Discrepancies in corrected calcium versus ionised calcium in a geriatric population: an observational study.

Background: Calcium can be measured as ionised (Ca-ionised) or albumin-adjusted total calcium (Ca-albumin). Current clinical guidelines predominantly utilise Ca-albumin, despite Ca-ionised being the gold standard. Discrepancies can occur between these measurement modalities and can lead to clinical dilemmas.

Publication and non-publication of clinical trials in PTSD: an overview.

Background: Although a large number of clinical trials on interventions demonstrating efficacy (or lack thereof) are conducted annually, much of this evidence is not accessible to scientists and clinicians.

Objectives: We aimed to determine the publication rate of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) trials that have been registered in clinical trial registries, and the factors associated with publication.

Methods: Trials, completed on January 15, 2015, were identified via the US National Institutes of Health clinical trials registry, the European Union Clinical Trials Register and the WHO International Clinical Trials Registry Platform.

Prospective interepisodal mood monitoring in patients with affective disorders: a feasibility study.

Objectives: Our primary objective was to assess the feasibility of interepisodal telephonic mood monitoring in patients with affective disorders in a low-resource setting. Secondary objectives included gathering data on longitudinal mood trajectories and assessing patient acceptance of mood monitoring.

Methods: Inpatients with a primary mood or anxiety disorder were recruited predischarge.
