The Benefits and Risks of Receiving Investigational Solid Tumor Drugs in Randomized Trials : A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
CONCLUSION: Assignment to experimental groups produces statistically significant survival gains. However, the absolute survival gain is small, and toxicity is statistically significantly greater. The findings of this review provide reassuring evidence that patients are not meaningfully disadvantaged by assignment to comparator groups.PRIMARY FUNDING SOURCE: Canadian Institutes of Health Research.PMID:38684102 | DOI:10.7326/M23-2515 (Source: Annals of Internal Medicine)

Comparison of Hospital Mortality and Readmission Rates by Physician and Patient Sex
CONCLUSION: The findings indicate that patients have lower mortality and readmission rates when treated by female physicians, and the benefit of receiving treatments from female physicians is larger for female patients than for male patients.PRIMARY FUNDING SOURCE: Gregory Annenberg Weingarten, GRoW @ Annenberg.PMID:38648639 | DOI:10.7326/M23-3163 (Source: Annals of Internal Medicine)

Effect of Health Service Area on Primary Care Physician Provision of Low-Value Cancer Screening
CONCLUSION: Physicians relocating to service areas with lower rates of LVC provided less LVC than physicians who stayed in areas with higher rates of LVC. Systemic structures may contribute to LVC. Understanding which factors are contributing may present opportunities for policy and interventions to broadly improve care.PRIMARY FUNDING SOURCE: National Cancer Institute of the National Institutes of Health.PMID:38648640 | DOI:10.7326/M23-1456 (Source: Annals of Internal Medicine)
