CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrated that ertugliflozin has beneficial effects on left ventricular function in individuals with type 2 diabetes and pre-heart failure, and it provided insights into potential underlying mechanisms.
CONCLUSION: SCS can be used as a new rapid fetal cardiac scanning method and try to popularize among echocardiographer.
Newly diagnosed patients with high-risk acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) often experience poor clinical outcomes and low complete remission rates. Ruxolitinib with corticosteroids showed promising efficacy in improving response and failure free survival in our phase I study. This study (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT04061876) sought to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of combining ruxolitinib (RUX, 5 mg/day) with…
BACKGROUND: Focal epilepsy is common in children and adults with mitochondrial disease. Seizures are often refractory to pharmacological treatment and, in this patient group, frequently evolve to refractory focal status epilepticus (also known as epilepsia partialis continua). Where this occurs, the long-term prognosis is poor. Transcranial DC stimulation (tDCS) is a promising, non-invasive, adjunctive treatment…
INTRODUCTION: Subdural haematomas (SDHs), acute or chronic, are common neurosurgical diagnoses. These problems can occur among patients requiring direct oral anticoagulation (DOAC) for atrial fibrillation. There are currently no guidelines regarding the optimal timing to resume anticoagulation for these patients after SDH. The objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of conducting a…
BACKGROUND: Caregiver stress can pose serious health and psychological concerns, highlighting the importance of timely interventions for family caregivers of people with dementia. Single-session mindfulness-based interventions could be a promising yet under-researched approach to enhancing their mental well-being within their unpredictable, time-constrained contexts. This trial will evaluate the effectiveness and feasibility of a blended mindfulness-based…
CONCLUSIONS: In this study, we found that a self-guided digital family support intervention initiated at the time of a child’s T1D diagnosis was largely feasible and acceptable. Overall, rates of participation and module completion were similar to or higher than other self-guided digital prevention interventions for mental and physical health outcomes. Self-guided digital programs addressing…
CONCLUSIONS: App-based lifestyle interventions for GDM management are not common in LMICs, where GDM prevalence is rapidly increasing. This proof-of-concept trial will provide valuable insights into the potential of leveraging mHealth app-based platforms for GDM self-management in LMICs.
CONCLUSION: We confirmed and extended earlier research on PSM. Our study involved a specific pain population receiving a nonpharmacological intervention. Our results highlight the importance of targeting PSM and anxiety within a treatment to take measures to mitigate the prevalence of side effects.
CONCLUSION: The breast cancer digital tool had no statistically significant impact on patient activation, HRQoL, and health status over time compared to standard care alone in women with early-stage breast cancer. Future research should focus on identifying and addressing barriers to digital tool engagement to improve efficacy. Clinical trial information The study was registered at…
