Objective: The symptom burden associated with allergic rhinitis (AR) negatively impacts the life of people living with the condition. Although the impact of AR on educational outcomes and the effect of AR-relieving medication have been investigated, the availability of up-to-date, population-based, real-world evidence is limited. Therefore, the aim was to investigate the impact of AR and AR-relieving medication on educational outcomes.
Methods: A register-based study was conducted using Danish registers. Educational outcomes were defined as the average 9th-grade final grade. Individuals diagnosed with AR before the age of 13, born between 1986 and 2006, and with observed final examination grades were included as cases. To investigate the impact of AR-relieving medication, cases were stratified by medication use. The impact of AR was estimated through a comparison of individuals with AR to their sibling with no history of AR.
Results: 52,808 cases were included (33,035 with siblings). Cases with no filled prescriptions of AR-relieving medication in their final examination year had an average grade of 7.09. Cases with a minimum of one collection had a higher average. Cases initiated on AIT had an average test score that was 0.60 points higher than cases with no filled prescriptions of aH or INCs in the final examination year. The average grade among cases with paired siblings was 7.29 whilst their siblings had an average grade that was -0.04 lower.
Conclusion: In the Danish context, AR does not affect educational outcomes; however, more frequent use of AR-relieving medications is associated with better educational outcomes.

Background: As the population ages, the number of octogenarians with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) continues to rise. Morbidity and mortality following pancreatectomy have improved owing to safer surgery and better chemoradiation regimens. This study compares the outcomes and multimodality utilization in octogenarians (≥80 years) who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) for PDAC, with a younger cohort.

Patients with intracranial aneurysms (IA) undergoing endovascular treatment face varying risks and benefits when tirofiban is used for thromboprophylaxis during surgery. Currently, there is a lack of high-level evidence summarizing this information. This study aims to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tirofiban during endovascular treatment of IA.

The ecological niche separation of microbial interactions in forest ecosystems is critical to maintaining ecological balance and biodiversity and has yet to be comprehensively explored in microbial ecology. This study investigated the impacts of soil properties on microbial interactions and carbon metabolism potential in forest soils across 67 sites in China. Using redundancy analysis and random forest models, we identified soil pH and dissolved organic matter (DOM) aromaticity as the primary drivers of microbial interactions, representing abiotic conditions and resource niches, respectively.

Considering the potential detrimental impact of poverty on psychological development and the resulting harmful cycles, implementing poverty alleviation interventions is necessary for children and adolescents. Although several meta-analyses have demonstrated the effectiveness of monetary poverty reduction programs, there remains a significant gap in understanding how multidimensional poverty reduction strategies boost psychological development. This meta-analysis aims to address this gap by disclosing the impact of multifaceted anti-poverty interventions on the psychological development of children and adolescents.

In patients with disorders of gut-brain interaction (DGBI), overlapping non-gastrointestinal conditions such as fibromyalgia, headaches, gynaecological and urological conditions, sleep disturbances and fatigue are common, as is overlap among DGBI in different regions of the gastrointestinal tract. These overlaps strongly influence patient management and outcome. Shared pathophysiology could explain this scenario, but details are not fully understood.
