Purpose: To investigate the safety and effectiveness of radiotherapy for advanced upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) patients intolerant to chemotherapy.
Methods: Data for 21 patients with advanced UTUC intolerant to chemotherapy were retrospectively collected. All patients were treated with conventionally fractionated radiotherapy (50-70 Gy/20-33 f) or partial-SABR boost to the lesions (50-60 Gy/20-25 f with tumor center boosted with 6-8 Gy/f, 3-5 f) for bulky tumors.

Aims: V114, a 15-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV15) currently approved in adults in the US, contains the 13 serotypes in PCV13 and two additional serotypes, 22 F and 33 F, which are important contributors to residual PD. This study quantified the health and economic burden of pediatric invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) associated with V114 serotypes in eight countries in Europe.
Materials And Methods: A Markov model estimated V114-type IPD cases and costs in hypothetical unvaccinated birth cohorts from Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, Norway, Spain, Switzerland, and the UK over 20 years.

Although the incidence of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) and acute otitis media (AOM) in young children has decreased since the introduction of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs), the subsequent emergence of non-vaccine serotypes and the persistence of certain vaccine serotypes both contribute to substantial residual pneumococcal disease. There is a need for the development of new pneumococcal vaccines to address the clinical and economic burden presented by emerging non-vaccine serotypes, while maintaining suppression of serotypes in existing vaccines. To assess the full value of next-generation vaccines, public health evaluations must consider epidemiological and economic data across all vaccine serotypes, including those included in existing vaccines and those unique to the new product.

Acute prolonged sitting leads to cerebrovascular disruptions. However, it is unclear how prolonged sitting interacts with other common behaviors, including high- (HGI) and low-glycemic index (LGI) meals. Using a double-blind randomized cross-over design, this study evaluated the effects of prolonged (3 hr) sitting, with a high- (HGI; GI: 100) or low-glycemic index (LGI; GI: 19) meal on total brain blood flow (Q ) and executive function.
