Bimekizumab Efficacy in High-Impact Areas: Pooled 2-Year Analysis in Scalp, Nail, and Palmoplantar Psoriasis from Phase 3/3b Randomized Controlled Trials.

Introduction: Psoriasis in high-impact areas, including the scalp, nails, palms, and soles, can disproportionately impair patient quality of life. Here, we evaluate the 2-year efficacy of bimekizumab treatment in patients with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis in post hoc analyses of five phase 3/3b trials.

Methods: High-impact area efficacy data were pooled through 2 years across five phase 3/3b trials: BE VIVID, BE READY, BE SURE, their ongoing open-label extension (OLE) BE BRIGHT, and BE RADIANT (including its double-blinded treatment period and the first year of its OLE).

Multi-institutional Evaluation and Training of Breast Density Classification AI Algorithm Using ACR Connect and AI-LAB.

Objective: To demonstrate and test the capabilities of the American College of Radiology (ACR) Connect and AI-LAB software platform by implementing multi-institutional artificial intelligence (AI) training and validation for breast density classification.

Methods: In this proof-of-concept study, six U.S.

Geographic variation in kidney failure and transplantation in Aotearoa New Zealand: A population-based data linkage study.

Aim: This study aimed to describe the epidemiology of kidney replacement therapy (KRT) in Aotearoa New Zealand and assess the impact of residential location on access to kidney transplantation.

Methods: AcceSS and Equity in Transplantation (ASSET), a health-linked data platform, was used to identify people commencing KRT in New Zealand from 2006 to 2019 and analyse regional epidemiology. Health services were classified as 'transplanting', 'intermediate' or 'remote' depending on their degree of separation from a transplant centre.

Validating the CogSleep Screener in older adults at a memory and cognition clinic.

While sleep disturbances are prevalent in older people and are linked with poor health and cognitive outcomes, screening for the range of sleep disturbances is inefficient and therefore not ideal nor routine in memory and cognition clinic settings. We aimed to develop and validate a new brief self-report questionnaire for easy use within memory and cognition clinics. The design for this study was cross-sectional.
