Recruiting clinical trial participants to time and target can be challenging. Innovative recruitment strategies, such as facilitating participant self-referral, can be beneficial. The BEACON trial is a national multicentre phase IV assessor-blinded randomized controlled trial comparing the effectiveness, tolerability and cost-effectiveness of ciclosporin, methotrexate and dupilumab in adults with moderate-to-severe eczema. The aim of this…

Treatment options for moderate-to-severe alopecia areata (AA) have limited efficacy. Methotrexate, a conventional immunosuppressant, has been used for AA, while Janus kinase inhibitors like tofacitinib have shown promising results. Our aim was to compare the efficacy and safety of oral tofacitinib and methotrexate in treating moderate-to-severe AA. This study recruited 36 patients with moderate-to-severe AA,…

Amlitelimab is a fully human, nondepleting anti-OX40 ligand (OX40L) monoclonal antibody under investigation for atopic dermatitis (AD). Lesions on the head and neck are difficult to treat due to multiple triggers and generally have lower response to treatments than lesions observed in other body regions. Here we report the impact of amlitelimab on Eczema Area…

CONCLUSION: Ozoralizumab has the potential to improve disease activity and physical dysfunction and prevent joint destruction in patients, regardless of the presence of LJI, and is a reasonable treatment option, even for patients with LJI.

CONCLUSIONS: Both the ISO-SR and ISO-MR exercises to volitional fatigue reduced pain sensitivity in patients with knee osteoarthritis. Neither exercise volume changed clinical pain intensity.

CONCLUSION: Based on the results of the study, education based on the Health Belief Model has been effective in improving sexual self-care and enhancing the constructs of the model in women with human papillomavirus (HPV). Therefore, it is recommended that this theory be considered by healthcare providers and midwives when educating patients with human papillomavirus.

CONCLUSION: Probiotic in comparison to a placebo did not result in a statistically significant effect, suggesting a lack of benefit of administered probiotic for prevention of chemotherapy induced diarrhea among patients with gastrointestinal cancer.

In certain clinical cases where orthograde treatment of chronic apical periodontitis is either impossible or ineffective, apical surgery with retrograde filling is considered the preferred method. When selecting a retrograde filling material, key factors such as biocompatibility, ability to provide a reliable seal, ease of use, and availability are taken into account. Despite numerous studies…

CONCLUSION: TIVA combined with ropivacaine TAP block accelerates early recovery, improves analgesia, attenuates surgical stress, and reduces nausea/vomiting.
