Aim: To examine the risk of second primary cancer in patients with incident renal cell carcinoma (RCC).
Methods: We identified all patients diagnosed with incident RCC during 1995-2019, using population-based Danish medical registries. Patients were followed from the date of RCC diagnosis until any second primary cancer diagnosis, death, emigration, or December 31, 2019, whichever came first. We computed the absolute risk, standardized incidence ratio (SIR), and excess absolute risk of second primary cancer, with 95% confidence intervals (CIs), among patients with RCC compared to the general population.
Results: The absolute 1- and 20-year risks of any second primary cancer were 2.8% and 17.8%, respectively. Within 1 year after RCC diagnosis, we detected 20 excess cancer cases per 1000 person-years (PY) (SIR, 2.3; 95% CI: 2.1-2.6). Moreover, we detected an additional four excess cancer cases per 1000 PY during 1 to <5 years of follow-up (SIR, 1.3; 95% CI: 1.2-1.4), and 6 per 1000 PY beyond 5 years of follow-up (SIR, 1.4; 95% CI: 1.3-1.5). The sustained elevated cancer risk beyond 1 year of follow-up was mainly attributed to excess risk of lung and bladder cancer. The risk of second primary cancer was higher in 2006-2019 than in 1995-2005, but only during the first year of follow-up.
Conclusion: Patients with incident RCC have a sustained 40% elevated long-term risk of second primary cancer, compared with the general population. This increased risk is mainly attributed to lung and bladder cancer.

Background: Postdischarge contacts (PDCs) after hospitalization are common practice, but their effectiveness in reducing use of acute care after discharge remains unclear.
Purpose: To assess the effects of PDC on 30-day emergency department (ED) visits, 30-day hospital readmissions, and patient satisfaction.
Data Sources: MEDLINE, Embase, and CINAHL searched from 2012 to 25 May 2023.

The dysfunction of stress granules (SGs) plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of various neurological disorders, with T cell intracellular antigen 1 (TIA1) being a key component of SGs. However, the role and mechanism of TIA1-mediated SGs in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) remain unclear. In this study, upregulation of TIA1, its translocation from the nucleus to the cytoplasm, and co-localization with G3BP1 (a marker of SGs) are observed in the spinal cord neurons of EAE mice.

Importance: The impact of adjunctive intra-arterial tenecteplase administration following near-complete to complete reperfusion by endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) for acute ischemic stroke is unknown.
Objective: To assess the efficacy and adverse events of adjunctive intra-arterial tenecteplase in patients with large vessel occlusion stroke who had achieved near-complete to complete reperfusion (defined as a score on the expanded Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction [eTICI] scale of 2c to 3) after EVT.
Design, Setting, And Participants: Investigator-initiated, randomized, open-label, blinded outcome assessment trial implemented at 34 hospitals in China among 540 patients with stroke due to proximal intracranial large vessel occlusion within 24 hours of the time they were last known to be well, with an eTICI score of 2c to 3 after EVT, and without prior intravenous thrombolysis.

Importance: Persisting or new thrombi in the distal arteries and the microcirculation have been reported to limit the benefits of successful endovascular thrombectomy for patients with acute ischemic stroke. It remains uncertain whether intra-arterial thrombolysis by urokinase following near-complete to complete reperfusion by thrombectomy improves outcomes among patients with ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion.
Objective: To assess the efficacy and adverse events of intra-arterial urokinase after near-complete to complete reperfusion by thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion.

Aims: This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of early intensive statin therapy following intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS).
Methods: AIS patients who received IVT and statin therapy were included from multicenter registry databases. The primary endpoint was functional independence, defined by a modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score of 0-2 at 90 days.
