Background: Even a gross total resection of a benign epidermoid tumor (ET) carries a high risk of recurrence. The management strategy mostly involves redo surgical excision but at a significant cost of morbidity and mortality. The role of adjuvant radiation therapies in this scenario is still undefined.

Background: Despite decades of post-allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) growth factor utilization, its role remains undefined, leading to ongoing debates and research. The theoretical impacts of growth factors have been challenged in numerous studies.
Methods: In this retrospective cohort study conducted at the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre, we analyzed the clinical outcomes of 509 patients who underwent allogeneic HCT between May 1, 2019, and May 31, 2022.

Cocoa-derived flavanols (CDF) may act as prebiotics. However, evidence is inconsistent, and the duration and dose of CDF intake needed to elicit any prebiotic effect are undefined. This randomized, double-blind, crossover study determined the effects of short-term, high-dose dietary supplementation with CDF versus matched placebo on gut microbiota composition in 8 healthy adults.

Background: Gestational Zika virus (ZIKV) infection is associated with the development of congenital Zika syndrome (CZS), which includes microcephaly and fetal demise. The magnitude and quality of orthoflavivirus-specific humoral immunity have been previously linked to the development of CZS. However, the role of ZIKV NS1-specific humoral immunity in mothers and children with prenatal ZIKV exposure and CZS remains undefined.

Background: Outpatient parenteral antibiotic therapy (OPAT) enhances patient safety, improves outcomes, and reduces healthcare costs by decreasing 30-day readmissions and adverse events. However, the optimal structure and follow-up protocols for OPAT programs remain undefined. Identifying high-risk patients for readmission and managing adverse drug events (ADEs) are critical components of OPAT care.
