Individuals with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and dementia are at greater risk for mental health conditions including depression and anxiety than those without cognitive impairments. Non-pharmacological interventions are considered first-line to address these problems, but access to psychotherapy services for these groups remains limited. Adapted evidence-based therapy approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) are effective for treating comorbid mental health conditions in populations with cognitive impairments.

The positive feedback loop between SP1 and MAP2K2 significantly drives resistance to VEGFR inhibitors in clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is one of the most common and aggressive malignancies of the urinary system. Despite being the first-line treatment for advanced ccRCC, vascular endothelial growth factor receptor inhibitors (VEGFRis) face significant limitations due to both initial and acquired resistance, which impede complete tumor eradication. Using a CRISPR/Cas9 library screening approach, was identified as a resistance-associated gene for three prevalent VEGFRis (Sunitinib, Axitinib, and Sorafenib).

The prevailing belief is that third-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) targeting the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) (TGET) outperform first-generation EGFR-TKIs (FGET) in managing advanced-stage EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, this standpoint lacks substantiation in evidence-based medicine. Therefore, this meta-analysis was conducted to compare the efficacy and adverse effects (AEs) of these two categories.
