A Canadian real-world, multi-center, prospective, observational study assessing the treatment duration, the treatment sequence, and the overall survival for patients treated with endocrine therapy ± targeted therapy in HR + HER2-negative advanced breast cancer.

Purpose: Understanding real-world treatment patterns and their effectiveness in HR + HER2- advanced breast cancer (aBC) in Canadian patients.

Patient And Methods: This was a multi-center, observational, prospective cohort study including men and pre-/peri-/postmenopausal women with HR + HER2- aBC receiving endocrine therapy (ET) or ET + targeted therapy (ET + TT). The primary objective was duration of treatment (DOT) with ET and ET + TT.

Workplace and social support, treatment satisfaction, and their impact on quality of life in Swedish women with multiple sclerosis: a cross-sectional survey study.

Objective: To evaluate health-related quality of life (HRQoL), in relation to support from work, social, as well as treatment satisfaction, in women with multiple sclerosis (MS). Further, to predict the satisfaction on these support dimensions based on sociodemographic and clinical variables.

Design: Cross-sectional survey: a web-based questionnaire conducted in 2021 of people with MS (PwMS) linked to Nationwide Swedish registers.

Immune checkpoint inhibitor-associated gastrointestinal adverse events in patients with colorectal cancer.

Background: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) target microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) tumors with success. The incidence and characteristics of ICI-related colitis (IMC) in patients with MSI-H colorectal cancers (CRC) are unclear.

Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of adult patients with CRC who received ICI between June 1, 2014, and December 31, 2022, including data on IMC observed up to 3 months after the last dose of ICI.

Humic acid from vermicompost effectively regulates the redox status and mitigates the progression of experimental periodontitis.

The progression of periodontal disease (PD) involves the action of oxidative stress mediators. Antioxidant agents may potentially attenuate the development of this condition. Thus, we aimed to evaluate the effects of different doses of humic acid (HA), extracted from biomass vermicomposting, on redox status and parameters related to PD progression in rats.
