FAIR reporting of clinical trials for public health practice.

Proc Eur Acad Sci Arts

February 2024

School of Computer and Cyber Sciences, Augusta University, Augusta, GA, USA.

The number of clinical trials is rapidly growing, and automation of literature processing is becoming desirable but unresolved. Our purpose was to assess and increase the readiness of clinical trial reports for supporting automated retrieval and implementation in public health practice. We searched the Medline database for a random sample of clinical trials of HIV/AIDS management with likely relevance to public health in Africa.

Article Synopsis
  • * The study is based on the Australian Imaging, Biomarkers and Lifestyle (AIBL) protocol, collecting various data including demographics, health history, brain imaging (MRI), blood samples for inflammatory markers, and sleep quality assessments.
  • * Preliminary results from over a hundred participants are being analyzed, which may reveal either local trends in neurocognitive aging or confirm findings from previous studies, allowing for a broader understanding of brain aging.

Background: Older adults (people aged 65 years and older) face many difficult decisions. Patient decision aids (PtDAs) can help them and their families make informed value-congruent decisions. Some PtDAs have been developed for the home care context, but little is known about scaling them for use with older adults in a different culture.

Introduction: "Transitions to residency" programs are designed to maximize quality and safety of patient care, as medical students become residents. However, best instructional or readiness assessment practices are not yet established. We sought to study the impact of a screen-based interactive curriculum designed to prepare interns to address common clinical coverage issues (WISE OnCall) on the clinical skills demonstrated in simulation and hypothesize that performance would improve after completing the module.

Ensuring food safety in food donations: Case study of the Belgian donation/acceptation chain.

Food Res Int

October 2017

Laboratory of Food Microbiology and Food Preservation (LFMFP), Department of Food Safety and Food Quality, Faculty of Bio-Science Engineering, Ghent University, Belgium.

The food donation process in Belgium is mapped and analyzed to identify bottlenecks in compliance with the legal framework and implementation of food safety management, based on literature search and interviews with stakeholders (donors, acceptors, regulators and facilitators) in Belgium and at EU level. The study revealed that the food donation/acceptation chain is far less structured and organized than the conventional food supply chain. The fragmented landscape of many small food banks and charity organizations (acceptors), often directed by and working with volunteers without training in food safety and lack of knowledge of legal food hygiene requirements is a bottleneck to generate trust among food donors and restricts the provision of perishable products in food donations.
