Introduction: We investigated the subsequent trends in age and antithrombotic therapy in patients who underwent transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) and examined the rate of perioperative complications.
Methods: Medical records of patients who underwent TURBT were retrospectively analyzed. We arbitrarily divided the observation years into three periods (I: 2007-2013, II: 2014-2018, and III: 2019-2023) to compare the trends in age and frequency of perioperative complications after TURBT between patients taking and those not taking antithrombotic drugs.
Results: The number of patients who underwent TURBT was 173, 224, and 224 in periods I, II, and III, respectively. The proportion of patients receiving antithrombotic drugs was similar among the three periods (34.1%, 29.9%, and 37.5% in periods I, II, and III, respectively). The percentage of patients taking antithrombotic medications who were aged ≥80 was gradually increasing. The usage of warfarin (25.4%, 13%, and 4.2% in periods I, II, and III, respectively) and aspirin (65.1%, 40.3%, and 32.3% in periods I, II, and III, respectively) was decreased, whereas direct oral anticoagulant (1.6%, 18.2%, and 35.4% in periods I, II, and III, respectively) and clopidogrel (4.8%, 15.6%, and 16.7% in periods I, II, and III, respectively) administrations was increased. The rate of hemorrhagic and cardiocirculatory complications was higher in patients receiving antithrombotic drugs than in patients not receiving them. Of the patients receiving antithrombotic therapy, two patients with a history of cardiac infarction and deep vein thrombosis passed away after TURBT due to ischemic heart disease.
Conclusion: The age of patients receiving antithrombotic drugs has increased, and antithrombotic drug types have changed among those who underwent TURBT. Further attention to hemorrhagic and lethal cardiocirculatory complications after TURBT will be required in a super-aged society.

Climate change heterogeneity: A new quantitative approach.
PLoS One
January 2025
Department of Economics, University Carlos III, Getafe, Spain.
Climate change is a spatial and temporarily non-uniform phenomenon that requires understanding its evolution to better evaluate its potential societal and economic impact. The value added of this paper lies in introducing a quantitative methodology grounded in the trend analysis of temperature distribution quantiles to analyze climate change heterogeneity (CCH). By converting these quantiles into time series objects, the methodology empowers the definition and measurement of various relevant concepts in climate change analysis (warming, warming typology, warming amplification and warming acceleration) in a straightforward and robust testable linear regression format.

Lanping black-boned (LPBB) sheep are a unique and rare ruminant species, characterized by black pigmentation in the skin and internal organs. Thus far, LPBB are the only known animal with heritable melanin characteristics besides the black-boned chicken, and the only mammal known to contain a large amount of melanin in the body. LPBB have therefore attracted substantial research attention, due to their potential contribution to medicine.

Assessing Preferences of Patients with Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria for Injectable Treatment Profiles.
Patient
January 2025
Division of Rheumatology, Allergy and Immunology, Department of Medicine, University of Cincinnati College of Medicine, Cincinnati, OH, USA.
Background: In the context of injectable biologic products approved or in development for chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU), it is important to capture which treatment attributes matter most to patient and what trade-offs patients are willing to make.
Objectives: The CHOICE-CSU study aimed to quantify patient preferences toward injectable treatment attributes among patients with CSU, inadequately controlled by H1-antihistamines.
Methods: This was a two-phase cross-sectional patient preference study in adult patients with a diagnosis of CSU, inadequately controlled by H1-antihistamines.

Fostamatinib had superior efficacy to a placebo and acceptable safety profiles for at least 1 year in a phase 3 study of Japanese patients with primary immune thrombocytopenia. Here, we report the 3-year safety and efficacy of fostamatinib in that study. Data from 33 patients who received at least one dose of fostamatinib were analyzed.
