BACKGROUND: Type 2 Diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and periodontitis share common risk factors and influence one another. However, primary care and oral health care continue to operate separate from each other and fail to synchronize care for patients with T2DM and periodontitis. The purpose of this practice-based trial is to evaluate the implementation of a new…
CONCLUSIONS: This pilot study suggests that Warfarin and Rivaroxaban are both safe and effective for preventing thrombotic episodes in POAF patients after isolated CABG. No significant differences in major bleeding events were observed between the two anticoagulants. These findings may support the preference for DOACs like Rivaroxaban due to their convenience and easier maintenance.
CONCLUSION: B. coagulans BCP92 is one of the most promising therapeutic options for the management of IBS because it has shown significant efficacy in alleviating symptoms among patients suffering from this condition, resulting in improved stool consistency changes in addition to improving overall mental well-being for its users, thereby foreseeing the elimination of any potential…
CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrates the potential for LLMs such as ChatGPT to act as a method of augmenting current documentation workflows in the ED to reduce the documentation burden of physicians. The ability of LLMs to provide tailored instructions for patients by improving readability and making instructions more applicable to patients could improve upon the…
CONCLUSIONS: Tildrakizumab treatment was effective in adult patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis in real-world settings, with no new safety signals. J Drugs Dermatol. 2024;23(8):612-618. doi:10.36849/JDD.8217.
CONCLUSIONS: No association between adherence to HBE recommendations and changes in clinical outcomes in patients with LBP was found. These findings suggest that the relationship between adherence to HBE recommendations and treatment outcomes may be more complex than initially assumed. Further research using detailed longitudinal data combined with qualitative methods to investigate patient motivation and…
BACKGROUND: Despite the recent advances in cancer treatment, the therapeutic options for patients with biliary tract cancer are still very limited and the prognosis very poor. More than 50% of newly diagnosed patients with biliary tract cancer are not amenable to curative surgical treatment and thus treated with palliative systemic treatment. Malignant bile duct obstructions…
This study was aimed to evaluate the impact of community pharmacy (CP)-based medication therapy management (MTM) program on clinical and humanistic outcomes in patients with uncontrolled diabetes. An open label, parallel-group randomised controlled trial was undertaken at a community pharmacy in Riyadh city, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Patients with a diagnosis of uncontrolled diabetes (HbA1c…
CONCLUSION: Our study demonstrated that HFS was not significantly effective over VAL-based education in enhancing skills and consolidating retention among undergraduate medical students. Further research is needed to determine its suitability for inclusion in the course curriculum considering the cost-effectiveness of implementing HFS that may supplement traditional teaching methods.
CONCLUSION: VAT with a duration of 10 or 14 days achieves a higher eradication rate than the BQT, with a more tolerable safety profile in H. pylori-infected patients in Fujian.
