To what degree could clinical trials in evidence based medicine reflect reality in the treatment of candidemia?

IntroductionEvidenced based medicine (EBM) is necessary to standardize or treatment for infection since EBM is established based on the results of clinical trials. Entry criteria for clinical trials are very strict, and many patients have difficulties in being enrolled in any clinical trials regarding candidemia. It is questionable if the results of clinical trials reflect the real world of general medicine in this case.Patients and methodsFor the purpose of examining how many patients could join any randomized clinical trials for the treatment of candidemia, we reviewed all the candidemia patients in our institute during 2014–2018. The patients were divided into two groups: patients who were eligible for clinical trials (participation possible group), and those who were not (participation impossible group). Exclusion criteria for clinical trials were set based on previous clinical trials.ResultsA total of 70 patients was enrolled in this study. The median age was 73 years (range 36–93 years). Of these, 41 patients (59%) were male. As for site of infections, catheter related blood stream infection was most frequently seen in 37 (53%). Seventeen patients (24%) were classified as participation possible group and 53 patients (76%) were participation impossible group. Comparing the two groups, participation possible group patients have much better performance status, have less comorbidities and have longer overall survival times than participation impossible group patients.ConclusionOnly 24% of candidemia patients were eligible for the clinical trials. Thus, we can see that clinical trials might not correctly reflect the real world among candidemia patients.

The ONE‐MIND Study: Rationale and protocol for assessing the effects of ONlinE MINDfulness‐based cancer recovery for the prevention of fatigue and other common side effects during chemotherapy

Cancer patients often experience poor quality of life (QoL) during chemotherapy (CT) treatments due to side effects including fatigue, insomnia, pain and nausea/vomiting. Mindfulness‐based cancer recovery (MBCR) is an evidence‐based intervention for treating such symptoms, but has not been investigated as an adjunctive treatment during CT. This study aims to determine the efficacy of an online group MBCR programme delivered during CT in 12 real‐time interactive weekly sessions for managing fatigue (primary outcome). Secondary outcomes include sleep disturbance, pain, nausea/vomiting, mood, stress and QoL. Exploratory outcomes include cognitive function, white blood cell counts and return to work. The study is a two‐armed randomised controlled waitlist trial with 2:1 allocation to treatment (online group MBCR during CT) or control (waitlist usual care; online MBCR following CT completion) with a target sample size of N = 178. Participants are breast or colorectal cancer patients undergoing common CT regimens in Calgary, Canada. Online assessments using validated self‐reported instruments will take place at baseline, post‐MBCR, post‐CT and 12 months’ post‐baseline. If online MBCR delivered during CT significantly reduces fatigue in cancer patients’ post‐CT and also impacts secondary symptoms, this would provide evidence for including mindfulness training as an adjunctive symptom management therapy during CT.     

Mailed fecal immunochemical test outreach for colorectal cancer screening: Summary of a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention–sponsored Summit

Uptake of colorectal cancer screening remains suboptimal. Mailed fecal immunochemical testing (FIT) offers promise for increasing screening rates, but optimal strategies for implementation have not been well synthesized. In June 2019, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention convened a meeting of subject matter experts and stakeholders to answer key questions regarding mailed FIT implementation in the United States. Points of agreement included: 1) primers, such as texts, telephone calls, and printed mailings before mailed FIT, appear to contribute to effectiveness; 2) invitation letters should be brief and easy to read, and the signatory should be tailored based on setting; 3) instructions for FIT completion should be simple and address challenges that may lead to failed laboratory processing, such as notation of collection date; 4) reminders delivered to initial noncompleters should be used to increase the FIT return rate; 5) data infrastructure should identify eligible patients and track each step in the outreach process, from primer delivery through abnormal FIT follow-up; 6) protocols and procedures such as navigation should be in place to promote colonoscopy after abnormal FIT; 7) a high-quality, 1-sample FIT should be used; 8) sustainability requires a program champion and organizational support for the work, including sufficient funding and external policies (such as quality reporting requirements) to drive commitment to program investment; and 9) the cost effectiveness of mailed FIT has been established. Participants concluded that mailed FIT is an effective and efficient strategy with great potential for increasing colorectal cancer screening in diverse health care settings if more widely implemented.     

翻转课堂联合CBL教学在中医辨证见习中的应用

目的探讨翻转课堂联合CBL教学法应用于中医学辨证见习教学中的效果。方法将60名学生随机分为两组,每组30名,学生均来自于中南大学湘雅医学院临床医学专业2016级五年制本科。翻转课堂联合CBL教学法被应用于试验组,传统教学模式被应用于对照组,教学效果评价采用理论知识考核与学生满意度调查的双向评价模式。结果试验组的见习内容知识考核卷面成绩和满意度调查得分均高于对照组,差异均有统计学意义(P <0.05)。结论在中医学辨证见习课中,翻转课堂联合CBL教学法的教学效果优于传统教学模式。
