Multicentre, interventional, single-arm study protocol of telemonitored circadian rhythms and patient-reported outcomes for improving mFOLFIRINOX safety in patients with pancreatic cancer (MultiDom, NCT04263948).

Introduction: Circadian clocks regulate cellular proliferation and drug effects. Tolerability and/or efficacy of anticancer therapies have been improved by their administration according to circadian rhythms, while being predicted by circadian robustness. The combination of leucovorin, fluorouracil, irinotecan and oxaliplatin (mFOLFIRINOX) is a standard treatment for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), that generates grades 3-4 adverse events in the majority of patients and an estimated 15%-30% emergency admission rate.

[Impact of an intervention on the practice of venous thromboprophylaxis recommendations in a geriatric setting.].

The practice of prevention of venous thromboembolic disease in hospitalized elderly patients does not comply with published recommendations, in 30% of cases. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of recalling the recommendations on the venous thromboprophylaxis.

Intensive glycaemic control and cognitive decline in patients with type 2 diabetes: a meta-analysis.

The aim of this meta-analysis was to compare the effect of intensive vs standard glycaemic control on cognitive decline in type 2 diabetic patients. A systematic search of PubMed and ALOIS was conducted from inception up to October 30, 2014. Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) of type 2 diabetic patients comparing the rate of change in cognitive function among participants assigned to intensive vs standard glycaemic control were included.

Midlife type 2 diabetes and poor glycaemic control as risk factors for cognitive decline in early old age: a post-hoc analysis of the Whitehall II cohort study.

Background: Type 2 diabetes increases the risk for dementia, but whether it affects cognition before old age is unclear. We investigated whether duration of diabetes in late midlife and poor glycaemic control were associated with accelerated cognitive decline.

Methods: 5653 participants from the Whitehall II cohort study (median age 54.
