The comparing options for management: patient-centered results for uterine fibroids (COMPARE-UF) registry: Rationale and design.
The purpose of the study was to design and establish a uterine fibroid (UF) registry based in the United States to provide comparative effectiveness data regarding UF treatment. This registry, called Comparing Options for Management: Patient-centered Results for Uterine Fibroids (COMPARE-UF), will generate evidence on the comparative effectiveness of different procedural options for UF, in order to help patients and their caregivers make informed decisions that best meet an individual patient's short- and long-term preferences.

Rationale and design of the Clinic and Community Approaches to Healthy Weight Randomized Trial.
Recent studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of family-centered, pediatric weight management programs in reducing childhood obesity. Yet, programs to optimize the care of low-income children with obesity are needed. The investigators sought to examine the comparative effectiveness of two, potentially scalable pediatric weight management programs delivered to low-income children in a clinical or community setting.
