  • 2019 the MRINZ Is New Zealand’S Leading Independent Medical Research Institute and Is a Charitable Trust
    2019 The MRINZ is New Zealand’s leading independent medical research institute and is a charitable trust. Our medical scientists are dedicated to investigating the causes of important public health problems, to use this knowledge to improve the prevention and treatment of diseases, and to provide a base for specialist training in medical research. Our particular focus is on research which has the potential to lead to improvements in clinical management. Chairman’s Report It is with great pleasure that I write the preface for the 2019 Annual Report of the Medical Research Institute of New Zealand. A highlight for the year was the benchmarking of the research performance of the MRINZ with the eight universities in New Zealand. This assessment using independent metrics derived from SciVal showed the impact of the research undertaken by the MRINZ markedly outperformed that of the New Zealand universities, and the quality of the publications was also better. These findings reflect the commitment of the MRINZ to undertake quality research that challenges dogma, and has the potential to increase knowledge and change clinical practice. The MRINZ continues to make a major international impact with its clinically-based research aimed at improving the treatment of common medical conditions. The MRINZ has research programmes in the fields of alternative and complementary medicine, asthma, cardiothoracic surgery, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), education, emerging therapeutics, intensive care, Māori and Pacific Health, medicinal cannabis, oxygen therapy, pharmacy, pleural disease, respiratory physiology, rhinothermy, stroke and rehabilitation. Major advances have been made in many of these fields in the last year with the research findings having a significant impact on medical management and public health policy.

  • Description of a Randomised Controlled Trial of Inhaled Corticosteroid/Fast-Onset LABA Reliever Therapy in Mild Asthma
    ERJ Express. Published on February 4, 2016 as doi: 10.1183/13993003.01692-2015 LETTER | IN PRESS| CORRECTED PROOF Description of a randomised controlled trial of inhaled corticosteroid/fast-onset LABA reliever therapy in mild asthma To the Editor: This paper describes the rationale and design of the Novel START (Symbicort Turbuhaler Asthma Reliever Therapy) randomised controlled trial of inhaled corticosteroid (ICS)/fast-onset long-acting β agonist (LABA) reliever therapy in mild asthma. The main focus of clinical research and management in asthma is on patients with moderate or severe asthma. There is little attention paid to the “silent majority” with asthma who experience so-called intermittent and mild persistent asthma. These patients are often taking inhaled short-acting β agonist (SABA) therapy alone, to provide symptom relief. However, while use of SABA therapy alone does provide symptom relief, there is little robust evidence supporting the long-term efficacy and safety of treating mild asthma with a SABA alone, or to guide clinicians and patients when to initiate regular low-dose ICS therapy. Further, doctors and patients find it difficult to recognise the need for ICS therapy when symptoms are infrequent and in this situation poor adherence to ICS is common. This has led to consideration of alternative regimens to regular ICS prescription for intermittent or mild asthma. A combination inhaler containing both an ICS and fast-onset LABA, which is used solely as reliever therapy, may be superior to SABA reliever therapy alone, and might be an alternative to regular ICS with SABA reliever therapy in patients with intermittent or mild asthma [1–4].
