Background: This analysis explored real-world characteristics, treatment patterns and clinical outcomes in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) previously treated with lenalidomide and an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody (mAb) and requiring subsequent treatment.

Materials And Methods: The PREAMBLE and Connect MM prospective registries of patients with multiple myeloma (MM), and the US nationwide Flatiron Health electronic health record-derived de-identified database were analysed. MM-specific treatment patterns (prior/index therapies) and outcomes (progression-free survival [PFS]/overall survival [OS]) were assessed.

Background: Inspiratory and expiratory muscle training (RMT) has been shown to have beneficial effects in individuals with long-term post-COVID-19 symptoms.

Objective: To assess the effects of adding RMT to an aerobic exercise (AE) training program for health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and exercise tolerance in individuals with long-term post-COVID-19 symptoms, and to evaluate the effects on physical and lung function, and psychological status.

Methods: 64 individuals with long-term post-COVID-19 symptoms of fatigue and dyspnoea were randomly assigned to AE+RMT or AE+RMT groups for an 8-wk intervention (AE: 50min/day, 2 times/wk; RMT: 40min/day, 3 times/wk).

Background: The transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) technique, facilitated by the MitraClip device, is a minimally invasive intervention designed for high-risk patients with mitral regurgitation (MR). This study conducts a retrospective analysis of death events associated with MitraClip implantation over a ten-year decade, utilizing data from the FDA's Manufacturer and User Facility Device Experience (MAUDE) database to evaluate trends in safety outcomes.

Methods: A comprehensive search of the publicly accessible MAUDE database was conducted to retrieve reports of deaths and injuries related to MitraClip implantation from October 2013 to September 2023.

Prognostic significance of three lymph node staging systems in pancreatic cancer with ≤ 12 and > 12 retrieved lymph nodes.

Article Synopsis
  • The study compared the predictive effectiveness of negative lymph nodes (NLN), lymph node ratio (LNR), and N stage in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients based on the number of retrieved lymph nodes.
  • All three nodal staging systems were found to independently predict cancer-specific survival (CSS) and overall survival (OS), with improved survival linked to higher NLN, lower LNR, and lower N stage.
  • LNR outperformed N stage in predicting prognosis, while NLN had limited effectiveness, particularly in predicting survival for patients with stage N0 disease.

Background: The accuracy of recorded diagnosis codes for hospital admissions due to influenza in the Danish national registries is uncertain. We evaluated positive predictive value (PPV) and sensitivity of ICD-10 codes for influenza by comparing to the reference standard of influenza test results.

Methods: Hospital admissions were assessed in the Danish National Patient Registry (DNPR), and influenza test results in the Danish Microbiology Database (MiBa).
