Background/aims: Certain sociodemographic groups are routinely underrepresented in clinical trials, limiting generalisability. Here, we describe the extent to which enriched enrolment approaches yielded a diverse trial population enriched for older age in a randomised controlled trial of a blood-based multi-cancer early detection test (NCT05611632).
Methods: Participants aged 50-77 years were recruited from eight Cancer Alliance regions in England.

The background for establishing and verifying a dehydration prediction model for elderly patients with post-stroke dysphagia (PSD) based on General Utility for Latent Process (GULP) is as follows: For elderly patients with PSD, GULP technology is utilized to build a dehydration prediction model. This aims to improve the accuracy of dehydration risk assessment and provide clinical intervention, thereby offering a scientific basis and enhancing patient prognosis. This research highlights the innovative application of GULP technology in constructing complex medical prediction models and addresses the special health needs of elderly stroke patients.

January 2025
Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Faculty of Medicine, Gazi University, Ankara, Turkey.
Background: Surface electromyography (sEMG) has been used in a wide range of studies conducted in the field of dysphagia.
Objectives: The main aim of this case-control study is to obtain how submental and infrahyoid sEMG signals differ based on residue, penetration and aspiration.
Methods: A total of 100 participants (50 patients with suspected dysphagia and 50 healthy controls) were enrolled in the present study.

Department of Social Sciences, Faculty of Health Sciences, Semmelweis University, 1085 Budapest, Hungary.
Background: Breastfeeding in Syria is a common practice supported by social norms, family traditions, and cultural values. In Hungary, recent statistics show that exclusive breastfeeding is significantly lower than the recommendation of the World Health Organization. Understanding the perspectives of educated young ladies is crucial for discovering the difficulties of breastfeeding practices within Syrian-Hungarian societies.
