Ultrasonography (USG)-guided interventions have transformed pain medicine by enhancing precision, efficacy, and safety through real-time anatomical visualization. Despite these advantages, mastering USG techniques presents a steep learning curve, especially for practitioners transitioning from fluoroscopy-guided methods. Adapting the Transtheoretical Model of Behavior Change, this commentary outlines a five-phase framework for transitioning to USG-guided pain medicine interventions: overcoming initial reluctance, addressing sonoanatomy challenges, improving probe stabilization, needle visualization, and achieving expertise.

The current body of evidence from both preclinical and epidemiologic studies suggests that cumulative stress may play a role in carcinogenesis; however, few studies on human populations have examined allostatic load (AL) as it relates to cancer risk, progression, and mortality. In this commentary, we discuss the use and value of AL as a measure to assess exposure to stress for cancer epidemiologic studies, describe the existing evidence between AL and sources of cancer-related environmental stressors, and summarize the existing epidemiologic studies on AL and cancer risk, progression, and mortality. We also outline several knowledge gaps and what steps should be considered to advance research on the role of AL and cancer risk, progression, and mortality in human populations.

The inclusion of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) impacts on informal carers in health technology assessments (HTAs) is lacking due, primarily, to a deficiency in evidence and methodological issues on how informal carer HRQoL is captured and incorporated into economic models. These issues are magnified in areas of significant burden, such as caring for children and adolescents with rare, progressive, life-limiting conditions. In this commentary we outline key challenges in measuring, and incorporating in HTA submissions, informal carer HRQoL data in rare, progressive, paediatric, life-limiting conditions and identify future research priorities in this space.

Yao and Ma (2023) recently reviewed and reanalyzed 31 studies published in top-tier journals utilizing polynomial regression and response surface methods. Their work offers a useful holistic framework for how to test and categorize various forms of congruence; however, they ultimately advance cautionary conclusions about the extent to which 28 of the 31 studies provide "evidence of congruence" and call into question whether the practical implications of these studies are valid (p. 446).
