Evaluation of the Comparative Efficacy of an Ayurvedic Formulation (Nimba-Amalakyadi Powder) vs Metformin in the Management of Type 2 #Diabetes Mellitus: #Protocol for a Pilot #Study Background: In Ayurveda, (#Diabetes mellitus) is considered (one among eight diseases difficult to treat and cure). (three bio-humor in Ayurveda) with certain metabolic factors are involved in its pathogenesis. Frequent urination is a common symptom of this disease. #Diabetes mellitus can be confused with type 2 #Diabetes mellitus in conventional science due to the resemblance in cardinal features. Objective: The primary objectives of this pilot #Study are to assess feasibility through recruitment, retention, adherence, data completeness, and participant acceptability. It also aims to estimate variability in outcome measures like fasting blood sugar and glycated hemoglobin (HbA). The secondary, exploratory objective is to observe trends in these clinical indicators to inform effect size assumptions for future trials. Methods: In this pilot #Study 36 individuals with type 2 #Diabetes mellitus will be recruited and split into two equal groups at random. In Group A (Control), metformin tablets (500 mg) will be prescribed daily once before lunch with plain water for 45 consecutive days. In Group B (Interventional group), the formulation will be prescribed 5 grams twice daily with an empty stomach (ie, 7 AM-5 PM) with lukewarm water for 45 consecutive days. Follow-up will be taken on days 45 and 90 to #Study the sustained effect of the drug. Results: The preliminary analysis of participant responses began in January 2025. Final results from this phase are expected to be available by June 2025. Recruitment rate (number recruited/month), eligibility rate (number eligible/number screened), retention rate at 45 days, compliance with intervention (percentage of prescribed doses taken), adherence to follow-up investigations, acceptability of intervention (based on participant-reported feedback), and data completeness rates are variables. Moreover, changes in the objective parameters, ie, reductions in blood sugar level (fasting and postprandial) and HbA values of patients will be also observed and recorded. Conclusions: A conclusion will be drawn according to the clinical findings obtained at baseline and follow-up visits with biochemical reports of the patients. The trial will prove the feasibility and comparative efficacy of formulation versus metformin tablets for the management of type 2 #Diabetes mellitus Trial Registration: The Clinical Trials Registry- India (CTRI) CTRI 2021/08/036034; https://tinyurl.com/2xwc84p2 International Registered Report Identifier (IRRID): PRR1-10.2196/63574

Methods of Analysis in Randomized Noninferiority Trials: Methodological Survey Review #Protocol Background: Noninferiority (NI) trial designs that investigate whether an experimental intervention is no worse than the standard of care have been used increasingly in recent years. The robustness of the conclusions depends in part on the analysis population set used. In NI settings, the intention-to-treat (ITT) and per-#Protocol (PP) analysis sets are most common. The ITT analysis has been considered anticonservative compared with the PP analysis. Objective: This #Study aimed to conduct a methodological review assessing the analysis population sets used in contemporary NI trials. Methods: A comprehensive electronic search strategy will be conducted to identify studies indexed in MEDLINE, Embase, Emcare, and Cochrane CENTRAL. Studies will be included if they are NI trials published in 2024. The primary outcome is the analysis population used for the primary analysis of the trial (ITT, PP, or as-treated). Secondary outcomes include the NI margin, effect estimates, point estimates, and corresponding CIs. Analyses will be performed using descriptive statistics. Results: The comprehensive search initially identified 1209 studies, of which 403 trials were eligible for data extraction. Data extraction began in January 2025 and is expected to be completed in January 2026. Conclusions: This methodological survey of NI trials will describe the analysis population used in the primary analysis and assess factors that may be associated with each analysis method.

Cardiovascular Health and Financial Hardship: #Protocol for a Qualitative Citizen Science #Study Background: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death worldwide. Individuals with lower income or experiencing financial hardship face a significantly higher risk of developing CVD. However, there is a lack of in-depth insight into their experiences with CVD, and specific attention to women is essential. Objective: The In a Heartbeat #Study aims to understand the relationship between CVD and financial hardship and enable earlier recognition and prevention of CVD among both women and men. In this #Study #Protocol, we describe our citizen science #Study, in which we unravel the mechanisms and contexts through which financial problems lead to the development and late recognition of CVD. Methods: The main data for this #Study are collected by citizen scientists through qualitative lifeline interviews. All citizen scientists have experience with financial hardship, and some also have experience with CVD. We hold weekly project team meetings with citizen scientists and professional scientists in which we use methods such as photo elicitation, critical-creative hermeneutic analysis, design thinking, a dynamic learning agenda, and regular individual and group evaluations of the citizen science process. Results: The #Study was funded in October 2024 and started in January 2025. Data collection started in November 2025 and is expected to end halfway through 2026. Four qualitative lifeline interviews had been conducted as of December 6, 2025. Data analyses are planned for 2026. Manuscripts reporting findings on the central #Research question and the process evaluations will be submitted for publication in 2027. Conclusions: Toward the end of the #Study in 2027, we will develop and disseminate concrete recommendations for various stakeholders to prevent CVD and recognize CVD earlier among people with financial hardship. In all our analyses and recommendations, we will consider sex and gender differences. Our #Study could contribute to a reduction in health inequalities.

