Since the first accounts of SARS-CoV-2, authorities have encountered numerous unprecedented situations threatening public health. This rapid communication addresses events that led to the quarantining of a hotel in Tenerife, Spain and the effectiveness of the rapidly implemented control measures. In total, eight cases have been associated with the hotel. Due to the international nature of the guests, had these timely precautions not been in place, a multinational cluster might have formed.

Community Care Needs of Highly Complex Chronic Patients: An Epidemiological Study in a Healthcare Area.

Nursing Department, Faculty of Healthcare Sciences, University of La Laguna, 38200 Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Spain.
One of the priorities in family and community care is the epidemiological surveillance of the care needs and dysfunctionality present in populations of highly complex chronic patients (HCCPs) using standardised nursing languages. The aim of this study is to establish the prevalence of care needs and dysfunctionality among HCCPs in a specific health area by municipalities and geographical areas (metropolitan, north, and south) while verifying correlations with sociodemographic, financial, and health characteristics. This is an epidemiological, observational, descriptive, cross-sectional study carried out with a sample of 51,374 HCCPs, whose data were grouped into 31 municipalities.

Department of Hematology, University Hospital Hôtel-Dieu, Nantes, France.
Objective: Providing the most efficacious frontline treatment for newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) is critical for patient outcomes. No direct comparisons have been made between bortezomib + lenalidomide + dexamethasone (VRD) and bortezomib + thalidomide + dexamethasone (VTD) induction regimens in transplant-eligible NDMM.
Methods: An integrated analysis was performed using patient data from four trials meeting prespecified eligibility criteria: two using VRD (PETHEMA GEM2012 and IFM 2009) and two using VTD (PETHEMA GEM2005 and IFM 2013-04).

Article Synopsis
- Nedosiran is an experimental RNA interference treatment aimed at reducing the production of oxalate by inhibiting an enzyme involved in its synthesis, targeting primary hyperoxaluria (PH) patients.
- In a six-month study, participants receiving nedosiran experienced a significant reduction in 24-hour urinary oxalate levels compared to those given a placebo, with half of the nedosiran group achieving normal or near-normal excretion levels.
- The treatment was well tolerated with low rates of mild injection-site reactions, showing promising results in lowering oxalate levels in patients with PH1, while the effects in patients with PH2 were less consistent.
