Standard criteria for ideal patient selection with food oral immunotherapy (OIT) have yet to be determined. Although there are a handful of contraindications to consider before recommending OIT, most patients with confirmed immunoglobulin E-mediated food allergies are appropriate candidates. Success rates of OIT can vary widely and be influenced by several factors. Choosing the most appropriate candidate for an OIT program can mitigate risks and provide the best chance for patients to be successful.

Repurposing radiosensitising medicines for radiotherapy: an overview.
BMJ Oncol

Department of Oncology, University of Oxford, Oxford, UK.
Repurposing established non-cancer drugs for the treatment of cancer offers potential benefits such as speed of clinical translation and financial efficiencies. In this study, we assess the landscape of repurposing drugs for combined use with radiotherapy (RT) based on their capacity to increase tumour radiosensitivity. Using a literature-based approach, we identified 42 radiosensitising drugs with varied non-cancer indications and mechanisms of action, that have entered or completed clinical trials in combination with RT or with chemoradiotherapy.

This case presents a patient who experienced hypoxia and hypotension following the infusion of industrial-grade anhydrous ethanol into the vein of Marshall (VOM) during atrial fibrillation radiofrequency ablation. The hypotension lasted for at least three days, requiring dopamine support, while hypoxia persisted for over a week. The prolonged nature of these symptoms posed a diagnostic challenge.

Purpose: With life expectancies increasing worldwide, there is a concomitant rise in the incidence of fragility fractures. As such, low-income and lower-middle-income countries (LICs and LMICs) will be faced with increased incidences of hip fractures. The care of these fractures is adversely affected by various factors that include under-resourced healthcare systems and large socioeconomic disparities, which disproportionately affect patient care in these regions relative to high-income countries.

People of low socioeconomic status (SES) are often underrepresented in biomedical research. The importance of demographically diverse research samples is widely recognized, especially given socioeconomic disparities in health, but have been challenging to achieve. One barrier to research participation by low SES individuals is their distance from research centers and the difficulty of traveling.

MEDICAL COLLEGE OF WISCONSIN, MILWAUKEE, MILWAUKEE, WI, USA.
The introduction of portable MRI (pMRI) has the potential to directly impact dementia research and ultimately clinical care. In this paper, we explore two ethical challenges facing the introduction of pMRI in dementia research. The first is the need to ensure that pMRI enhances rather than undermines efforts aimed at improving ethnoracial representation in dementia research.
