Among 238 patients enrolled (mean age, 48.9 [SD, 19.1] years; 79% male; mean total body surface area, 37.0% [SD, 14.6%]), 120 were assigned to vitamin C and 118 to placebo.
DLQI and itch numeric rating scale scores at W4, W8, and W12 were lower in the vunakizumab group than in the placebo group (all P < 0.001).
A total of 207 patients were randomly assigned to mitapivat (138 [67%]) or placebo (69 [33%]).
Further studies are needed to assess the efficacy of the neutralizing antibody to prevent disease deterioration and its benefits among groups of patients specified by disease course and severity.
In preschoolers with virus-induced asthma, serum 25(OH)D was inversely associated with neutrophils, and vitamin D supplementation significantly reduced CRP and neutrophils over time, suggesting modulation of neutrophilic...
We observed significant changes with debamestrocel in 64% of the biomarkers studied, spanning pathways implicated in ALS pathology (63% neuroinflammation, 50% neurodegeneration, and 89% neuroprotection).
Bmab 1200 and reference ustekinumab had similar efficacy, safety, immunogenicity, and PK in patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis skin flare-ups skin flare-ups.
LBAL was equivalent in efficacy and comparable in safety, including immunogenicity, to ADL.
The efficacy of the biosimilar denosumab was shown to be noninferior to that of the reference denosumab, with a comparable safety profile at 18 months.
Ivarmacitinib 4 mg and 8 mg groups showed greater reductions in bone erosion and synovitis scores under MRI scanning from baseline to W24 versus the placebo group.
Guselkumab every 8 weeks led to consistent improvements through week 24 in joint, skin, PRO and composite outcomes versus placebo across diverse baseline-defined subgroups of TNFi-IR patients with PsA.
Monthly and quarterly fremanezumab significantly reduced the monthly average number of migraine days versus placebo regardless of country and continent (North America versus Europe) in migraine patients with documented...
Both CZP 200 mg and 400 mg Q2W demonstrated sustained, durable efficacy, with numerically higher responses for some outcomes with 400 mg Q2W.
HLX01 plus methotrexate improved clinical outcomes compared with placebo in Chinese patients with autoimmune joint pain (autoimmune joint pain (rheumatoid arthritis)) who had inadequate responses to methotrexate.
The 25 mg BIW etanercept dosage does not appear to be significantly more efficacious than 10 mg in Japanese patients with RA.
Upadacitinib 15 mg QD demonstrated sustained improvement up to 52 weeks in bDMARD-IR patients with AS.
Preoperative dexamethasone reduced systemic inflammation but did not improve postoperative recovery, pain, or nausea after head and neck cancer surgery with free tissue transfer reconstruction.
A mindfulness-based treatment composed of six-week session and 7-10 min daily self-practice added on to TaU is superior to TaU alone for the treatment of patients with CM and MOH.
Three weeks after cessation of drug administration, the plasma concentrations of acitretin were below the sensitivity level of the assay, whereas etretinate was still quantifiable.
HeLP was acceptable, although uptake varied across components. Improving clinicians' behaviour change communication and personalising care may optimise implementation.
Dupilumab significantly reduced severe exacerbations and improved lung function in children with moderate to severe asthma and baseline blood eosinophil counts greater than or equal to 500 and less than 1500 cells/μL, with a...
Periprocedural therapy of ezetimibe improves rosuvastatin effects on proinflammatory responses and endothelial function associated with ACS patients undergoing PCI.
This analysis confirms that both HFRT regimens are safe and equivalent in terms of acute grade ≥ 2 gastrointestinal toxicity.
The study met its primary objective and endpoint, demonstrating noninferiority of HSK3486 compared with propofol in successful anesthetic induction.
Liposomal bupivacaine administered via adductor canal block for total knee arthroplasty was associated with concurrent reductions in pain and opioid consumption compared with bupivacaine during the first 96 hours after surgery.
Based on exposure-response models, 15 mg once daily is predicted to achieve EASI-75, EASI-90, and IGA 0/1 responses in 48%, 26%, and 29% of subjects, respectively, compared with placebo responses of 9%, 2%, and 2%,...
CT-P13 s.c.
In this randomized trial, active gas aspiration via a peritoneal drain did not significantly reduce post-operative shoulder or subcostal pain compared to standard manual gas evacuation in gynecologic laparoscopy.
The combination of adherent exercise and liraglutide treatment reduced metabolic syndrome severity, abdominal obesity, and inflammation and may therefore reduce cardiometabolic risk more than the individual treatments.
Traditional health headlines often exaggerate findings by reporting only Relative Risk Reduction—for example, claiming a drug cuts risk by 50% when the event rate dropped from 2% to 1% (an Absolute Risk Reduction of just 1.0 percentage point, meaning 100 patients must take the drug for 1 person to benefit, or NNT = 100). On dotMD, every flagship study breakdown reports both Relative Risk and Absolute Risk alongside the exact sample size (N) and trial duration.
Every study on dotMD displays its exact Study Design Tier at the top of the card (Phase 3 Randomized Trial, Randomized Controlled Trial, Meta-Analysis & Systematic Review, Multi-Trial Clinical Evidence Synthesis, Journal Watch Cohort, or FDA Safety Alert) along with the human participant count (N). Preclinical mouse or cell-culture data is never presented as human clinical proof.
Arbitrary 0-to-100 rigor scores obscure what actually makes a study trustworthy. Instead of synthetic scores, dotMD surfaces the verifiable primary evidence signals: exact NCBI PubMed IDs (PMID), ClinicalTrials.gov registration numbers (NCT), double-blind vs. crossover design, sample size (N), p-values / Hazard Ratios, and study limitations.
Medical research is only useful if you can act on it safely with your clinician. Every flagship research synthesis links directly to the parent Condition diagnostic cutoff guide, the Medication FDA DailyMed & CMS NADAC wholesale price ledger, the Supplement elemental weight decoder, and our High-CPT-Volume Specialist Directory.
