The power of language: how to bridge the gap between healthcare research and patients: a scoping review
Conclusion: The use of inclusive, empathetic, and clear language can encourage patients to be involved in research and, once they are involved, make them feel like equal, empowered, and valued partners. Working toward developing processes and guidelines for the use of language that enables an equal partnership between researchers and patients is critical.PMID:38131338 | DOI:10.1080/03007995.2023.2295984 (Source: Current Medical Research and Opinion)

Analgesic onset and efficacy of a fast-acting formulation of acetaminophen in a postoperative dental impaction pain model
CONCLUSIONS: Both studies suggested FA-acetaminophen had faster onset of action compared to ES-acetaminophen and LG-Ibuprofen. In light of the difference in TCPR and TMPR results between Study 1 and 2, an additional study is needed to further investigate time to analgesic onset of FA-acetaminophen compared with ES-acetaminophen and LG-Ibuprofen.STUDY REGISTRY NUMBERS: Study 1: NCT02735122; Study 2: NCT03224403.PMID:38124555 | DOI:10.1080/03007995.2023.2294946 (Source: Current Medical Research and Opinion)

Associations of serum uric acid levels and anthropometric parameters with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in healthy individuals: innovative insights from a cross-sectional study
CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest a significant relationship between serum uric acid levels and NAFLD in healthy individuals. Elevated uric acid levels, in conjunction with other anthropometric parameters, may serve as potential predictive markers for NAFLD.PMID:38111962 | DOI:10.1080/03007995.2023.2296967 (Source: Current Medical Research and Opinion)
