Background: Despite global declines in cervical cancer incidence, certain regions observe unexpected rising trends among younger generations.
Methods: This study uses the age-period-cohort model to examine long-term incidence trends of invasive cervical cancer in Taiwan. Data were sourced from the Taiwan Cancer Registry.
Background: Ovarian cancer is one of the top seven causes of cancer deaths. Incidence of ovarian cancer varies by ethnicity, where Asian women demonstrate lower incidence rates than non-Hispanic Blacks and Whites. Survival prediction models for ovarian cancer have been developed for Caucasians and Black populations using national databases; however, whether these models work for Asians is unclear.

The key challenge is achieving selectivity for one particular C(sp)-H bond. In recent years, metalloenzymes have been found to perform C(sp)-H bond functionalization.

- Deep-ultraviolet (DUV) light is crucial for various fields such as manufacturing, molecular research, and biomedical imaging.
- Aluminum nitride (AlN) metalenses offer a cost-effective and durable solution, achieving DUV focusing capabilities with a thin design of just 380 nm.
- These metalenses successfully withstand intense laser conditions, enabling the precise creation of microstructures on different materials, highlighting their potential in advancing photonic technologies.
Objective: Type1Screen offers islet autoantibody testing to Australians with a family history of type 1 diabetes (T1D) with the dual aims of preventing diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and enabling use of disease-modifying therapy. We describe screening and monitoring outcomes 2 years after implementing in-home capillary blood spot sampling.
Research Design And Methods: Data from 2,064 participants who registered between July 2022 and June 2024 were analyzed: 1,507 and 557 chose blood spot and venipuncture screening respectively.
