Urothelial carcinoma poses significant challenges in clinical management due to its aggressive nature and high prevalence. While most diagnoses involve localized disease, advanced urothelial carcinoma (aUC) often leads to short overall survival (OS). Historically, platinum-based chemotherapy has been the primary treatment for aUC, although its efficacy is limited.

Depression is one of the most common psychiatric conditions. Given its high prevalence and disease burden, accurate diagnostic procedures and valid instruments are warranted to identify those in need of treatment. The Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) is one of the most widely used self-report measures of depression, and its validity and reliability has been evaluated in several languages.

This study sought to understand how young adults (age 18-25) with histories of mental health disorders are coping with disrupted transitions to adulthood during the COVID-19 pandemic. A cross-sectional web survey was conducted in March-June 2021 of 967 US young adults with pre-pandemic psychiatric disability to assess their current psychiatric status, interrupted transitions, and associations with social determinants including income, community participation, and social context. Mental health was assessed with the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9), Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale (GAD-7), and PTSD Checklist-Civilian Version.

Purpose: Coronary endarterectomy combined with coronary artery bypass grafting (CE-CABG) effectively achieves coronary revascularization in patients with diffuse atherosclerotic coronary artery disease (CAD). However, the loss of the subendothelial tissue at the CE-CABG coronary artery accelerates local thrombosis, leading to CE-CABG graft failure. Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAT) and warfarin plus aspirin (WPA) are the two most common anticoagulation strategies post CE-CABG.

Sotorasib is a novel KRAS inhibitor that has shown robust efficacy, safety, and tolerability in patients with KRAS mutation. The objectives of the population pharmacokinetic (PK) analysis were to characterize sotorasib population PK in healthy subjects and patients with advanced solid tumors with KRAS mutation from 6 clinical studies, evaluate the effects of intrinsic and extrinsic factors on PK parameters, and perform simulations to further assess the impact of identified covariates on sotorasib exposures. A two-compartment disposition model with three transit compartments for absorption and time-dependent clearance and bioavailability well described sotorasib PK.
