Core Competencies of the Public Health Workforce in Climate Change and Extreme Weather Events Preparedness, Response, and Recovery: A Scoping Review.

Climate change poses a significant threat to public health and safety, necessitating an urgent, coordinated response. Public health officials must be well-trained to effectively prepare for, respond to, and recover from extreme weather events. Despite emerging frameworks, a gap remains in their systematic application, risking future unpreparedness.

Founder vs. non-founder BRCA1/2 pathogenic alleles: the analysis of Belarusian breast and ovarian cancer patients and review of other studies on ethnically homogenous populations.

The spectrum of BRCA1/2 mutations demonstrates significant interethnic variations. We analyzed for the first time the entire BRCA1/2 coding region in 340 Belarusian cancer patients with clinical signs of BRCA1/2-related disease, including 168 women with bilateral and/or early-onset breast cancer (BC), 104 patients with ovarian cancer and 68 subjects with multiple primary malignancies involving BC and/or OC. BRCA1/2 pathogenic alleles were detected in 98 (29%) women, with 67 (68%) of these being represented by founder alleles.

Gastric Cancer in BRCA1 Germline Mutation Carriers: Results of Endoscopic Screening and Molecular Analysis of Tumor Tissues.

Introduction: There is some evidence suggesting a link between BRCA1/2 germline mutations and increased risk of gastric cancer.

Methods: Endoscopic screening for stomach malignancies was performed in 120 BRCA1 mutation carriers in order to evaluate the probability of detecting the tumor disease.

Results: No instances of gastric cancer were revealed at the first visit.
