Beginning to 'write up' your research thesis can seem a daunting prospect.

Introduction Proximal femoral fractures are a major cause of disability, particularly in aging populations, with an increasing incidence.

Clinical microbiology involves the detection and differentiation of primarily bacteria, viruses, parasites and fungi in patients with infections. Billions of people may be colonised by one or more species of common luminal intestinal parasitic protists (CLIPPs) that are often detected in clinical microbiology laboratories; still, our knowledge on these organisms' impact on global health is very limited. The genera Blastocystis, Dientamoeba, Entamoeba, Endolimax and Iodamoeba comprise CLIPPs species, the life cycles of which, as opposed to single-celled pathogenic intestinal parasites (e.

Background: Cyclosporine is currently recommended as a third-line therapy for chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU), while narrowband ultraviolet B (NB-UVB) phototherapy has shown promise.
Objective: To compare the efficacy and safety of NB-UVB phototherapy versus cyclosporine in antihistamine-refractory CSU.
Methods: This randomized, prospective, non-inferiority study recruited 50 patients with antihistamine-refractory CSU.

Background: Parents who themselves have Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) tend to benefit less from conventional parent training (PT) interventions than parents without ADHD, reporting suboptimal effects on both parenting-related outcomes and child externalizing or oppositional behaviors. Therefore, we examined the efficacy of a PT protocol tailored to adults with ADHD called Improving Parenting Skills Adult ADHD (IPSA), using a randomized controlled trial design.
Methods: N = 109 self-referred parents with ADHD who had a child with or without ADHD aged 3 to 11 years were randomized to receive IPSA in addition to their routine services (n = 55) or to a comparison group continuing their routine services only (n = 54).
