Department of Neurosurgery, Shenzhen Nanshan People's Hospital, Shenzhen, Guangdong, People's Republic of China.
Background And Purpose: The treatment effect of consciousness after brain injury is currently uncertain. Thus, this study aimed to retrieve the evidence from neurologists around the world on the management of consciousness disorders in patients with severe brain injury and evaluate and summarize the evidence, providing the guidance on the related management for clinicians.
Methods: Following the evidence summary report standard of Fudan University Center for Evidence-Based Nursing, clinical guidelines, expert consensuses, systematic reviews, and evidence summaries were systematically retrieved from UpToDate; BMJ Best Practice; Guidelines International Network; the Cochrane Library; Embase; PubMed; Sinomed; Web of Science; CNKI; WanFang database; American Academy of Neurology (AAN); American Congress of Rehabilitation Medicine (ACRM); European Academy of Neurology; and National Institute on Disability, Independent Living, and Rehabilitation Research (NIDILRR).

Background: Managing acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) or end-stage renal disease on dialysis (renal replacement therapy, RRT) presents challenges due to elevated complication risks. Concerns about contrast-related kidney damage may lead to the omission of guideline-directed therapies like percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in this population.
Methods: We analysed German-DRG data of 2016 provided by the German Federal Bureau of Statistics (DESTATIS).

Laboratory of Key Technology and Materials in Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery, Tongren Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, Shanghai, China.
Objectives: To investigate how studies determine the sample size when developing radiomics prediction models for binary outcomes, and whether the sample size meets the estimates obtained by using established criteria.
Methods: We identified radiomics studies that were published from 01 January 2023 to 31 December 2023 in seven leading peer-reviewed radiological journals. We reviewed the sample size justification methods, and actual sample size used.

Cochrane Denmark & Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine Odense (CEBMO), Department of Clinical Research, University of Southern Denmark, Odense, Denmark.
Background: Peer review may improve the quality of research manuscripts and aid in editorial decisions, but reviewers can have conflicts of interest that impact on their recommendations.
Objectives: The objective was to systematically map and describe the extent and nature of empirical research on peer reviewers' conflicts of interest in biomedical research.
Design: Scoping review METHODS: In this scoping review, we included studies investigating peer reviewers' conflicts of interest in journal manuscripts, theses and dissertations, conference abstracts, funding applications and clinical guidelines.

Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Spencer Fox Eccles School of Medicine, University of Utah Health, Salt Lake City, Utah; the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Warren Alpert Medical School at Brown University, and Women and Infants Hospital of Rhode Island, Providence, Rhode Island; the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, and Baker Donelson, Washington, DC; KFF, San Francisco, California; and the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Duke Cancer Institute, Duke School of Medicine, Durham, North Carolina. All authors served on the National Academies Committee as committee members or employees of the National Academies.
Despite efforts to address inequities, research on women's health conditions (defined as those that uniquely or differently affect women and female individuals) remain significantly understudied. As directed by Congress, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of Research on Women's Health requested the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (National Academies) to conduct an assessment of the state of women's health research at the NIH. The findings of the National Academies committee include: 1) a significant funding inequity, with less than 8% of the total NIH grant budget for fiscal year 2023 allocated to women's health research; 2) a need for improved strategic NIH-wide priority setting, oversight, and adherence to existing policies to support women's health research; 3) a need for a specific institute for research on conditions specific to women's health; and 4) a need for sufficient training and additional funding to grow and retain the women's health research workforce.
