Abstract Objective We report the first randomised controlled trial (RCT) using a combination of St. John's wort (SJW) and Kava for treatment major depressive disorder (MDD) with comorbid anxiety. Methods Twenty‐eight adults MDD co‐occurring anxiety were recruited double‐blind RCT. After placebo run‐in 2 weeks, had crossover design testing SJW against over two phases, each 4 weeks. The primary analyses used intention‐to‐treat completer analyses. Results On both ( p = 0.047) 0.003), gave...
One third of Australian children diagnosed with type 1 diabetes present life-threatening diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) at diagnosis. Screening for early-stage, presymptomatic diabetes, ongoing follow-up, can substantially reduce this risk (<5% risk). Several screening models are being trialled internationally, without consensus on the optimal approach. This pilot study aims to assess three a routine, population-wide programme in Australia.
To explore reasons behind treatment inertia in current approaches to early cardiorenal risk management type 2 diabetes (T2D).A global, web-based, quantitative panel survey of primary care physicians (PCPs) and specialists treating people living with T2D. The questions covered T2D, particularly the use sodium-glucose co-transporter inhibitors, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors as second-/third-line therapies.Of 1677 respondents from 18 countries who...
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality, contributing to approximately 20 000 deaths in 2021 Australia. Importantly, progression CKD can be substantially reduced if it detected treated early.
