Background And Objective: Given the uncertainty regarding the role of radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) as part of a multimodal treatment strategy for upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) patients with cN+ disease, we aimed to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of the corresponding literature.
Methods: Using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses guidelines, we identified 17 observational comparative and noncomparative studies, published between January 2000 and September 2024, evaluating UTUC patients with cTanyN+M0 disease (P) who received RNU as part of a multimodal treatment strategy (I), as compared with any treatment strategy if applicable (C), to assess oncological or postoperative outcomes (O). Meta-analyses were further performed, as appropriate.

Article Synopsis
- The study tested if disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) is linked to worse outcomes in patients who had out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) and received veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) treatment.
- 57 patients were divided into two groups: those with DIC (30 patients) and those without (27 patients) and mortality rates were compared.
- Results showed that patients with DIC had significantly higher in-hospital mortality, and DIC scores measured after 24 hours proved to be a moderate predictor of death in these patients.
Introduction: Although maintenance treatment is recommended for the prevention of relapse, in real-world settings, a subset of patients discontinue antipsychotics while having a good prognosis. The prediction of functional remission in patients with schizophrenia after antipsychotic discontinuation (FURSAD) study aims to obtain real-world knowledge regarding the characteristics of schizophrenia (SCZ) patients who achieve functional remission after antipsychotic discontinuation for 1 year or more. This study also aims to establish a prediction model to identify patients likely to benefit from antipsychotic discontinuation.

Background: Liquid biopsies offer less burdensome sensitive disease monitoring. Bone marrow (BM) metastases, common in various cancers including neuroblastoma, is associated with poor outcomes. In pediatric high-risk neuroblastoma most patients initially respond to treatment, but in the majority the disease recurs with only 40% long-term survivors, stressing the need for more sensitive detection of disseminated disease during therapy.

Introduction Orthopaedic surgery frequently involves the use of intra-operative radiographs, commonly taken with surgeons standing in close proximity to the X-ray machine. Radiation training and appropriate radiation protection minimise the harm that surgeons can face from ionising radiation. This study evaluates the current state of radiation training and protective equipment available to orthopaedic surgeons in the East of England.
