Background: Risk of VTE recurrence (VTEr) in patients with cancer-associated thrombosis (CAT) is high. Cancer-related risk factors for VTEr have been studied, but information about the importance of location of metastasis is scarce.
Objectives: 1) Evaluate rate of VTEr in CAT patients according to location of metastasis, and 2) Identify variables associated to VTEr during long-term follow-up.
IKKα is known as an essential protein for skin homeostasis. However, the lack of suitable models to investigate its functions in the skin has led to IKKα being mistakenly considered as a suppressor of non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) development. In this study, using our previously generated transgenic mouse models expressing exogenous IKKα in the cytoplasm (C-IKKα mice) or in the nucleus (N-IKKα mice) of basal keratinocytes, we demonstrate that at each subcellular localization, IKKα differently regulates signaling pathways important for maintaining the balance between keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation, and for the cutaneous inflammatory response.

Methods: A single-center, non-interventional study of consecutive patients was conducted between 2007 and 2022, involving patients with CAT (n = 1,277).
Background: Current treatment for chronic kidney disease (CKD) focuses on improving manifestations and delaying progression. Nutritional approaches play a crucial role in CKD management, and various supplements have become available. Ketoanalogues of amino acids (KAs), calcium citrate, and inulin have been proposed as suitable supplements, yet their widespread use has been limited due to insufficient evidence.
