چکیده

The need for improved access to clinical trial data is widely recognized to ensure complete information is in the public domain, to honor the commitment of research subjects, and to empower and engage analytic talent across the worldwide biomedical community. Open access to patient-level data from clinical trials enables data transparency, fosters data sharing, and catalyzes research innovation. As noted by Ross andKrumholzm ‘‘A wall surrounds much. clinical research data, sequestering knowledge, impeding the free flow of information, and obscuring a clear view of the totality of evidence relevant to many research questions and clinical decisions.’’ Mello et al stress the benefits of data transparency, which range from improving reporting accuracy to improving patient safety, as well as speeding innovation. Long-term benefits of data sharing include improvements in future clinical trial design, generation of new research hypotheses and research grant applications, and identification of targets for future drug development. Indeed, the National Institute on Drug Abuse Treatment Clinical Trials Network Data Share Project recently documented 13 published examples of secondary use of public data sets fromNational Institute onDrugAbuse–sponsored clinical trials, illustrating the potential to promote additional research and new insights from completed studies. Immune Tolerance Network (ITN) TrialShare, a novel portal for viewing and analyzing complete data sets from ITN trials, demonstrates this commitment through open access and userfriendly analytic tools. ITN TrialShare integrates data display from laboratory outputs, biomarker outcomes, and clinical and demographic attributes across a wide range of immunologic diseases and interventions, including the recent Learning Early About Peanut Allergy (LEAP) and LEAP-ON studies.

Efficacy of Low-Level Laser Versus Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation for Treatment of Myofascial Pain Syndrome: A Clinical Trial

Background and Aim: Myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) is the most common cause of facial muscle pain. This study sought to assess the efficacy of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) and low-level laser (LLL) for treatment of MPS in comparison with a sham laser control group. Materials and Methods: In this randomized controlled clinical trial, 55 MPS patients between 18-60 years old ...

Behind closed doors: the data monitoring board in randomized clinical trials.

Many randomized clinical trials include a data and safety monitoring board (DSMB) that is responsible for reviewing accruing data, monitoring performance of the trial, assuring safety of the participants in the trial, and assessing the efficacy of treatment. The DSMB often makes recommendations about continuation of the trial or alteration of the protocol. Although such boards are very influent...

Different Types of Door-Opening Motions as Contributing Factors to Containment Failures in Hospital Isolation Rooms

Hospital isolation rooms are vital for the containment (when under negative pressure) of patients with, or the protection (when under positive pressure) of patients, from airborne infectious agents. Such facilities were essential for the management of highly contagious patients during the 2003 severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) outbreaks and the more recent 2009 A/H1N1 influenza pandemic....

Improving robot manipulation with data-driven object-centric models of everyday forces

Robots currently lack common sense about the forces involved in everyday manipulation tasks. In this paper, we present data-driven methods to inform robots about the forces that they are likely to encounter when performing specific tasks. In the context of door opening, we demonstrate that data-driven models can be used to haptically recognize specific doors, haptically recognize classes of doo...
