  1. NICE encourages further research into balloon pulmonary angioplasty for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension. Details of patient selection, all complications, and subsequent treatments and interventions for pulmonary hypertension should be collected. Reports should include quality-of-life outcomes, long-term efficacy outcomes and survival. NICE may update the guidance on publication of further evidence.

  2. NICE encourages further research into intravesical microwave hyperthermia and chemotherapy for non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Research should include randomised controlled trials, which stratify patients by risk and give adequate follow-up. They should report frequency of adverse events, patientreported outcome measures, overall and disease-free survival and quality of life.

  3. NICE encourages further research into CXL using riboflavin and UVA for keratoconus and keratectasia, especially epithelium-on (transepithelial) CXL and the combination (CXL-plus) procedures. Details of the techniques used should be clearly described. Reported outcomes should include visual acuity, corneal topography and quality of life. Data on long-term outcomes for all types of CXL using riboflavin and UVA for keratoconus and keratectasia would be useful – specifically data about prevention of progression to corneal transplantation and about repeat procedures and their efficacy.

  6. NICE encourages further research into endoscopic radiofrequency ablation for Barrett's oesophagus with no dysplasia. Studies should define clearly the policies used for histological diagnosis. Outcomes should include complete resolution of Barrett's oesophagus, change and progression to low-grade dysplasia, high-grade dysplasia or cancer. All complications should be reported, particularly development of strictures. Comparative studies against surveillance would be useful.

  11. NICE encourages further research into extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) for Achilles tendinopathy, which may include comparative data collection. Studies should clearly describe patient selection, treatment protocols, use of local anaesthesia and the type and duration of energy applied (see section 3). Studies should include validated outcome measures and have a minimum of 1 year of follow-up. NICE may update the guidance on publication of further evidence.
