Article Synopsis
- Breast cancer (BC) is a major health concern, especially in women with schizophrenia, who experience higher mortality rates; the project aimed to assess the incidence of BC in this group and compare outcomes based on antipsychotic medication use prior to diagnosis.
- Utilizing the TriNetX database, the study examined data from over 1.3 million women with schizophrenia from 2011 to 2023, finding that breast cancer incidence was consistent over the years but peaked in 2017; non-Hispanic women had higher diagnosis rates compared to Hispanic women.
- Results indicated that women not on antipsychotics prior to BC diagnosis had significantly better 5-year survival rates (72% vs. 60%) and lower risks of local

The Institute of Liver Disease and Transplantation, Dr. Rela Institute and Medical Centre, Bharath Institute of Higher Education and Research, Chennai, India.
Article Synopsis
- New diagnostic criteria have classified small-for-size syndrome (SFSS) after living donor liver transplantation into three severity groups, and this study focuses on grade A SFSS and its mortality risk.
- Data from 406 patients were analyzed, categorizing them into up-trend, down-trend, and ascites groups based on their bilirubin levels and ascites presence after surgery.
- While survival rates were similar for SFSS and non-SFSS patients, those in the up-trend group had significantly higher 90-day mortality and should receive aggressive intervention if they have additional risk factors.
