THE LIMITATIONS OF REGULATORY TRIALS FOR CLINICAL DECISION-MAKING Because the design of these trials is based on a negotiation between regulators and industry, these trials often have substantial limitations for answering clinical questions in the real world and, hence, limited clinical credibility. Nonetheless, when they are the only randomised evidence available, they will often be used to answer clinical questions for which they were not designed. For example, evidence-based clinical...

Rate of overtriage and undertriage Overtriage rates were: (1) according to an ISS < 15 was 83.2%; (2) according to ACS-COT definition was 53.7% and (3) according to the discharge rate from the ED was 47.6%. Undertriage was 5.8% considering all patients transported to Papa Giovanni XXIII Hospital for the mechanism of trauma (median ISS 8, Interquartile Range, IR 4–9) and 1% considering patients with ISS > 15 (median ISS 17, IR 16–25). Characteristics of TTA prompted only b...

Vanilloid sensitivity is a functional signature of a subset of unmyelinated fibres innervating the urinary bladder. The role that these nerves have in the physiological control of storage and voiding is unclear. However, after the bladder has been disconnected by spinal injury from the pontine micturition centre, vanilloid-sensitive fibres assume a central role in the reflex emptying of the bladder that occurs at low volumes. Intravesical vanilloid (capsaicin or resiniferatoxin) administ...

Cash flow, which is the relevant financial variable, represents the actual flow of cash. Accounting income, on the other hand, reports accounting data as defined by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). b. Incremental cash flows are those cash flows that arise solely from the asset that is being evaluated. For example, assume an existing machine generates revenues of $1,000 per year and expenses of $600 per year. A machine being considered as a replacement would generate r...

2. Antiphospholipid antibodies and cerebral thrombosis 2.1. Lupus anticoagulant In neonates and children, LAC are sometimes found incidentally due to prolongation of activated partial thromboplastin time (20). As LAC can be transient and associated with infections and transplacental passage (21, 22), they are not usually associated with clinically relevant complications (23). Therefore, the differentiation between de novo and acquired LAC has important therapeutic implications and is c...

ase of interpretation, these measurements focus on quantity rather than functionality of clotting components and provide information on clot formation, but do not address clot stability and dissolution. Viscoelastic tests (VETs), such as rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM, Tem Innovations, Munich, Germany), thromboelastography (TEG System, Haemonetics) and Quantra (Quantra System, HemoSonics LLC, Charlottesville, VA), are global hemostasis assays able to assess coagulation functio...

LECTRONICALLY STORED EVIDENCE: ANSWERS TO SOME RECURRING QUESTIONS CONCERNING PRETRIAL DISCOVERY AND TRIAL USAGEt RICHARD ALLAN HORNING* The use of increasingly sophisticated and complex electronic data processing systems for business information storage and management is widespread. Computers, relying as they do on "invisible" electronic impulses contained in compact storage devices such as tape drives, disk drives, and "bubble memories," are rapidly overtaking filing cabinets as th...
