Randomized trials stopped early for benefit: a systematic review

TL;DR: RCTs stopped early for benefit are becoming more common, often fail to adequately report relevant information about the decision to stop early, and show implausibly large treatment effects, particularly when the number of events is small, which suggests clinicians should view the results of such trials with skepticism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Telecare for Patients With Type 1 Diabetes and Inadequate Glycemic Control: A randomized controlled trial and meta-analysis

TL;DR: Telecare is associated with small effects on glycemic control in patients with type 1 diabetes on intensive insulin therapy but with inadequate gly glucose control.
Journal ArticleDOI

Procedures that assess inconsistency in meta-analyses can assess the likelihood of response bias in multiwave surveys

TL;DR: Researchers can use procedures that assess inconsistency in meta-analysis to evaluate the validity of a multiwave survey with a less than optimal response rate to suggest that the underlying responses did not differ across waves and thus strengthened the inference that response bias was not affecting the interpretation of the survey.
Journal Article

Can contraindications compromise evidence-based, patient-centered clinical practice?

TL;DR: The frequency with which the label "contraindication" dominated participants' treatment decisions despite patient preferences and weak evidence of harm was determined.
