Venetoclax plus azacitidine represents a key advance for older, unfit patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The chemotherapy and venetoclax in elderly AML trial (CAVEAT) was first to combine venetoclax with intensive chemotherapy in newly diagnosed patients ≥65 years. In this final analysis, 85 patients (median age 71 years) were followed for a median of 41.

Background: The Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) is a systematic and structured assessment tool that evaluates candidates' professional medical skills in a simulated environment through a series of time-limited stations. The aim of this meta-analysis was to determine the optimal station number and duration time per station of OSCE to achieve good reliability.
Methods: A comprehensive search was conducted across PubMed and Embase from inception until August 2024, without language restrictions.

Purpose Of Review: Neuroprognostication after acute brain injury (ABI) is complex. In this review, we examine the threats to accurate neuroprognostication, discuss strategies to mitigate the self-fulfilling prophecy, and how to approach the indeterminate prognosis.
Recent Findings: The goal of neuroprognostication is to provide a timely and accurate prediction of a patient's neurologic outcome so treatment can proceed in accordance with a patient's values and preferences.

In the past decade, the treatment paradigm for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) has markedly shifted from traditional chemoimmunotherapy towards targeted therapies. A fixed-duration, targeted regimen with venetoclax, a potent oral BCL-2 inhibitor, combined with obinutuzumab, a glycoengineered type II anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody (Ven-Obi), has become the standard to beat for time-limited therapy in CLL. Ven-Obi allows for the rapid induction of remissions with high rates of undetectable minimal residual disease (uMRD) in patients across different treatment settings.
