Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to identify why patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) in Russia have a poor prognosis, using data from various population samples and medical records over several years.
  • It established the prevalence of CHF in the Russian population, finding that 8.2% of individuals meet soft criteria for CHF, while 3.1% met strict criteria, with significant influences from conditions like hypertension and ischemic heart disease.
  • The prognosis for these patients is grim, with over half dying within four years after acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF), and most patients with severe CHF not surviving beyond ten years, primarily due to inadequate medication use and poor patient follow-up.

Background: Lymphoma treatment can lead to long-term consequences such as fatigue, infertility and organ damage. In clinical trials, survival outcomes, clinical response and toxicity are extensively reported while the assessment of treatment on quality of life (QoL) and symptoms is often lacking.

Objective: We evaluated the use and frequency of patient-reported outcome (PRO) instruments used in randomized controlled trials (RCTs) for Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) and their consistency of reporting.

Introduction And Hypothesis: The objective was to validate the translated Russian version of the prolapse quality-of-life (P-QoL) questionnaire and test its applicability to assess the impact of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) on QoL and the effect of treatment in women undergoing reconstructive surgery.

Methods: Following a forward- and back-translation of the original English P-QOL questionnaire into Russian, the translated questionnaire was reviewed by a group of patients as well as an expert panel. Women with POP who were admitted to a university hospital for reconstructive surgery were recruited.

In the era of personalized medicine there is an increasing need for the assessment of patient-reported outcomes (PROs) to become a standard of patient care. Patient-reported outcome measures (PROM) are important in assessing significant and meaningful changes as a result of an intervention based on a patient's own perspective. It is well established that active multiple myeloma (MM) can be characterized by a high burden of disease and treatment-related symptoms, with considerable worsening of quality of life (QoL).
