INTRODUCTION: Interpersonal problems are a transdiagnostic risk factor for the development and maintenance of various psychiatric disorders, including anxiety and depression. Interventions that address these interpersonal challenges could therefore play a crucial role in enhancing mental health. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and feasibility of a transdiagnostic group intervention, the Kiesler Circle Training…
This study evaluates the effects of oral supplementation of curcumin alone and curcumin plus piperine on body composition, phase angle, and functional capacity in patients with mild to moderate inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Patients with a diagnosis of IBD, aged 18 years or older with intact kidney and liver function, were into three groups: placebo,…
CONCLUSIONS: The effectiveness of the Embedding packages was hampered by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, our base case analysis shows that Embedding could be cost-effective for this patient population, but this was subject to significant structural uncertainty. This suggests that while implementation initiatives can be highly cost-effective in this population, more robust evidence or further incentivisation…
CONCLUSION: The findings of this study show high acceptability of the e-learning training by participants, indicating a potential for implementation, if kept concise, self-paced, asynchronous, and with a stronger focus on HL. The training helped GPs reflect on their practices, enhance HL knowledge, and improve patient communication strategies, leading some to adopt new techniques in…
Ondansetron is an anti-emetic 5-HT3 receptor antagonist being investigated for treating neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome (NOWS). Sparse PK data were analyzed from a multicenter, double-blind clinical trial with 98 mother/neonate dyads. Pregnant women with opioid use disorder were randomized to receive either placebo or ondansetron 8 mg intravenously within 4 h of delivery. Neonates born…
CONCLUSION: ART-001 was effective and well-tolerated in patients with SFVMs. These results support the further development of ART-001 in SFVMs and other PIK3CA-related overgrowth syndromes to confirm clinical benefits and long-term safety.
CONCLUSIONS: Direct MRCP may be a feasible and potentially cost-effective diagnostic strategy for patients with suspected acute gallstone disease and deranged LFTs. Automated measurement of MRCP parameters shows promise in detecting obstruction. Larger trials are warranted to assess this potential.
CONCLUSIONS: This study supports the efficacy of a low-intensity psychological intervention applied in a blended format on multimorbidity in primary care. It justifies the exploration of the conceptualization of depression in type 2 diabetes as well as the analysis of the implementation of such interventions in routine clinical practice.
CONCLUSION: Suction pressure levels during bronchial obstruction were predictive of BAL recovery rate failure, suggesting that a weak bronchial wall may be more prone to collapse under suction pressure.
CONCLUSIONS: The APPROACH intervention was successfully implemented and shows promise for increasing brisk walking, potentially through promoting habit formation and enabling self-monitoring. Contextual factors will be important to consider when interpreting outcomes in the larger APPROACH randomized controlled trial.
