Purpose: To describe the incidences of hypogonadism, hypertension, and dyslipidaemia in patients with stage 1 seminoma (S1S) testicular cancer (TC) treated with a risk-adapted strategy.
Methods: A retrospective analysis from 2000 to 2020 was conducted. Active surveillance (AS), carboplatin one cycle, and carboplatin two cycles were offered according to risk factors. Cumulative incidences and relapse-free survival (RFS) were estimated.
Results: Of the 145 patients, 8 (5.4%) were excluded due to bilateral TC or hypogonadism at diagnosis. Median follow-up time was 8.2 years. Eighty-four, 30, and 33 patients were treated with AS, carboplatin one cycle, and carboplatin two cycles, respectively. In the overall population, the 5-year and 10-year cumulative incidences were 1.6% and 5.3% for hypogonadism; 2.0% and 8.6% for hypertension; and 12.4% and 25.1% for dyslipidaemia. No statistically significant differences were found in the incidences among the three adjuvant strategies. Five-year and 10-year RFS were 85.9% and 83.3% for AS; 92.4% and 84.0% for carboplatin one cycle; and 96.7% at both times for carboplatin two cycles.
Conclusion: There were no statistically differences in cumulative incidences of hypogonadism, hypertension, and dyslipidaemia in S1S patients treated with a risk-adapted strategy.

Intrinsic and Extrinsic Photogalvanic Effects in Twisted Bilayer Graphene.
Phys Rev Lett

The chiral lattice structure of twisted bilayer graphene with D_{6} symmetry allows for intrinsic photogalvanic effects only at off-normal incidence, while additional extrinsic effects are known to be induced by a substrate or a gate potential. In this Letter, we first compute the intrinsic effects and show they reverse sign at the magic angle, revealing a band inversion at the Γ point. We next consider different extrinsic effects, showing how they can be used to track the strengths of the substrate coupling or electric displacement field.

Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication in hospitalized older patients, associated with increased morbidity, mortality, and health care costs. Major adverse kidney events within 30 days (MAKE30), a composite of death, new renal replacement therapy, or persistent renal dysfunction, has been recommended as a patient-centered endpoint for clinical trials involving AKI.
Objective: This study aimed to develop and validate a machine learning-based model to predict MAKE30 in hospitalized older patients with AKI.

The great advances in diagnostic and therapeutic skills of most sectors of medicine and dentistry have led to an increasingly greater demand from patients for accuracy, attention and diligence by healthcare workers. Dentistry is one of the branches most frequently involved in claims for damages from malpractice, especially in those sectors that are particularly costly and of significant aesthetic value. Aim of the study was to compare data of malpractice claims with those of other Authors to identify similarities and/or differences in the results and to increase epidemiological knowledge in the area of dental malpractice.

Chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection can significantly increase the incidence of cirrhosis and liver cancer, and there is no curative treatment. The persistence of HBV covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA) is the major obstacle of antiviral treatments. cccDNA is formed through repairing viral partially double-stranded relaxed circular DNA (rcDNA) by varies host factors.

Background And Objectives: Levels of activated complement proteins in the CSF are increased in people with multiple sclerosis (MS) and are associated with clinical disease severity. In this study, we determined whether complement activation profiles track with quantitative MRI metrics and liquid biomarkers indicative of disease activity and progression.
Methods: Complement components and activation products (Factor H and I, C1q, C3, C4, C5, Ba, Bb, C3a, C4a, C5a, and sC5b-9) and liquid biomarkers (neurofilament light chain, glial fibrillary acidic protein [GFAP], CXCL-13, CXCL-9, and IL-12b) were quantified in the CSF of 112 patients with clinically isolated syndromes and 127 patients with MS; longitudinal MRIs according to a standardized protocol of the Swiss MS cohort were assessed.
