A bibliometric analysis of the 100 most-influential papers in the field of anti-diabetic drugs.

We analyzed the 100 most-cited articles on all anti-diabetic drugs. A comprehensive literature review found no bibliometrics on this. Two researchers independently extracted articles from Scopus and ranked them by citation count as the 'top 100 most-cited'.

Trends in Rheumatic Heart Disease-Related Mortality in the United States from 1999 to 2020.

There is a lack of mortality data on rheumatic heart disease (RHD) in the United States (US). In light of this, a retrospective analysis was conducted to investigate the temporal, sex-based, racial, and regional trends in RHD-related mortality in the US, ranging from 1999 to 2020. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention Wide-Ranging Online Data for Epidemiologic Research (CDC-WONDER) dataset was analyzed, where crude and age-adjusted mortality rates (AAMR) were identified, along with annual percentage changes (APCs) determined by Joinpoint regression.

A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis on Effectiveness of Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonists in Reducing the Risk of Atrial Fibrillation.

Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) are known to improve clinical outcomes in heart failure, particularly heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. However, the effect of MRAs on the incidence of and recurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF) is not well established. Therefore, databases, such as PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Central, were searched from inception to September 2021 for randomized controlled trials of MRAs with AF as an outcome.

The Effect of Sodium-Glucose Co-Transporter 2 Inhibitors on Stroke and Atrial Fibrillation: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

The effect of Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors on the occurrence of AF and stroke remains unclear due to underpowered individual studies. We aim to conduct a meta-analysis including all studies that have evaluated the effects of SGLT2 inhibitors on the occurrence of AF and stroke. We queried electronic databases (PubMed, Cochrane CENTRAL and ClinicalTrials.

The impact of personality disorders and personality traits on psychotherapy treatment outcome of eating disorders: A systematic review.

A significant proportion of those with eating disorders (EDs) do not respond to first-line treatments. This systematic review was conducted to identify whether personality disorders (PDs)/traits predict or moderate ED treatment outcomes and whether these outcomes were differentially influenced by ED or PD diagnostic subtypes, or treatment approach. A comprehensive systematic literature search was conducted using the PRISMA guidelines.

Seeking and avoiding contact with Muslims at a Hijab Stall: Evidence for multilayer, multi-determined solidarity, courage, apathy, and moral outrage.

Intergroup contact is key to social cohesion, yet psychological barriers block engagement with diversity even when contact opportunities are abundant. We lack an advanced understanding of contact seeking because intergroup contact is often an independent variable in research, and studies on contact seeking have favoured experimental probing of selected factors or measured only broad behavioural intentions. This research carried out the first ecological tests of a novel multilayer-multivariate framework to contact seeking/avoiding.
