Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) and acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) remain significant challenges in haematological oncology. This review examines the pathophysiology, classification, and risk stratification of these aggressive malignancies, emphasising their impact on treatment strategies and prognosis. We discuss current standard-of-care treatments, including chemotherapy regimens and targeted therapies, while addressing the associated adverse effects and hypersensitivity reactions.

- The study focuses on patients with rib fractures, a common injury in trauma admissions, and aims to use mobile platforms to monitor their postdischarge pain and mental health through patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs).
- Among the 72 patients studied, over half experienced moderate to severe pain two weeks after discharge, with higher initial pain levels linked to worse outcomes.
- Results indicate that while early pain is associated with increased mental health symptoms, patients showed notable improvement in both pain and mental health over the following weeks, underscoring the value of using technology for patient care.
Student engagement with learning material is significantly affected by if, and how, students will be assessed. Despite the influence of assessment technique on student engagement, traditional methods like multiple-choice question examinations are most common despite known limitations. Authentic assessment, an alternative option, is a method that simulates a real-world scenario or problem encountered in practice where students must demonstrate a task or skill or create a product as a final outcome.

Methods: Single-center mixed-methods pilot study of a novel "food is medicine" intervention evaluating acceptability, satisfaction, and opportunities for refinement. CHEF participants were provided: (1) meal-kit delivery for 3 household meals/week for 3 months and (2) application assistance for federal nutrition benefits.
High-energy nuclear collisions create a quark-gluon plasma, whose initial condition and subsequent expansion vary from event to event, impacting the distribution of the eventwise average transverse momentum [P([p_{T}])]. Disentangling the contributions from fluctuations in the nuclear overlap size (geometrical component) and other sources at a fixed size (intrinsic component) remains a challenge. This problem is addressed by measuring the mean, variance, and skewness of P([p_{T}]) in ^{208}Pb+^{208}Pb and ^{129}Xe+^{129}Xe collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=5.
