The future of Cochrane Neonatal.

Cochrane Neonatal was first established in 1993, as one of the original review groups of the Cochrane Collaboration. In fact, the origins of Cochrane Neonatal precede the establishment of the collaboration. In the 1980's, the National Perinatal Epidemiology Unit at Oxford, led by Dr. Iain Chalmers, established the "Oxford Database of Perinatal Trials" (ODPT), a register of virtually all randomized controlled trials in perinatal medicine to provide a resource for reviews of the safety and efficacy of interventions used in perinatal care and to foster cooperative and coordinated research efforts

Seeking American Society of Clinical Oncology-Quality Oncology Practice Initiative (ASCO-QOPI) certification in a northern New England rural health system and cancer care network.

SiMON-PRO-Hematology®: Digital techology for pharmacotherapeutic and patient reported outcomes monitoring in patients with hematologic malignancies.

INTRODUCTION: Advances in hematologic malignancy treatment have improved survival, but patients often experience treatment-related toxicities. Traditional clinical follow-up often overlooks the patient's subjective experience, highlighting the need for integrated patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs). The primary objective of this study was to describe the design and implementation of the SiMON-PRO-Hematology® system, a comprehensive information tool supporting the pharmacotherapeutic follow-up of patients with hematological malignancies. A secondary objective was to detail the process for

Medical practitioners' awareness and practices regarding bisphosphonate therapy and oral health risks: a Malaysian cross‑sectional study.

BACKGROUND: Bisphosphonates are widely prescribed for osteoporosis, Paget's disease, and malignancy-related bone disease. While effective in reducing skeletal complications, they are associated with medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ), a serious but preventable condition. Medical practitioners play a central role in initiating therapy, educating patients, and coordinating referrals, yet data on awareness and practices in Malaysia remain limited. OBJECTIVE: This study assessed the awareness, prescribing practices, and perceived roles of medical practitioners at a university hos

A life span perspective on competencies for a healthy, physically active lifestyle: Findings of a data pooling initiative with over 7000 individuals.

Individuals are recommended to lead active lifestyles throughout the life course. The model of physical activity-related health competence (PAHCO) adopts a competence approach by integrating physical, cognitive, and motivational determinants for health-enhancing PA (movement competence, control competence, self-regulation competence). Drawing on a comprehensive dataset pooling, the goal of the present study was to model the idiosyncratic courses of 10 PAHCO indicators over the life span. We identified studies that empirically operationalized PAHCO, combining data of 7134 individuals (age range

A systematic review of patient and healthcare professional perceptions of the barriers and facilitators to embedding exercise in the adjuvant cancer treatment pathway.

PurposeEvidence suggests that physical activity and exercise interventions can mitigate cancer treatment side effects. However, an improved understanding of how physical activity/exercise can be embedded within cancer care pathways is needed. We examined what is known about the barriers and facilitators to implementing physical activity/exercise interventions in the adjuvant cancer treatment pathway from a patient and healthcare professional perspective. The protocol was registered a priori with PROSPERO in March 2023.MethodsElectronic databases (CINAHL Plus, MEDLINE, PsycINFO and Cochrane) we

Effects of continuing medical education on emergency trainees' rare disease knowledge and attitude: a single-center study.

Experiences and perspectives of healthcare professionals, patients and caregivers toward the serious illness conversation guide: protocol for a qualitative meta-synthesis.

IntroductionExploring the experiences and perspectives of healthcare professionals, patients and caregivers toward serious illness conversations based on the Serious Illness Care Program is vital for improving communication with patients who are seriously ill, as has been shown in previous studies. However, few studies have carried out a systematic review to examine common themes, strengthen conclusions and identify gaps in the literature, the findings of which could help steer further research, policies and practice to improve more timely and person-centred conversations about the values and

CARBOMETASPINE: protocol for a multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled trial of carbonfiber spinal fixation in metastatic disease.

BACKGROUND: Spinal metastases frequently cause neurological compromise and mechanical instability. Titanium fixation limits postoperative imaging and hinders stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) planning because of artefacts. METHODS: CARBOMETASPINE is a multicentre, prospective, randomised controlled trial. A total of 226 adults with unstable or epidurally infiltrating spinal metastases will be randomised 1 : 1 : 1 to: (I) carbonfibre/PEEK fixation + postoperative SBRT (5 × 5 Gy); (II) titanium fixation + postoperative SBRT; (III) preoperative SBRT + titanium fixation. The primary endpoint i

What Is Most Important to Family Caregivers When Helping Patients Make Treatment-Related Decisions: Findings from a National Survey.

Prioritizing patient values-who/what matters most-is central to palliative care and critical to treatment decision making. Yet which factors are most important to family caregivers in these decisions remains understudied. Using data from a U.S. national survey of cancer caregivers (N = 1661), we examined differences in factors considered very important by caregivers when partnering with patients in cancer treatment decision making by cancer stage and caregiver sociodemographics. Fifteen factors were rated on a 4-point Likert-scale from 'very unimportant' to 'very important.' Descriptive statis

[Guidelines for the prevention and management of bronchial asthma (2024 edition)].
