One of the biggest limitations faced by autistic people is the lack of knowledge of their condition. Our study aims to evaluate and discuss the knowledge of autism among nurses, which is a social and health category often in close contact with autistic people. Given the limited exploration of awareness levels about autism among healthcare professionals, this study aims to investigate general and specific knowledge of autism within a group of nursing students enrolled in a master's degree.

- - Immune effector cell-associated hematotoxicity (ICAHT) significantly affects patients undergoing CAR T-cell therapy, and the factors linked to severe forms of it are not well understood.
- - Researchers identified key pre-infusion and post-infusion factors that predict early severe ICAHT in a study involving 691 patients; these included disease type, blood counts, inflammatory and coagulopathy markers.
- - Two predictive models (eIPMPre and eIPMPost) were developed and validated, showing strong accuracy in predicting severe ICAHT, with the post-infusion model being particularly effective; an online tool for individualized predictions is available for use.
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). Despite the availability of clinical and molecular algorithms applied for the prediction of prognosis, in up to 30%-40% of patients, intrinsic or acquired drug resistance occurs. Constitutional genetics may help to predict R-CHOP resistance.

- The combination of femininity and inequality in social medicine is increasingly recognized, particularly regarding disabled and neurodivergent girls and women at menarche, which significantly impacts their mental and reproductive health.
- Selected studies indicate a lack of understanding and specialized services for menstruating autistic girls and women, even though they often don’t perceive menstruation negatively.
- There is a pressing need to investigate menstruation's effects on autistic individuals more thoroughly, and a proposed social medical program aims to enhance sexual education and body awareness for this demographic.
