Aim: To assess the prognostic effect of pan-immune inflammation value (PIV) in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) treated with abiraterone acetate (AA) or enzalutamide.
Methods: Patients with mCRPC treated with AA or enzalutamide between January 2010 and June 2021 were included in this study. The most recently examined complete blood count values in the 1-month period before treatment were used for calculating PIV. The relationship between overall survival (OS) and PIV was evaluated by multivariate analysis. By using PIV and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels which had shown survival effect at multivariate analysis, PIV-LDH combined score was established.
Results: A total of 114 patients were included in this study. At the median follow-up of 34.6 months (95% confidence interval [CI]: 32.4-36.8), the median OS was 21 months (95% CI: 17.6-21.3). The median OS in the low-PIV group was significantly higher than in the high-PIV group (34.4 months (95% CI: 21.3-47.5) vs. 14.3 months (95% CI: 10.0-18.7), p < 0.001). In the multivariate analysis for OS, high PIV (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.86, 95% CI: 1.11-3.13, p = 0.018) and LDH value 1.5 times the upper limit of normal and above (HR: 3.65 95%, CI: 1.86-7.16, p < 0.001) were associated with shorter OS. When survival analysis was performed according to the PIV-LDH combined score, the median OS was 34.4 months (95% CI: 22.2-46.6) in the low-risk group, 17.7 months (95% CI: 11.7-23.6) in the intermediate-risk group, and 8.4 months (95% CI: 5.1-11.7) in the high-risk group (p < 0.001). The C-index of the combined PIV-LDH score was higher than the C-index of PIV (0.65 vs. 0.61).
Conclusion: In this study, we demonstrated that PIV was an independent prognostic factor for OS in patients with mCRPC treated with AA or enzalutamide. Additionally, PIV-LDH combined score may be considered a promising composite peripheral blood-based biomarker to predict OS in those patients.

Background: Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are the leading cause of death globally, and many humanitarian crises occur in countries with high NCD burdens. Peer support is a promising approach to improve NCD care in these settings. However, evidence on peer support for people living with NCDs in humanitarian settings is limited.

Background: No study has assessed the impact of flavor capsule cigarettes (FCCs) on smoking cessation. Thus, the purpose of this exploratory study was to assess (1) the sociodemographic and smoking-related characteristics associated with using FCCs, and (2) the preliminary impact of FCCs on smoking cessation.
Methods: This study is a secondary data analysis of a single-arm study with 100 individuals living in Mexico who smoked and received a smoking cessation mHealth intervention and pharmacotherapy support.

Background: Triglyceride-glucose-BMI (TyG-BMI) index is a surrogate marker of insulin resistance and an important predictor of cardiovascular disease. However, the predictive value of TyG-BMI index in the progression of non-severe aortic stenosis (AS) is still unclear.
Methods: The present retrospective observational study was conducted using patient data from Aortic valve diseases RISk facTOr assessmenT andprognosis modeL construction (ARISTOTLE).

Background: The triglyceride‒glucose index (TyG index) is a reliable surrogate for insulin resistance (IR) in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus and is associated with cardiovascular disease. Recent studies have reported that H-type hypertension is likewise a predictor of adverse events in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). However, the relationship between the TyG index and prognosis in patients with H-type hypertension combined with CHD has not yet been reported.
