Health professionals seeking religious exemption from caring for some patients or providing some interventions receive robust legal protection. Similarly, religiously affiliated organizations have great latitude in deciding which services to offer. These protections could soon become stronger, as the US Supreme Court considers 2 cases that revisit constraints on exemption claims established in (1990). This article contends that overturning this case's precedent might result in clinicians claiming more religious exemptions, which, barring acts of US Congress, would erode the rule of law and increase risk of harm to patients.

Neuroendocrine prostate cancer drivers SOX2 and BRN2 confer differential responses to imipridones ONC201, ONC206, and ONC212 in prostate cancer cell lines.
Am J Transl Res
December 2024
Laboratory of Translational Oncology and Experimental Cancer Therapeutics, The Warren Alpert Medical School, Brown University Providence, RI 02903, USA.
Objectives: Prostate cancer (PCa) is a leading cause of cancer death in men worldwide. Approximately 30% of castrate-resistant PCa becomes refractory to therapy due to neuroendocrine differentiation (NED) that is present in <1% of de-novo tumors. First-in-class imipridone ONC201/TIC10 therapy has shown clinical activity against midline gliomas, neuroendocrine tumors, and PCa.

Sleep Breath
January 2025
Department of Health Research Methods, Evidence and Impact (HEI), McMaster University, Hamilton, ON, Canada.
Purpose: A high proportion of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) remains undiagnosed. The main objectives of this study were to measure the prevalence of diagnosed OSA and determine OSA predictors in patients who underwent bariatric surgery, who are predominantly female and pre-menopausal and represent an understudied population in OSA literature.
Methods: This was a cross-sectional population-based study using the Ontario Bariatric Registry (OBR) from 2010 to 2016, linked to ICES databases which include health administrative data on all encounters within a single public-payer system.
Finerenone and new-onset diabetes in heart failure: a prespecified analysis of the FINEARTS-HF trial.
Lancet Diabetes Endocrinol
January 2025
British Heart Foundation Cardiovascular Research Centre, University of Glasgow, Glasgow, UK. Electronic address:
Background: Data on the effect of mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist therapy on HbA levels and new-onset diabetes are conflicting. We aimed to examine the effect of oral finerenone, compared with placebo, on incident diabetes in the Finerenone Trial to Investigate Efficacy and Safety Superior to Placebo in Patients with Heart Failure (FINEARTS-HF) trial.
Methods: In this randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, 6001 participants with heart failure with New York Heart Association functional class II-IV, left ventricular ejection fraction 40% or higher, evidence of structural heart disease, and elevated N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide levels were randomly assigned to finerenone or placebo, administered orally.
Organization of the chromosomal passenger complex clusters at inner centromeres in mitosis.
Curr Opin Cell Biol
January 2025
Division of Experimental Pathology, Cancer Institute of the Japanese Foundation for Cancer Research (JFCR), Tokyo, Japan; Department of JFCR Cancer Biology, Institute of Science Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan. Electronic address:
Stable transmission of the genome during cell division is crucial for all life forms and is universally achieved by Aurora B-mediated error correction of the kinetochore-microtubule attachments. Aurora B is the enzymatic subunit of the tetrameric protein complex called the chromosomal passenger complex (CPC), and its centromeric enrichment is required for Aurora B to ensure accurate chromosome segregation. How cells enrich the CPC at centromeres is therefore an outstanding question to be elucidated.
