Summary: In orthopaedic clinical research, choosing the appropriate study design based on the research question, data availability, and feasibility is crucial. The most common observational study designs in total joint arthroplasty research are cohort and cross-sectional studies. This article provides methodological considerations for different study designs and highlights the advantages and feasibility of experimental and observational designs using real-world examples. It also guides investigators on how to avoid common mistakes and provides a step-by-step design for a case-control study. The article concludes with considerations for choosing alternative study designs.

Summary: There are currently no national guidelines regarding bladder cancer treatment and clinical care pathways in Nigeria. This scoping review aimed to identify gaps in knowledge on bladder cancer epidemiology, clinical care, and translational research to inform the development of guidelines and future research. The review included 19 studies and highlighted the high prevalence of schistosomiasis in bladder cancer patients and identified potential biomarkers for further research. Consultation with clinicians and bladder cancer survivors also raised awareness of sociocultural and infrastructural issues affecting diagnosis and treatment.

Summary: Sponsored by the Australian Council on Healthcare Standards, a consensus-driven process using a modified Delphi methodology was conducted to determine a set of clinical indicators for cancer service provision in Australia. After a series of meetings and deliberations, a final set of 16 indicators was established by a multidisciplinary steering group and stakeholder group. This inaugural cancer clinical indicator set aims to drive continual improvement in cancer care provision across Australia and internationally.

Summary: This study found potential hazardous prescribing and inadequate medication monitoring in patients with mental illness in primary care. Significant variation between practices was also identified. Patients aged 35-44, females, and those receiving more than 10 repeat prescriptions were at greater risk of triggering a prescribing indicator.

Summary: Global estimates for incident and prevalent cases of type 1 diabetes in 2017 were found to be 234,710 and 9,004,610 respectively, with high-income countries accounting for a significant portion. Asia had the largest number of cases, reflecting its population size. Sensitivity analyses showed estimates could deviate by up to 15%.
