This methodological paper explores the intricacies of implementing evidence-based medicine in the health care sector specifically focusing on the clinical practice guideline (CPG) published by the American Physical Therapy Association's Academy of Oncologic Physical Therapy for diagnosing upper quadrant lymphedema secondary to cancer (diagnosis CPG). Although CPGs are widely available, their implementation into clinical practice remains inconsistent, slow, and complex. To address this challenge, this paper employs the Knowledge-to-Action framework, offering a detailed description of the seven stages through the lens of an in-progress case study on the implementation of the diagnosis CPG.

Institute of Virology, Technical University of Munich/Helmholtz Munich, Munich, Germany.
Article Synopsis
- SARS-CoV-2 can infect liver cells (hepatocytes), leading to elevated liver enzymes and more severe disease in those with pre-existing liver conditions.
- The study shows that the virus replicates and spreads in hepatocytes, with infection being dependent on two specific proteins, ACE2 and TMPRSS2, which are found on the liver cells.
- Infection causes rapid liver cell death, with the Omicron variant causing quicker but less extensive damage compared to other strains, as seen in both human liver cells and infected mice.

January 2025
Faculty of Medical Sciences, Pharmacology and Toxicology Department, University of Kragujevac, Kragujevac, Serbia.
Purposes: Intermediate-risk prostate cancer (IR PCa) is the most common risk group for localized prostate cancer. This study aimed to develop a machine learning (ML) model that utilizes biopsy predictors to estimate the probability of IR PCa and assess its performance compared to the traditional clinical model.
Methods: Between January 2017 and December 2022, patients with prostate-specific antigen (PSA) values of ≤ 20 ng/mL underwent transrectal ultrasonography-guided prostate biopsies.
