Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative StudyComparison of rocuronium priming vs. standard rapid sequence intubation technique in emergency department patients requiring intubation.
In our study, we aimed to compare the effect of standard rapid sequence intubation protocol and the application of rocuronium priming technique on the procedure time and hemodynamic profile. ⋯ NCT05343702.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative StudyA novel comparison of erector spinae plane block and paravertebral block in laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Erector spinae plane block is an updated method than paravertebral block, possessing a lower risk of complications. This study aimed to compare erector spinae plane and paravertebral blocks to safely reach the most efficacious analgesia procedure in laparoscopic cholecystectomy cases. ⋯ Sonography-guided-paravertebral block provides sufficient postoperative analgesia in laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery. Erector spinae plane seems to attenuate total tramadol consumption.

Meta AnalysisNatural supplementation to effectively treat cancer-induced fatigue: evidence of a meta-analysis on the use of guaraná.
Cancer-related fatigue is a pervasive symptom, affecting up to 90% of cancer patients throughout their illness, and can persist well after treatment has ended. Despite its prevalence, no definitive evidence-based treatment exists, leading to an abundance of proposed alternatives, including natural supplements. To further explore the potential effects of guaraná on cancer-related fatigue, a systematic review with meta-analysis was conducted and registered on the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (CRD42023484144). ⋯ This meta-analysis provides support for the use of guaraná in the treatment of cancer-related fatigue. However, further investigation through larger prospective randomized controlled trials is necessary to validate these findings.

Randomized Controlled TrialEffectiveness of mobilization with movement in patients operated for distal radius fracture: a single-blinded, randomized controlled study.
BACKGROUND: There are limited data on the use of Mulligan's mobilization with movement technique in patients who underwent surgery for distal radius fracture. AIMS: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of adding Mulligan's mobilization with movement to the conventional exercise program for those who underwent open reduction and volar plate application due to distal radius fracture. ⋯ XThe mobilization with movement had no additive effect on parameters other than hand grip strength and pronation.

Randomized Controlled TrialDid diet compliance and remission reduce oxidative stress in celiac patients?
We aimed to examine the effect of remission status on thiol-disulfide homeostasis in celiac patients and thus to indirectly determine the effect of oxidative stress and inflammation caused by non-compliance with the diet. ⋯ Not being in remission in celiac disease leads to increased oxidative stress, and thiol-disulfide homeostasis is an indirect indicator of this. Additionally, providing remission in celiac patients reduces oxidative stress.
