Background: Fabry disease is a rare genetic lysosomal storage disorder, whereby the accumulation of sphingolipids consequently leads to kidney structural damage and dysfunction. We explored the epidemiology of chronic kidney disease (CKD) among patients with Fabry disease at a major UK referral centre in Greater Manchester serving over 7 million people, to inform early predictors of kidney disease and possible treatment planning.
Methods: Data were sourced from the electronic records of registered participants from November 2020 to February 2022 of adults diagnosed with Fabry disease, with at least 1 year of follow-up.
Purpose: The OlympiA randomized phase III trial compared 1 year of olaparib (OL) or placebo (PL) as adjuvant therapy in patients with germline , high-risk human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative early breast cancer after completing (neo)adjuvant chemotherapy ([N]ACT), surgery, and radiotherapy. The patient-reported outcome primary hypothesis was that OL-treated patients may experience greater fatigue during treatment.
Methods: Data were collected before random assignment, and at 6, 12, 18, and 24 months.
Introduction: Radiation cardiotoxicity is a dose-limiting toxicity and major survivorship issue for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) completing curative-intent radiotherapy, however patients' cardiovascular baseline is not routinely optimised prior to treatment. In this study we examined the impact of statin therapy on overall survival and post-radiotherapy cardiac events.
Methods: Patients treated between 2015-2020 at a regional center were identified.
