Projections of Public Spending on Pharmaceuticals: A Review of Methods.
Pharmacoeconomics
January 2025
Belgian Health Care Knowledge Centre, Brussels, Belgium.
Background: Forecasting future public pharmaceutical expenditure is a challenge for healthcare payers, particularly owing to the unpredictability of new market introductions and their economic impact. No best-practice forecasting methods have been established so far. The literature distinguishes between the top-down approach, based on historical trends, and the bottom-up approach, using a combination of historical and horizon scanning data.

January 2025
Department of Radiology, Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP), Rua Dr. Ovidio Pires de Campos, 75, Cerqueira César, São Paulo, SP, 05403-010, Brazil.
Purpose: To evaluate the feasibility, safety, and short-term (3-month) results of transperineal prostate thermal ablation (TPTA) as a minimally invasive outpatient treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
Materials And Methods: A prospective nonrandomized study of 25 patients with lower urinary tract symptoms secondary to BPH seeking care at 2 interventional radiology centers between March and July 2024. TPTA was performed using a 17G radiofrequency needle with a 10-mm active tip under unconscious sedation combined with bilateral perineal and periprostatic nerve blocks.

Dental public health, Institute of Science Tokyo Graduate School of Medical and Dental Sciences, 1-5-45 yushima, bunnkyo-ku, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo, 113-8510, JAPAN.
Halitosis presents a significant global health concern, necessitating the development of precise and efficient testing methodologies owing to the high prevalence and the associated social and psychological effects. The measurement of volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs), recognized as primary contributors to halitosis, is particularly significant. While gas chromatography (GC-MS) offers accurate measurements, its bulky and expensive nature limits widespread accessibility.

Department of Urology, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, New York, NY, USA.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia is a prevalent condition leading to male lower urinary tract symptoms (mLUTS), particularly in aging populations. Current management strategies-spanning watchful waiting, pharmaceutical therapy, and surgical interventions such as transurethral resection of the prostate-face significant limitations, including side effects, low adherence, and patient hesitancy toward invasive treatments. First-line interventional therapy (FIT) emerges as a novel paradigm bridging the gap between medications and surgery.
