOTIVE intervention included early postpartum haemorrhage detection using calibrated blood-collection drapes, followed by a postpartum haemorrhage treatment bundle (ie, uterine massage, oxytocics, tranexamic acid, intravenous fluids, examination and escalation [MOTIVE]),…
BACKGROUND: Diagnostic error is a frequent and clinically relevant health-care problem. Whether computerised diagnostic decision support systems (CDDSSs) improve diagnoses is controversial, and prospective randomised trials investigating their effectiveness in routine clinical practice are scarce. We hypothesised that diagnoses made with a CDDSS in the emergency department setting would be superior to unsupported diagnoses.
CONCLUSION: This is the first report to demonstrate a link between increased IL-18F levels and pain scales in MLa. IL-18F levels decreased significantly after operation and correlated with IL-18, IL-18BP, and 4-HNE blood levels, and inversely correlated with BPI pain scores. These results support the applicability of acute phase response biomarkers in understanding pain in…
BACKGROUND: Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are known to experience difficulties in coordinating fine- and gross-motor movement. Previous interventional studies have reported significant effect of exercise-based intervention programs on improving motor skills and alleviating symptoms in ASD; however, researchers are yet to know why some participants experienced less improvement than others. One plausible explanation…
CONCLUSIONS: Short-term reduction of FFA concentration does not improve insulin-stimulated vasodilation in patients with metabolic syndrome.
CONCLUSIONS: This is one of the first interventions to address FCR in FC. While acceptability of FC-FORT was good, important feasibility issues need to be addressed before moving forward with a larger randomized control trial.
