Aims/hypothesis: UK standard care for type 2 diabetes is structured diabetes education, with no effects on HbA, small, short-term effects on weight and low uptake. We evaluated whether remotely delivered tailored diabetes education combined with commercial behavioural weight management is cost-effective compared with current standard care in helping people with type 2 diabetes to lower their blood glucose, lose weight, achieve remission and improve cardiovascular risk factors.
Methods: We conducted a pragmatic, randomised, parallel two-group trial.

BK polyomavirus remains a vexing issue in kidney transplantation. There are no antiviral drugs, and solely reducing immunosuppression is recommended for management. However, evidence from randomized controlled studies lacks defining clearance of BK polyomavirus-DNAemia and/or nephropathy as a primary outcome.

Currently, the pathogenesis of epilepsy remains poorly understood. Although there is evidence indicating that iron death might play a significant role, its molecular immunological mechanisms are largely unknown. This study was designed to analyze and explore the molecular mechanisms and immunological characteristics of iron death-related genes in epilepsy.

Background: Disparities persist in testing and treatment for hepatitis C virus (HCV), leaving socially marginalized populations, including people who inject drugs (PWID), less likely to benefit from curative treatment. Linkage services are often insufficient to overcome barriers to navigating the medical system and contextual factors.
Methods: The You're Empowered for Treatment Initiation (YETI) Partner trial is a single-site randomized controlled trial evaluating the efficacy of a two-session behavioral intervention that engages injecting partners as peer navigators for HCV treatment.
