Cardiovascular outcomes of romosozumab treatment-real-world data analysis.

Romosozumab is a potent treatment for osteoporosis, with significant effects on bone density and fracture prevention. This study evaluated the cardiovascular safety of romosozumab in a real-world cohort of postmenopausal women at high fracture risk. We retrospectively evaluated postmenopausal women who initiated treatment with romosozumab between January 1, 2020, and June 30, 2023.

Risk messaging style and its effect on public preparedness for earthquakes: longitudinal intervention-based study.

This study examines the effect of risk communication styles (fear-based versus empowerment-based) on households' earthquake preparedness. An online longitudinal study with intervention and control groups was conducted using a representative sample of the adult population in Israel. The change in the reported level of preparedness was assessed through Repeated Measures ANOVA with interaction effects for both the risk communication style and gender.
