Women residing in rural areas have worse breast cancer survival rates than urban women, but no study has focused on rural versus urban residence in Utah regarding breast cancer screening and mortality.
Methods: Cases (nā=ā14,516) were women aged >ā39 diagnosed with a first primary invasive breast cancer between 1998 and 2017 in Utah.
Pseudoangiomatous stromal hyperplasia (PASH) is a benign but rare mesenchymal proliferation of the mammary stroma, characterized by pseudovascular spaces within a hyperplastic matrix. PASH can be classified as either non-tumor-forming or tumor-forming.

It compares the effectiveness of physiotherapy exercise rehabilitation with integrated support for exercise adherence, to physiotherapy exercise rehabilitation alone, for people with vertebral fragility fracture (VFF) and back pain. This paper describes the development of the physiotherapist-led adherence enhanced intervention.

Gram-negative bacteria (G-NB) contain multiple TLR, NOD and STING agonists. Potential utility of G-NB for cancer immunotherapy is supported by observations of tumor regression in the setting of infection and Coley's Toxins.
