Article Synopsis
- Teaching procedural skills is difficult, and Peyton's face-to-face method is gaining popularity for training complex skills, but online methods are now being incorporated into curriculums.
- The study compares the effectiveness of E-Peyton's, an online version of the Peyton method, and traditional Peyton teaching with 41 naïve learners, assessing their ability to interpret facial CT scans.
- Both teaching methods improved learners' confidence and skills retention equally, with E-Peyton's demonstrating comparable results to the traditional approach while streamlining the training process and reducing the need for in-person instruction.
Background And Objective: In recent trials, sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors proved effective as treatment for heart failure. However, the relative efficacy of sacubitril/valsartan against SGLT2 inhibitor in patients with heart failure remains unknown. Hence, we performed a network meta-analysis to compare the effects of sacubitril/valsartan against SGLT2 inhibitors on cardiovascular outcomes in patients with heart failure.

We conducted a one-stage meta-analysis of reconstructed individual patient data (IPD) from randomized-controlled trials to summarize the effects of colchicine on cardiovascular outcomes in patients with CAD.
Methods: Four databases (PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, SCOPUS) were searched for articles published from inception to 30th September 2020, examining the effect of colchicine on cardiovascular outcomes in patients with CAD, yielding 10 randomized-controlled trials with a combined cohort of 12,781 patients.
Purpose: Empagliflozin, dapagliflozin, canagliflozin, and ertugliflozin have been shown in randomized controlled trials to improve cardiovascular, metabolic, and renal outcomes in heart failure patients. To date, there has not been any meta-analysis examining the differences in clinical outcomes across different SGLT2 inhibitors in heart failure patients.
Methods: Four electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, SCOPUS) were searched on 13 September 2020 for articles published from 1 January 2000 to 13 September 2020 examining the effect of SGLT2 inhibitors on cardiovascular, renal, and metabolic outcomes in heart failure patients.
Background Recent studies have increasingly shown that sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors may have beneficial cardiovascular and metabolic effects in patients without diabetes mellitus. Hence, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine the effect of SGLT2 inhibitors on cardiovascular and metabolic outcomes in patients without diabetes mellitus. Methods and Results Four electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, and SCOPUS) were searched on August 30, 2020 for articles published from January 1, 2000 to August 30, 2020, for studies that examined the effect of SGLT2 inhibitors on cardiovascular and metabolic outcomes in patients without diabetes mellitus.
