Risankizumab is a selective, humanized immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1) monoclonal anti-body directed against interleukin (IL)-23 protein. The therapeutic indication of risankizumab is moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. The safety profile of risankizumab is currently defined by data obtained with clinical trials used for the authorization of entry into the market. The aim of this study was to expand information on the safety of risankizumab through a descriptive post-marketing analysis of real-world data regarding serious adverse reactions (SARs) to risankizumab found in the EudraVigilance database. The EudraVigilance database system, containing SARs linked to drugs not yet licensed for the market in the European Union (EU), was used. In EudraVigilance, SARs are described in single individual cases safety reports (ICSRs). More frequently reported serious SARs to risankizumab are associated with, in descending order, infections, cancer, nervous system disorders, cardiac disorders, abnormal laboratory results, pulmonary disorders, conditions aggravated, and skin disorders. Despite the classical limitations of this post-marketing study (lack of denominator, no certainty of causal relationship between the drug and the adverse reaction), analysis of real-world data related to SARs to risankizumab confirms the known safety profile of the drug but, at the same time, stimulates to further go into detail about the occurrence as adverse reactions of malignancies and their sex distribution.

Background: Early diagnosis of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is crucial for timely intervention to delay disease progression and improve patient outcomes. However, data for clinical characteristics of Chinese patients with undiagnosed, early-stage CKD are lacking.
Methods: REVEAL-CKD is a multinational, observational study using real-world data in selected countries to describe factors associated with undiagnosed stage 3 CKD, time to diagnosis, and CKD management post diagnosis.
A reproducible framework for monitoring the impact of randomized clinical trials on clinical practice using large-scale real-world data: application to gynaecological surgical trials using the French national healthcare database.

Background: Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) are fundamental to evidence-based medicine, but their real-world impact on clinical practice often remains unmonitored. Leveraging large-scale real-world data can enable systematic monitoring of RCT effects. We aimed to develop a reproducible framework using real-world data to assess how major RCTs influence medical practice, using two pivotal surgical RCTs in gynaecologic oncology as an example-the LACC (Laparoscopic Approach to Cervical Cancer) and LION (Lymphadenectomy in Ovarian Neoplasms) trials.

Background: A significant number of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) on direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) receives off-label or inappropriate doses. This study examines the prevalence, dosages, and clinical outcomes in AF-patients on DOAC therapy admitted to an emergency department (ED).
Methods: This retrospective single-center observational study utilized data from the Heidelberg Registry of Atrial Fibrillation (HERA-FIB), consecutively including patients with AF presenting to the ED of the University Hospital of Heidelberg from June 2009 to March 2020.

Healthcare Resource Utilization Among Patients With Generalized Pustular Psoriasis: The Impact of Flares and Disease Severity.
J Psoriasis Psoriatic Arthritis
January 2025
Department of Dermatology, University of Utah School of Medicine, Salt Lake City, UT, USA.
Background: Generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) is a rare, chronic, often unpredictable, severe multisystemic autoinflammatory skin disease from which patients can experience flares, episodes of widespread eruptions of painful, sterile pustules often accompanied by systemic symptoms. The impact of GPP flares and underlying GPP severity on the healthcare resource utilization (HCRU) is not well characterized.
Objective: To quantify HCRU among US GPP patients by flare status and underlying severity.
