The document discusses the requirements for obtaining informed consent from patients participating in clinical drug trials versus physical intervention trials. It finds that while the standards for drug trials outlined in ICH GCP are well established, requirements for physical therapy trials are less clear. Through a literature review, it identifies guidelines from the World Confederation for Physical Therapy and the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy in the UK. Many elements of informed consent are comparable between drug and physical therapy trials, including defining consent, why it is needed, who obtains it, and special populations. However, fewer topics are required for discussion in physical therapy consent compared to drug trials based on ICH GCP.
evidence based medical practice
The document provides an overview of evidence-based medicine (EBM) and outlines the steps of the EBM process. It then walks through applying these steps to formulate a clinical question about treating otitis media in children under 2 with amoxicillin versus no medication. Relevant research studies are identified and evaluated for validity and applicability. The evidence suggests antibiotics provide only minimal benefits for most cases, so treatment may not be necessary in many instances.
Presentation
This document discusses a research project analyzing electronic medical record (EMR) data from Vanderbilt University Medical Center to infer collaborations between trauma care providers. The goals are to determine if the correct care teams are in place to treat patients, how care provider networks may change over time, and what EMR utilization data can reveal about these networks. The methodology involves creating a matrix from the EMR data to show relationships between users and patients, and software is used to manipulate and visualize this data to analyze the composition and strength of collaborative relationships between care providers.
Diagnosis and primary care
1. Novice medical practitioners tend to use a "shotgun" approach to testing without a clear target in mind, while experts usually have a specific target and tailor their testing strategy accordingly.
2. Developing diagnostic virtuosity requires strong clinical reasoning abilities, medical knowledge, pattern recognition skills, and the ability to effectively integrate various information sources.
3. Effective communication and collaboration with patients and other medical professionals is also important for making accurate diagnoses and treatment decisions.
Successful Pediatric Studies: Key Study Design and Site Selection Considerations
The industry recognizes the importance of ensuring the safety and well‐being of children involved in research studies. Medical and regulatory bodies have worked to provide a framework to support appropriately designed studies through regulations and guidance documents in this vulnerable population. However, it is crucial to understand the nuances associated with pediatric trials, for the site, patient and family, in order to manage them to successful completion.
During the 2012 ACRP Annual Meeting, Dr. Charlene Sanders and Angi Robinson from Premier Research reviewed topics including the evaluation of study design considerations such as duration of treatment, required assessments, use of placebo, and inclusion of specific age groups; selection of appropriate sites for pediatric trials and the unique needs of these sites; identification of pediatric recruitment/retention hurdles and site specific strategies to overcome these as well as a reflection on ethical concerns related to pediatric research.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.Recently uploaded (20)