Evaluation Models for Undergraduate Nursing Clinical Skills: A Scoping Review #Protocol Background: Undergraduate nursing students are expected to perform a high-stakes clinical skills test, which ultimately determines their ability to engage in clinical practice. With intake number of students growing nationally, clinical instructors are modifying these skills tests to be shorter in duration as an attempt to meet scheduled class times, severely decreasing the assessments’ accuracy and increasing student stress. Objective: The objectives of this review are to examine best practices of evaluation structures or models for undergraduate nursing students participating in clinical skills-based assessments as part of their program curriculum to explore alternative, best-practice methods for evaluating key clinical skills. The goal is to use what is known in the literature to help inform the development of a new evidence-based clinical skills evaluation model that is adaptive to student population growth, enhances student learning and faculty teaching experiences, and ensures safe patient care. Methods: This scoping review will consider studies involving nursing students enrolled in an undergraduate nursing degree program who undergo clinical skills testing as part of their degree fulfillment. Original articles published in English from January 1, 2015, to present day will be included. This review will follow the Joanna Briggs Institute methodology for scoping reviews, as well as the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) guidelines. The literature search will use the following databases: SCOPUS, CINAHL, Medline, PsycInfo, ProQuest Central, and ProQuest Dissertations and Theses to identify relevant sources. Moreover, nonempirical #Research, such as editorials, opinion papers, gray literature, and reviews, will be included. Data from professional nursing organizations, including the College of Nurses of Ontario (CNO), the Registered Nurses’ Association of Ontario (RNAO), and the Canadian Association of Schools of Nursing (CASN), will be considered. Two independent reviewers will conduct a screening of article titles and abstracts, followed by full-text reviews. Together, they will determine which articles will proceed to the data extraction stage. If discrepancies arise, a consensus discussion will take place between the two reviewers with assistance from a third reviewer. Results: The project was funded in June 2025 (Figure 1). The scoping review is scheduled to begin in July 2025, with the literature search and #Study selection processes planned through Fall 2025. Results are expected to be submitted for publication in Winter 2026. Conclusions: The results of this review will summarize the current breadth of knowledge on clinical skills testing and best-practice methods used for clinical skill evaluation among undergraduate nursing students. Any gaps in the literature will be identified as these can be used to guide future #Research within this area of nursing education.

Developing and Validating Measures of Structural Ableism to Improve Health Outcomes for the Disability Community: #Protocol for a Mixed Methods #Study Background: Structural ableism, defined as the processes, policies, and institutions that privilege able-bodied people over disabled people, is a root cause of health inequalities faced by the disability community. Unlike other forms of structural oppression, there are currently no adequate measurements for structural ableism and its impacts. Therefore, a necessary first step to addressing health inequities that impact the disability community is to create validated measures of structural ableism. Objective: This paper outlines the methods of an ongoing project that aims to develop and validate measures of structural ableism. The resulting measures will facilitate the identification of relationships between structural ableism and health outcomes at both an individual and community level. Methods: This project will take place across 3 phases. In Phase I, we will characterize the multiple factors that comprise the construct of structural ableism. We will begin by analyzing texts that discuss historical events, ideologies, and the lived experiences of disabled people to inform our understanding of contemporary dimensions of structural ableism. Simultaneously, key informant interviews with advocates and activists from the disability rights and disability justice movements will be conducted to further characterize the dimensions of structural ableism. In Phase II, the findings of Phase I will be used to inform the creation of an individual-level measure of structural ableism. Phase III will result in community-level measures of structural ableism, which will be developed using community-engagement studios with members of the disability community and publicly available datasets. This phase will build on the findings of the first 2 phases. Our methods purposefully include disabled people across all phases of this work, with a focus on maximizing the diversity of disability perspectives by including people across disability types and intersecting identities (eg, race and ethnicity, gender identity, geographic location, and other identities and demographics). Most importantly, our approach is deeply community-informed, drawing on multiple community partnerships from local and national organizations, a diverse advisory committee of disabled activists, advocates, and scholars, as well as #Researchers with expertise in developing measures of structural oppression, such as structural racism. Results: This project was funded in August of 2024. As of October 2025, our team has read more than 50 texts as part of our historical and policy analysis of the factors that characterize structural ableism. We plan to complete our characterization of structural ableism in the spring of 2026, with individual-level measures of structural ableism being developed by the Winter of 2028 and community-level measures created by the Winter of 2029. Conclusions: The measures developed by this work will lay the foundation for identifying and evaluating novel interventions aimed at dismantling structural ableism, which should be cocreated with the disability community.
