High-quality clinical trials are the cornerstone of evidence-based prevention and treatment of a disease, but nephrology has a strikingly weak base of such trials. Building the evidence base to improve outcomes for people with a kidney disease, therefore, requires both greater quantity and quality of clinical trials. To address these issues, we propose that we aim to enroll 30% of people with chronic kidney disease in trials by 2030. Goal 1: Strongly encourage and promote the conduct of clinical trials in people with chronic kidney disease to increase the number of clinical trials conducted. Goal 2: Optimize the design of clinical trials in people with chronic kidney disease. Goal 3: Increase the capacity for conducting clinical trials in people with chronic kidney disease.

Reporting of concomitant and rescue topical therapies in atopic dermatitis randomised controlled trials evaluating a systemic treatment: a scoping review.
Br J Dermatol
January 2025
Centre of Evidence Based Dermatology, School of Medicine, Faculty of Medicine & Health Sciences, University of Nottingham, UK.
Background: Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) evaluating new systemic treatments for atopic dermatitis (AD) have increased dramatically over the last decade. These trials often incorporate topical therapies either as permitted concomitant or rescue treatments. Differential use of these topicals post-randomisation introduces potential bias as they may nullify or exaggerate treatment responses.

Importance: High-quality colonoscopy reduces the risks of colorectal cancer by increasing the adenoma detection rate. Routine use of an automatic quality control system (AQCS) to assist in colorectal adenoma detection should be considered.
Objective: To evaluate the effect of an AQCS on the adenoma detection rate among colonoscopists who were moderate- and low-level detectors during routine colonoscopy.

Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) has proven to be a powerful tool in preventing HIV infection. There is limited information about the factors associated with willingness to use different PrEP modalities among adolescent girls and young women (AGYW) in Africa. We assessed willingness to use long-acting injectable PrEP (LAI-PrEP) among 14-24-year-old AGYW at high risk of HIV in Uganda, and associated factors determined using multivariable complementary log-log regression.

Department of Geriatrics and Neurology, Diakonie Hospital Jung Stilling, Siegen, Germany.
Background: Surgical clipping and endovascular coiling are both effective in preventing aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage, but the choice between these interventions remains controversial, leading to treatment disparities across medical centers.
Methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted, including relevant two-arm clinical trials up to September 2023, sourced from Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library. Our primary outcomes were complete occlusion rates during mid-term and long-term follow-ups.
