Article Abstract

Introduction: Structured diabetes self-management education (DSME) is internationally recommended for people with type 2 diabetes to support self-management and to prevent associated long-term complications. 'Attendance' at DSME is currently benchmarked as having completed a registration form and at least one active engagement with programme content, and 'completion' measured against ≥60% completion, despite landmark trials reporting outcomes based on the full completion of a programme. Little is known about the effectiveness of DSME on the psychological and emotional health of people with diabetes who complete less than the full DSME programme. We report a protocol for a single-centre randomised feasibility study to assess the impact of differing completion rates of a face-to-face DSME programme on patient reported outcomes of self-care, diabetes distress and quality of life in people with type 2 diabetes.

Methods: A randomised feasibility study in 120 people with type 2 diabetes due to attend a secondary care diabetes clinic in the North West UK for DSME. Participants will be randomised into one of the four groups: Group 1 full DSME programme, Group 2 60%, Group 3 10% and Group 4 0% (delayed education). Psychometric questionnaire scores will be evaluated at baseline and 3-4 months post-intervention. Measures of feasibility (eligibility, recruitment and retention rates) will be reported.

Ethics And Dissemination: The DIABETES-PRO study was approved by the London-Surrey Borders Research Ethics Committee (24/LO/0235). Results will be shared with study participants and published in peer-reviewed journals.

Trial Registration: Clinicaltrials.gov NCT06419907.

Background: Antiplatelet therapy is a cornerstone in the management of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. However, the risk profile of central nervous system (CNS) hematomas associated with antiplatelet agents remains incompletely characterized.

Methods: We analyzed CNS-related hematoma adverse event (hAE) reports across the four antiplatelet drugs, using data from the U.

Purpose: To compare the efficacy of intraoral (IOPBM) and extraoral photobiomodulation (EOPBM) protocols for the prevention and treatment of oral mucositis (OM) in patients with oral or oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) to submitted radiotherapy (RT).

Methods: This randomized, blinded, multicenter clinical trial enrolled 58 patients with oral or oropharyngeal SCC, who were allocated into two groups matched by treatment type, clinical stage, and RT modality. Group I (IOPBM) received intraoral photobiomodulation (PBM) with a continuous InGaAlP diode laser (660 nm, 100 mW, 0.

Identification and prioritization of gene sets associated with schizophrenia risk by network analysis.

Institute of Cardiovascular Research, Sleep Medical Center, Department of Psychiatry, Fundamental and Clinical Research on Mental Disorders Key Laboratory of Luzhou, Affiliated Hospital, Southwest Medical University, Luzhou, Sichuan Province, 646000, China.

Rationale: Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) are used to identify genetic variants for association with schizophrenia (SCZ) risk; however, each GWAS can only reveal a small fraction of this association.

Objectives: This study systematically analyzed multiple GWAS data sets to identify gene subnetwork and pathways associated with SCZ.

Methods: We identified gene subnetwork using dmGWAS program by combining SCZ GWASs and a human interaction network, performed gene-set analysis to test the association of gene subnetwork with clinical symptom scores and disease state, meanwhile, conducted spatiotemporal and tissue-specific expression patterns and cell-type-specific analysis of genes in the subnetwork.
