Introduction: Exertion-related injuries (ERIs) affect Service Members (SM) worldwide with a direct impact on force readiness. Recent evidence has identified that the diagnostic coding of heat-related clinical illnesses can be subjective and prone to errors. Furthermore, ERIs, often have complex presentations impacting multiple organ systems.

We report updated efficacy and safety from MAIA (median follow-up, 64.5 months), including a subgroup analysis by patient age (<70, ≥70 to <75, ≥75, and ≥80 years).

We show that this analysis allows determination of the structure of both mycobacterial ATP synthase and the supercomplex of respiratory complexes III and IV in their native membrane. The latter structure reveals that the enzyme malate:quinone oxidoreductase (Mqo) physically associates with the respiratory supercomplex, an interaction that is lost on extraction of the proteins from the lipid bilayer.

Consistent diagnostic identification of high-risk disease is desirable to address unmet patient need. The aim was to investigate the consistency of association of co-occurrence of high-risk cytogenetic abnormalities (HRCAs) with prognosis in patients with newly diagnosed MM (NDMM) and relapsed/refractory MM (RRMM), and across a range of treatment modalities.

PD-L1 expression in the tumor microenvironment is a biomarker which may impact the efficacy of immunotherapy. The purpose of this study is to determine the predicative ability of PD-L1 for BCG-unresponsiveness in BCG-naïve high-risk NMIBC.
