Objective: This clinical trial investigated the safety and efficacy of single-cycle pembrolizumab in patients with localized deficient mismatch repair (dMMR) colon cancer.

Background: Neoadjuvant immunotherapy has induced remarkable rates of pathological complete response in patients with dMMR colon cancer. However, the optimal length and type of treatment are yet to be determined.

Introduction: Total neoadjuvant treatment (TNT) with induction chemotherapy (ICT) followed by chemoradiotherapy (CRT) has improved long-term outcomes for patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). However, long-term outcomes have not been investigated for patients with incomplete (R1) resection separately. This study investigates overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS) and local and distant recurrence rates in patients with R1 resection after preoperative treatment with ICT and CRT or CRT.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the link between cardiac output (CO) and hypertension disorders during pregnancy, specifically preeclampsia, in women with and without fetal growth restriction (FGR).
  • In a cohort of 906 pregnant women, findings suggest that low CO is a significant risk factor for preeclampsia, especially in those below 37 weeks of gestation, with women having FGR being at an even higher risk.
  • The research highlights the potential importance of monitoring third-trimester cardiovascular function to identify women at risk for preeclampsia, although more studies are needed to confirm these findings.
