Novel Genetic Variants Explaining Severe Adverse Drug Events after Clinical Implementation of Genotype-Guided Therapy with Fluoropyrimidines: An Observational Study.

Fluoropyrimidines (FPs) are commonly prescribed in many cancer streams. The EMA and FDA-approved drug labels for FPs recommend genotyping the *2A (rs3918290), *13 (rs55886062), *HapB3 (rs56038477), alleles, and rs67376798 before treatment starts. We implemented the genotyping in our daily clinical routine, but we still found patients showing severe adverse drug events (ADEs) to FPs.

Social services for the elderly: a multivariate perspective study.

Introduction: Today's society is aware that healthy aging favors quality of life in the future, even more so as life expectancy increases in populations such as Europe. As in countries such as Japan, it is necessary for institutions to provide social services to support the elderly, with the aim of achieving an optimal quality of life for these people. The aim of this study is to analyze the different types of social services and activities that certain institutions provide to the elderly in order to find areas for improvement or to propose relationships between them that will benefit both users and institutions.

Lessons Learned in Elective Surgeries After 6 Pandemic Waves of SARS-CoV-2. A Single European Center Experience.

Background: The reported high surgical morbidity and mortality in patients with SARS-CoV-2 prompted preoperative screening and modification of surgical protocols. Although vaccination and treatment of COVID-19 have resulted in lower hospitalization rates and infection severity, publications on postoperative results have not been updated. The aim of the study was to analyze the outcomes of patients undergoing surgery in two periods with high incidence of SARS-CoV-2 infection, before and after vaccination.

Metal-free design of a multilayered metamaterial with chirped Bragg grating for enhanced radiative cooling.

A wideband, all-dielectric metamaterial structure for enhancing radiative cooling is investigated. The structure is optimized to reflect most of the solar irradiance window (between 0.3 µm-3 µm), which is one of the biggest challenges in highly efficient radiative cooling coatings.
