Understanding the health care needs of transgender and gender diverse people engaging with rural Australian sexual health centres: a qualitative interview study.

Background: Although there is a presumption that LGBTQ+ people living in rural Australia will have poorer health outcomes than those living in metropolitan areas, minimal research has focused specifically on the perspectives of transgender and gender diverse (henceforth referred to as 'trans') people living in these regions. The purpose of this study was to understand what health and wellbeing means to trans people in a regional or rural community and identify their health needs and experiences.

Methods: A total of 21 trans people were recruited through two regional sexual health centres (SHC) and interviewed between April and August 2021.

Disappearing colorectal liver metastases in the era of state-of-the-art triple-modality diagnostic imaging.

Introduction: Systemic therapy can result in disappearance of colorectal liver metastases in up to 40% of patients. This might be an overestimation caused by suboptimal imaging modalities. The aim of this study was to investigate the use of imaging modalities and the incidence, management and outcome of patients with disappearing liver metastases (DLMs).

Non-hereditary early onset gastric cancer: An unmet medical need.

Gastric cancer (GC) is a lethal disease and the diagnosis in the young population is a major challenge from both individual and social point of views. Early-onset GC accounts for ∼5% of GC; among them, 3% are part of a hereditary syndrome and the majority are sporadic. However, even if the early-onset forms were less frequent in the past, the increasing number in the last decades has improved the interest and awareness of them in the society and in the scientific community.

Resistance to Antiangiogenic Therapy in Hepatocellular Carcinoma: From Molecular Mechanisms to Clinical Impact.

Antiangiogenic drugs were the only mainstay of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treatment from 2007 to 2017. However, primary or secondary resistance hampered their efficacy. Primary resistance could be due to different molecular and/or genetic characteristics of HCC and their knowledge would clarify the optimal treatment approach in each patient.

Reversibility of glyphosate sorption in pampean loess-derived soil profiles of central Argentina.

There is a growing concern about glyphosate's behavior in the environment. Herbicide behavior in soils greatly depends on adsorption-desorption phenomena, which have shown great variability in soils, although the reversibility of this process has been less examined. The adsorption-desorption behavior of glyphosate was measured on representative soil profiles of the northeast region of Argentinean Pampas, a semi-arid crop cultivating region.
