Improving sex and gender equity, rapid virus testing and saline injections for pain relief: February 2025 Primary Survey
Another packed issue of the journal this month, and a podcast to match. Starting off with the Editor's Choice paper, on the important topic of sex and gender disaggregation in emergency medicine trials. Sex and Gender Equity Reporting (SAGER) guidelines were introduced in 2016 but poor adherence is still found in current publications. Next is a paper with high seasonal relevance, addressing the sensitivity and specificity of multiplex lateral flow tests for Flu A, Flu B and COVID 19. There's also a randomised controlled trial on nebulised corticosteroids for asthma exacerbation, and to finish, a question few might think to ask - can intradermal injection of sterile water offer pain relief to renal colic patients?
Read the highlights: February 2025 Primary Survey
Sex and gender reporting in UK emergency medicine trials from 2010 to 2023: a systematic review
Sex and gender reporting in scientific papers now strongly recommended by the Emergency Medicine Journal
