: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) can be the first manifestation of an underlying cancer. This study aimed to develop a predictive model to assess the risk of occult cancer between 30 days and 24 months after a venous thrombotic event using machine learning (ML). : We designed a case-control study nested in a cohort of patients with VTE included in a prospective registry from two Spanish hospitals between 2005 and 2021.

Unlabelled: Allogeneic transplantation (HSCT) is a curative option for several hematological diseases. Our center has privileged the use of identical family donors (IFD) or haploidentical (HD) donors. However, the chances of finding family donors may be challenging in small families or unsuitable donors.

Background: Although the genetic interplay with the environment has a major impact on obesity development, little is known on whether breastfeeding could modulate the genetic predisposition to obesity.
Objectives: To investigate whether breastfeeding attenuates the effect of an obesity genetic risk score (GRS) on adiposity in European adolescents.
Methods: Totally 751 adolescents from the Healthy Lifestyle in Europe by Nutrition in Adolescence (HELENA) cross-sectional study were included, divided according to breastfeeding status into never breastfed, 1-3 months and ≥4 months.

Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) is effective for colorectal cancer peritoneal metastases (CRPM) at increasing overall survival (OS) compared to systemic anticancer treatment (SACT) alone. The addition of Oxaliplatin heated intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) has been shown in a randomized controlled trial to result in increased complications without significant OS benefit. This study evaluates outcomes for CRPM patients undergoing CRS+HIPEC with Oxaliplatin (Ox) 368mg/m (30 min), versus Mitomycin C (MMC) 35mg/m (90min).

Purpose Of Review: The epidemiologic phenomenon known as the "Hispanic paradox" postulates that Hispanic/Latino Americans generally tend to live longer than other racial/ethnic communities, despite facing many socioeconomic disadvantages and other healthcare barriers. Whether this phenomenon is relevant among kidney transplantation (KT) recipients remains unclear. To investigate the possibility of a Hispanic mortality advantage, we conducted a systematic review of the published literature comparing short-term KT outcomes (first 12-months) for US Hispanic versus non-Hispanic White KT recipients.
