Based on these results, clinically meaningful changes were defined as a reduction of 4 points for NRS-DYS and 2 points for NRS-NMPP. This study demonstrated the utility and responsiveness of separate numerical rating scales to assess worst pain for dysmenorrhea and NMPP in women with moderate to severe endometriosis-associated pain and identified initial thresholds for clinically meaningful change.

Iron deficiency is the leading cause of perioperative anaemia. Intravenous (i.v.) iron is considered to be an effective and safe treatment for iron deficiency anaemia and is recommended by expert opinion for treatment of preoperative anaemia, although evidence from clinical trials is lacking. The PREVENTT trial was a large multicentre trial investigating the effects of i.v. iron on red cell transfusion, death, complications and quality of life in 487 patients undergoing major abdominal surgery. The principal finding of this multicentre randomised placebo controlled trial was that there was no difference in the co-primary outcomes of blood transfusion or death, or the number of transfusion episodes, within 30 days after surgery, in patients that received preoperative i.v. iron therapy compared to placebo. The major inferential differences in this independent discussion relate to the limitations of the PREVENTT trial and its implications for future practice. Although
