A scoping review of randomized trials assessing the impact of n-of-1 trials on clinical outcomes

The single patient nof trial can be used to resolve therapeutic uncertainty for the individual patient Treatment alternatives are systematically tested against each other generating patientspecific data used to inform an individualized treatment plan We hypothesize that clinical decisions informed by nof trials improve patient

Masticatory dysfunction in patients with diabetic neuropathy

Chewing well is essential for successful diet therapy and control of blood glucose level in patients with diabetes In addition longterm hyperglycemia is a risk factor for microvascular complications which are the main cause of morbidity and mortality in these patients Hence it is plausible that masticatory disorder may be relevant to diabetic micro...
