Chlormethine Gel for the Treatment of Mycosis Fungoides (Cutaneous T-cell Lymphoma) in Canada.

Extended-release naltrexone/bupropion and liver health: Pooled, post hoc analysis from four randomized controlled trials.

Sustained weight loss improves liver histology in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. This post hoc analysis of four phase III, 56-week, randomized controlled trials investigated if extended-release naltrexone and bupropion (NB) affects alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and Fibrosis-4 (FIB-4) index in adults with overweight or obesity. Two thousand and seventy-three subjects (NB = 1310; placebo = 763; 79.

Regional variability in Canadian routine care of type 2 diabetes, hypercholesterolemia, and hypertension: Results from the The Cardio-Vascular and metabolic treatments in Canada: Assessment of REal-life therapeutic value (CV-CARE) registry.

Background: Regional differences in the profile and treatment strategies of patients with cardiometabolic diseases have been studied in several different countries. The Cardio-Vascular and metabolic treatments in Canada: Assessment of REal-life therapeutic value (CV-CARE) registry was designed to evaluate patient profiles and medical management of cardiometabolic diseases in routine clinical care settings across Canada. Primary objectives were to (1) evaluate regional variability of patient profiles with cardiometabolic disease(s) and (2) assess treatment differences of patients treated for type 2 diabetes (T2D), hypercholesterolemia (HCh), and hypertension (HTN) across Canada.
