ficant results could lead to inappropriate recommendations that increase healthcare costs and treatment toxicity. Methods: CER studies from 2022 issues of Annals of Surgery, Journal of the American Medical Association, Journal of Clinical Oncology, Journal of Surgical Research, and Journal of the American College of Surgeons were systematically reviewed by two different investigators. The primary outcome of interest was whether authors specified what they considered to be a clinically significant difference in the Methods. Results: Of 307 reviewed studies, 162 were clinical trials and 145 were observational studies. Authors specified what they considered to be a clinically significant difference in 26 studies (8.5%). Clinical significance was defined using clinically validated standards in 25 studies and subjectively in 1 study. Seven studies (2.3%) recommended a change in clinical decision-making, all with primary outcomes achieving statistical significance. Five (71.4%) of these stud

@NiuSanford @madhuri1608k This point was the motivation for a study we just did. FDA-approval is contingent on “positive” trials that are statistics-based. Set targets. But who decides clinical significance thresholds? There’s none. I’m not saying ppl game this system, but I am. https://t.co/JLBIDe532X

Mashup Score: 8Short-term Outcomes of Robotic Versus Open... : Annals of Surgery - 9 month(s) ago
g the two has been limited.and has prompted further investigation. The aim of this study was to compare both approaches while including the learning curve phase for RPD. Methods: A 1:1 propensity score-matched (PSM) analysis of a prospective database of RPD with OPD (2017-2022) at a high-volume center was performed. Main outcomes were overall- and pancreas specific complications. Results: Of 375 patients who underwent PD (OPD n=276, RPD n=99), 180 were included in PSM analysis (90 per group). RPD was associated with less blood loss (500 (300-800) vs. 750 (400-1000)ml; P=0.006) and less total complications (50% vs. 19%; P<0.001). Operative time was longer (453 (408-529) vs. 306 (247-362)min; P<0.001); in patients with ductal adenocarcinoma, fewer lymph nodes were harvested (24 (18-27) vs. 33 (27-39); P<0.001) with RPD versus OPD. There were no significant differences for major complications (38 vs. 47%; P=0.291), reoperation rate (14% vs. 10%; P=0.495), postoperative pancreatic fistula
