Background: This systematic review and meta-analysis assesses the association between metabolic syndrome and breast cancer (BC) outcomes in BC survivors.
Methods: Systematic searches were carried out in PubMed and Embase using variations of the search terms: breast neoplasms (population), metabolic syndrome (exposure), and survival (outcome). Metabolic syndrome was characterized according to the American Heart Association, which includes the presence of three out of five abnormal findings among the risk factors: high blood pressure, high triglycerides, low high-density lipoprotein, high fasting glucose, and central obesity.
Article Synopsis
- Chronic nodular prurigo (CNPG) is a long-lasting skin condition causing severe itching, and its causes and treatments are not well understood, leading to challenges in management.
- A systematic review found limited literature on therapies for non-atopic CNPG, with too few randomized controlled trials to conduct a meaningful meta-analysis.
- Current treatments explored include nemolizumab and thalidomide, but evidence is inadequate; ongoing RCTs may lead to better-targeted therapies in the future.
Background: Systemic immunosuppressive treatments are central in the treatment of severe atopic dermatitis (AD). Yet, comparative data are sparse on the performance of such immunosuppressive treatments in pediatric cohorts with severe AD.
Objective: This study aimed to examine the drug survival of systemic immunosuppressive treatments in a cohort of children with severe AD.
