Introduction: Long-term childhood, adolescent, and young adult cancer survivors (CAYACS) are at risk of fatigue and psychological problems. However, their interactions remain largely unexplored. Understanding how they cluster can inform treatment and person-centered follow-up care.

- - The study investigates the potential link between human papillomavirus (HPV) infections during pregnancy and negative pregnancy outcomes, such as hypertensive disorders, gestational diabetes, and low birth weight newborns.
- - Data were collected from pregnant women in Norway and Sweden, examining urine samples for various HPV genotypes and analyzing their association with adverse outcomes using statistical models.
- - Results showed that 40% of participants had at least one HPV genotype, with 24% being high-risk types, indicating a notable prevalence, although the relationship between HPV and adverse outcomes is still being explored.
Purpose: In childhood cancer survivors (CCS), high physical activity (PA) and low sedentary time may reduce risks of late-effects. PA behaviors and screen time, and how they relate to moderate-to-vigorous PA (MVPA) in CCS, are largely unknown. We examined PA behaviors and screen time, and their cross-sectional associations with MVPA.

To assess long-term incidence trends, tumour thickness was extracted from pathology reports in the Cancer Registry of Norway (1983-2007) and the Norwegian Melanoma Registry (2008-2019), n = 45,635 patients. Across all anatomic sites, T1 (≤ 1 mm) incidence increased most (men annual percentage change [AAPC] = 4.

- This study investigates the impact of nicotine exposure during pregnancy, particularly from smokeless tobacco (snus) and cigarettes, on infant lung function in a cohort of 1,163 infants measured at 3 months old.
- Results show that 10.3% of infants were exposed to nicotine in utero, with those exposed having a higher risk of lower lung function, indicated by an odds ratio of 1.63.
- The findings suggest both smoking and snus use during pregnancy can adversely affect infant respiratory health, and this effect is not significantly different between male and female infants.
