Find out which HRQL factors to focus on if you are conducting research on/with patients with oesophageal cancer -> read our review

Excellent review - most studies focus on surgery & chemoradiotherapy 💉💊, but key areas like social life 👫, mental health 🙆, and existential well-being 🏋️ remain under-researched. ow.ly/T3t450XIEMw #EsophagealCancer #QualityOfLife #PatientReportedOutcomes @isde_net

🧪 Can we trust the RCTs included in systematic reviews? In our new study, 1 in 3 RCTs raised red flags for authenticity when assessed using trustworthiness checks. Time to rethink assumptions. 📄 doi.org/10.1016/j.jcli… #researchintegrity #RCT #systematicreview

Call to action: Develop a new, robust, and evidence-based pain assessment scale for newborns—an essential step toward improving neonatal care on a global scale. news.ki.se/swedish-led-in… @KFarnqvist @empersad @cochranecollab @karolinskainst

Neonatal pain assessment and management presents a challenge for clinical staff worldwide. Over 40 rating scales have been developed and adapted worldwide assessing different parameters and various types of pain. cochrane.org/news/weak-evid…

We analyzed 79 studies (7197 infants, 326 nurses, 12 physicians) across 26 countries using 27 clinical rating scales. Neonatal pain scales showed very low-certainty evidence, raising serious concerns about their validity and reliability in neonatal care. cochranelibrary.com/cdsr/doi/10.10…

Our recent Cochrane review reveals that current clinical tools for assessing pain in newborns lack robust evidence, raising concerns about their reliability and validity. cochrane.org/news/weak-evid…

🚀 Just published our latest study on the impact of physical exercise on health-related quality of life after esophageal or gastric cancer surgery. Results show no significant improvement, highlighting the need for more research. Link to paper …sportsscimedrehabil.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11… 📚

@Physio_Pat 🎩🙌

I'm very happy to share I have passed my PhD, which explored neural deficits relevant to pain symptoms and functional impairments in individuals with Achilles or patellar tendinopathy. If you are interested, you can access it here: bridges.monash.edu/articles/thesi…

Of the systematic reviews in Swedish doctoral theses, 90% are rated as low to very low quality. Let's support PhD students with better training & tools to improve research quality! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ce… @martinringsten @KFarnqvist @MBruschettini @minnajohansson1 #PhD

I am a co-author of this interesting paper. Our assessment of 2021 theses found that only 5.4% included a Systematic review (in a Swedish setting). Better SR training could reduce redundant research & improve research skills. #SystematicReview

Fler kommentarer har publicerats: hittills är alla överens om behovet av full acceptans (=100%) av systematiska översikter vid alla svenska universitet, d.v.s. inklusive Lunds och Linköpings universitet. @IngemarPetersso @StefanAcosta4 @medfak_LU @KarinJirstrom @ekvall_eva

Swedish universities have made strides in recognizing systematic reviews over the last 5 years. 👏 Karolinska, Gothenburg & Uppsala lead the way—but others lag behind. Let's push for equity in academia! 🧑‍🔬📝 Read more: lakartidningen.se/opinion/debatt… #ResearchEquality @cochranecollab
