Background: Cholecystectomy is considered the definitive treatment option for cholecystitis, and patients living with Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias (PLWDs) are at risk for increased mortality, complications, and delirium. However, the effect of different treatment options for cholecystitis among PLWDs has not been elucidated; therefore, this study compares outcomes following cholecystectomy, cholecystostomy tube, and medical management of cholecystitis among this high-risk group.
Method: We conducted a retrospective analysis of Medicare claims data from 1/1/2016-12/31/2020.

Besides various infectious and inflammatory complications, recent studies also indicated the significance of NLRP3 inflammasome in cancer progression and therapy. NLRP3-mediated immune response and pyroptosis could be helpful or harmful in the progression of cancer, and also depend on the nature of the tumor microenvironment. The activation of NLRP3 inflammasome could increase immune surveillance and the efficacy of immunotherapy.

Introduction: The field of genomics is rapidly evolving and has made significant impact on the diagnosis and understanding of rare and genetic diseases, in guiding precision medicine in cancer treatment, and in providing personalized risk assessment for disease development and treatment responses. However, according to the literature, there is widespread socio economic and racial inequities in the diagnosis, treatment, and in the use of genomic medicine services. This policy review sets out to explore the concept of equity in access to genomic care, the level of inclusion of equity and how it is addressed and what mechanisms are in place to achieve equity in genomic care in the international health policy.
