Text Messaging Versus Postal Reminders to Improve Participation in a Colorectal Cancer Screening Program: Randomized Controlled Trial.
JMIR Mhealth Uhealth
January 2025
see Acknowledgments, .
Background: Mobile phone SMS text message reminders have shown moderate effects in improving participation rates in ongoing colorectal cancer screening programs.
Objective: This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of SMS text messages as a replacement for routine postal reminders in a fecal immunochemical test-based colorectal cancer screening program in Catalonia, Spain.
Methods: We conducted a randomized controlled trial among individuals aged 50 to 69 years who were invited to screening but had not completed their fecal immunochemical test within 6 weeks.
Study protocol for COVID-19 breakthrough infections and vaccine-induced immune response among a cohort of healthcare workers, Bangladesh.

US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Atlanta, GA, United States of America.
Background: To optimize vaccination strategies, it is useful to detect breakthrough infections and assess vaccine effectiveness in programmatic use. Monitoring emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants and vaccine effectiveness against them is also essential to determine the most effective vaccine options. This study aims to monitor SARS-CoV-2 breakthrough infections, the emergence of new SARS-CoV-2 variants, and host immune response during the peri-infection period of COVID-19.

Background: The individual treatment response in people with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) remain unpredictable. In order to support medical decisions, we aimed to predict response to fingolimod compared to placebo, by developing and validating prognostic multivariable models.
Methods: We included two-year follow-up from intention-to-treat populations of two multi-country placebo-controlled randomized controlled trials (RCT) of daily fingolimod 0.
Emergence of Circulating Tumor DNA as a Precision Biomarker in Lung Cancer Radiation Oncology and Beyond.
Hematol Oncol Clin North Am

Department of Radiation Oncology, Mayo Clinic, 200 First Street SW, Rochester, MN 55905, USA. Electronic address:
Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is emerging as a transformative biomarker in the management of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This review focuses on its role in detecting minimal residual disease (MRD), predicting treatment response, and guiding therapeutic decision-making in radiation oncology and immunotherapy. Key studies demonstrate ctDNA's prognostic value, particularly in identifying relapse risk and refining patient stratification for curative-intent and consolidative treatments.
