Based on critical discourse analysis of Canada's Muskoka Initiative (2010-15), this article outlines how medicalisation contributes to the depoliticisation and technocratisation of global maternal health, while reinforcing patterns of reproductive stratification. By constructing maternal health as a problem of managing medicalised risk, the Muskoka Initiative was able to position family planning as a risk-minimising practice that can improve health by averting pregnancy among populations deemed high risk. Interpreting this construction through the lenses of reproductive justice and biopolitics, I argue that this construction contributes to reproductive stratification and exemplifies how medicalised discourses have replaced overt discourses of population control within development policy, while continuing to discourage reproduction among racialised women in the Global South.

Background: Management of the extensive soft tissue injuries remains a significant challenge in orthopedic and plastic reconstructive surgery. Since the thumb is responsible for 40% of the functions of the hand, saving and reconstructing a mangled thumb is essential for the patient's future.
Case Presentation: This case report describes the management of a severe occupational thumb injury in a 25-year-old white Persian male who sustained an occupational injury to his left thumb, resulting in extensive burn, crush injury to the distal and proximal phalanx, and severe soft tissue damage to the first metacarpal, thenar, and palmar areas.
Association of single nucleotide polymorphisms rs7459185 of the HSPβ1 gene and the risk of hematological toxicity in lung cancer.
Lung Cancer
January 2025
Department of Radiation Oncology, Instituto de Biomedicina de Sevilla-University Hospital Virgen del Rocio (IBIS/HUVR/CSIC/Universidad de Sevilla), Seville, Spain.
Purpose: Hematological toxicities (HTs) in lung cancer (LCa) may compromise the delivery of Radio-Chemotherapy (RTCT), and consequently affect the control of the disease. The aim of this study is to evaluate the association of Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with HT.
Material/methods: In this prospective multicentre study, 264 patients with primary LCa treated with RTCT between 2012 and 2018 were included.
Residual Traditional Risk in Non-Traditional Atherosclerotic Diseases.

Individuals with chronic inflammatory and immune disorders are at an increased risk of atherosclerotic events and premature cardiovascular (CV) disease. Despite extensive literature exploring the relationship between "non-traditional" atherosclerotic conditions and CV risk, many aspects remain unresolved, including the underlying mechanisms promoting the "non-traditional CV risk", the development of an innovative and comprehensive CV risk assessment tool, and recommendations for tailored interventions. This review aims to evaluate the available evidence on key "non-traditional" CV risk-enhancer conditions, with a focus on assessing and managing CV risk factors.

Aim: To investigate the association between Systematic Coronary Risk Evaluation 2 (SCORE2) and subclinical damage in two vascular beds: atherosclerosis in the coronary arteries and aortic arterial stiffness, in a large population-based cohort without cardiovascular disease or diabetes.
Methods: A cross-sectional study based on Swedish CArdio Pulmonary bioImaging Study (SCAPIS) data. A population-based cohort of 3087 participants aged 50-64.
