Current guidelines recommend that physicians use a shared decision-making (SDM) approach to engage with patients on the potential benefits and harms of prostate cancer screening based on their individual risk. In a sample of 4,118 men aged 55-69 from the 2018 New York State Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance Survey (BRFSS), we compared the frequency of screening recommendations and SDM conversations according to four race/ethnic groups. In logistic regression, we evaluated the likelihood of SDM conversations between race/ethnic groups. Our findings suggest that the odds of never having a SDM conversation with their healthcare provider were significantly higher among Hispanic men (OR 95% CI: 2.10, 1.11-3.99) and other/multiracial men (OR, 95% CI: 3.08, 1.46-6.52) compared to white men, while black men had comparable odds (1.52, 0.98-2.34). The lower frequency of SDM conversation among Hispanic and other/multiracial men suggest a missed opportunity for healthcare providers to guide informed screening decisions.

There should be no assumption that an athlete is immune to coronary artery disease (CAD), even when traditional cardiovascular (CV) risk factors appear well-managed. Excelling in certain aspects of health does not equate to total CV protection. Recent data from cardiac imaging studies have raised the possibility that long-term, high-volume, high-intensity endurance exercise is associated with coronary atherosclerosis.

Background: Patients with congenital heart defects (CHDs) are at higher risk for infectious diseases. This may partly be due to frequent hospital stays and the associated exposure to pathogens. This study aims to provide a comprehensive overview of immunisation coverage among twins in which at least one twin has CHD.

Aims: There is a lack of studies on the impact of diabetes risk scores on diabetes prevention. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of applying a non-invasive diabetes risk score as component of routine health checks on counselling intensity and shared decision-making (SDM) in primary care.
Methods: Cluster randomised trial, in which primary care physicians (n = 30) enrolled participants (n = 315) with statutory health insurance without known diabetes, ≥ 35 years of age with a body mass index (BMI) ≥ 27.
Advanced-stage duodenal cancer in pregnancy.
BMJ Case Rep
January 2025
Maternal Fetal Medicine, University of Louisville Hospital, Louisville, Kentucky, USA.
This is a case report of a pregnant patient diagnosed with advanced-stage duodenal cancer in the second trimester. To the author's knowledge, there are no studies that describe the management of advanced duodenal cancer during pregnancy and this case highlights the importance of creating a multidisciplinary team and incorporating shared decision-making when discussing diagnostic workup and treatment options, including the use of cytotoxic therapy during pregnancy, with patients. This study will also discuss maternal and fetal outcomes after the administration of FOLFOX (leucovorin, fluorouracil and oxaliplatin) chemotherapy during the second trimester.
