It has been shown that when calculating the summarized population's health index and the significance (weight) of partial signs, it is expedient to use the calculation from the potential death risk index rather than an expert judgment. The results of calculation examples using morbidity and mortality rates suggest that public health can be assessed on this methodic ground. It is advisable to apply the proposed method for assessing the population's health during sanitary-and-epidemiological surveillance (sociohygienic monitoring) when decisions are taken on the lines of health-promotion measures to reduce morbidity and mortality mainly by circulatory diseases, neoplasms, injuries, and intoxications.

Feasibility of a Mobile App-Based Cognitive-Behavioral Perinatal Skills Program: Protocol for Nonrandomized Pilot Trial.
JMIR Res Protoc

Psychiatry Department, Weill Cornell Medicine, New York, NY, United States.
Background: Mental illness is one of the top causes of preventable pregnancy-related deaths in the United States. There are many barriers that interfere with the ability of perinatal individuals to access traditional mental health care. Digital health interventions, including app-based programs, have the potential to increase access to useful tools for these individuals.

January 2025
St John's Institute of Dermatology, Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust, London, UK.
Background: In recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB), complications like oesophageal strictures, hand contractures, cardiomyopathy and cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) may develop, necessitating procedures such as oesophageal dilatation (OD), gastrostomy tube placement and hand surgery.
Objectives: To determine prevalence and age of onset of milestone events by RDEB subtype, specifically dysphagia, first OD, first gastrostomy tube, first hand surgery, cardiomyopathy, first SCC and death.
Methods: The Prospective Epidermolysis Bullosa Longitudinal Evaluation Study (PEBLES) is a register study of individuals with RDEB which records comprehensive EB- and non-EB-related health information.
Investigating the Anticancer Properties of Bacterial Toxoid in Combination Vaccines.

Experimental Therapy Department, Iraqi Center for Cancer and Medical Genetic Research. Mustansiriyah University, Baghdad, Iraq.
Background: The use of bacterial vaccines as a potential Bacterial-Based Cancer Therapy (BBCT) presents an innovative approach, transforming these vaccines into multifunctional tools capable of serving dual roles in medicine.
Materials And Methods: This study aimed to conduct in vitro, immunity-independent experiments to investigate the anticancer properties of vaccine-derived bacterial toxoids on various cancer cell lines. Six concentrations of the DTP vaccine (5 x 10-4, 25 x 10-5, 125 x 10-6, 625 x 10-7, 312 x 10-7, and 15 x 10-6 µg/ml) were tested on two cancer cell lines (SKG and HCAM) and a normal Rat Embryonic Fibroblast (REF) cell line.

Cachar Cancer Hospital and Research Center, NS Avenue, Meherpur, Silchar, Assam, India.
Objective: Cancer remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality globally, with India experiencing a significant cancer burden. Effective population-based cancer screening is crucial for early detection and reduction of cancer-related deaths. This study aims to develop a mobile application-based Cancer Screening and Surveillance System (CSMS) to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of population-based cancer screening by community health workers (CHWs).

Division of Gastrointestinal Surgery Center, The First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou, Guangdong, 510080, China.
Background: Gastric cancer (GC) ranks as the fourth leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide, with most patients diagnosed at advanced stages due to the absence of reliable early detection biomarkers.
Methods: RNA-sequencing was conducted to identify the differentially expressed genes between GC tissues and adjacent normal tissues. CCK8, EdU, colony formation, transwell, flow cytometry and xenograft assays were adopted to explore the biological function of ZBTB10 and betulinic acid (BA) in GC progression.
