Filter by:1. The primary objective is to compare rates of persistence (continuation) of any endocrine therapy (ET) between patients assigned to standard of care follow-up (control arm) versus standard of care plus a bi-directional text messaging intervention (intervention arm) 2. The secondary objectives are: (i) To assess time to permanent discontinuation of ET (switching from an aromatase inhibitor to another ET is permitted). The investigators will also account for treatment breaks. (ii) To assess QOL at baseline, and at 6 and 12 months after initiation of ET (FACT-ES1, Brief Pain Inventory2, Overall Treatment Burden3,4, individual symptom LASA scales4) and compare between arms (iii) To assess adherence self-efficacy (SEAMS5 tool, Voils Extent of Non-Adherence Scale6), financial burden (COST tool7,8), beliefs about medications (modified BMQ tool9,10), and perceived ability to communicate with one's physician (PEPPI11 tool) and compare between arms (iv) To compare the time to endocrine therapy discontinuation in both the intervention and control arms (v) To characterize factors (including clinicopathologic features, socioeconomic status, and comorbidities) associated with non-adherence in both the intervention arm and the control arm, which may enable us to identify women who are at particularly high risk of non-adherence. (vi) To assess adherence to medication as reported through the BETA-Text intervention (vii) To collect the time to onset and trend of severity of side effects in women assigned to the text messaging intervention.
This trial is to test the caries prevention effect of Arabic gum and Licorice root extracts compared to Chlorhexidine in high caries risk patients. The antimicrobial efficacy and oral side effects from using these mouthwashes will also be tested.
Cosmeceuticals are an emerging market within dermatology and the growth of natural products and derivatives of natural products has accelerated in use within the field. Here the investigators aimed to study the microbial and cosmetic effects of Synoxyl AZ, the trade name for topical acetyl zingerone (AZ), a novel compound designed based on Zingerone and curcumin.
This study is asking patients who are undergoing radiation therapy with or without chemotherapy on how well they evaluate their side effects on the last day of treatment. This study is not to change health outcomes of the patients in this study. Asking patients to rank side effects in order of which ones bother them the most may help researchers identify the most troubling side effects of cancer treatment.
Oral iron supplementation is often associated with rapid onset of gastrointestinal side-effects. The aim of this study was to develop and trial a short, simple questionnaire to capture these early side-effects and to determine which symptoms are more discriminating. The study was a double-blind placebo-controlled randomized parallel trial with one week treatment followed by one week wash-out. Subjects were randomized into two treatment groups (n=10/group) to receive either ferrous sulphate (200 mg capsules containing 65 mg of iron) or placebo, both to be taken at mealtimes twice daily during the treatment period. Subjects completed the questionnaires daily for 14 days. The questionnaire included gastrointestinal symptoms commonly reported to be associated with the oral intake of ferrous iron salts (i.e. nausea, vomiting, heartburn, abdominal pain, diarrhoea, and constipation).
