Objective: To assess the prevalence and trends of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in Western Australia (WA) from 2010 to 2020 using linked pathology data.
Design: A retrospective observational cohort study using linked de-identified data from WA pathology providers, hospital morbidity records and mortality records.
Setting: A Western Australian population-based study.

Objectives: To evaluate the availability and consistency of commercial driving eligibility criteria for patients with seizures.
Methods: We systematically evaluated commercial driver's license regulations for patients with epilepsy, first acute symptomatic seizure and first unprovoked seizure in different countries. Government driving authority websites and published guidelines were accessed and if not available, local neurologists were contacted.

Background: Post-operative pancreatic fistula is a common and morbid complication of pancreaticojejunal anastomosis.

This study aims to assess the available literature to provide recommendations on suture choice in this anastomosis.

Background: Tumour hypoxia resulting from inadequate perfusion is common in many solid tumours, including prostate cancer, and constitutes a major limiting factor in radiation therapy that contributes to treatment resistance. Emerging research in preclinical animal models indicates that exercise has the potential to enhance the efficacy of cancer treatment by modulating tumour perfusion and reducing hypoxia; however, evidence from randomised controlled trials is currently lacking. The 'Exercise medicine as adjunct therapy during RADIation for CAncer of the prostaTE' (ERADICATE) study is designed to investigate the impact of exercise on treatment response, tumour physiology, and adverse effects of treatment in prostate cancer patients undergoing external beam radiation therapy (EBRT).
