Background: People who inject drugs (PWID) are especially vulnerable to harms from opioid use disorder (OUD). Medications for OUD (MOUD) effectively reduce overdose and infectious disease transmission risks.
Objective: We investigate whether state Medicaid coverage for methadone and buprenorphine is related to past-year MOUD use among PWID using cross-sectional, multilevel analyses with individual-level data on PWID from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's 2018 National HIV Behavioral Surveillance.

Background: Prostate cancer is the most common diagnosed tumor and the fifth cancer related death among men in Europe. Although several genetic alterations such as ERG-TMPRSS2 fusion, MYC amplification, PTEN deletion and mutations in p53 and BRCA2 genes play a key role in the pathogenesis of prostate cancer, specific gene alteration signature that could distinguish indolent from aggressive prostate cancer or may aid in patient stratification for prognosis and/or clinical management of patients with prostate cancer is still missing. Therefore, here, by a multi-omics approach we describe a prostate cancer carrying the fusion of TMPRSS2 with ERG gene and deletion of 16q chromosome arm.

A high-fat diet and physical inactivity are key contributors to obesity, predisposing individuals to various chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes, which involve multiple organs and tissues. To better understand the role of multi-organ interaction mechanisms in the rising incidence of obesity and its associated chronic conditions, treatment and prevention strategies are being extensively investigated. This review examines the signaling mechanisms between different tissues and organs, with a particular focus on the crosstalk between adipose tissue and the muscle, brain, liver, and heart, and potentially offers new strategies for the treatment and management of obesity and its complications.
