Dengue virus (DENV) is a rapidly expanding infectious disease threat that causes an estimated 100 million symptomatic infections every year. A barrier to preventing DENV infections with traditional vaccines or prophylactic monoclonal antibody (mAb) therapies is the phenomenon of Antibody-Dependent Enhancement (ADE), wherein sub-neutralizing levels of DENV-specific IgG antibodies can enhance infection and pathogenesis rather than providing protection from disease. Fortunately, IgG is not the only antibody isotype capable of binding and neutralizing DENV, as DENV-specific IgA1 isotype mAbs can bind and neutralize DENV while without exhibiting any ADE activity.

The multitarget oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor sorafenib is an effective first-line treatment option in unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma. Through its mechanism of action, it has been associated with cardiotoxicity, mainly hypertension, which is usually low-grade and well-managed with behavioral changes and antihypertensor treatment adjustment, if needed. Acute, symptomatic heart failure is rarely described.

The unilateral biportal endoscopic technique is effective for treating single-segment degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis and is seen as a viable alternative to traditional open lumbar laminectomy. However, research on the application of this technique for multilevel lumbar spinal stenosis remains lacking.

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer in the United Kingdom and the second largest cause of cancer death.
Aim: To develop and validate a model using available information at the time of faecal immunochemical testing (FIT) in primary care to improve selection of symptomatic patients for CRC investigations.
Methods: We included all adults (≥ 18 years) referred to Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust between 2018 and 2022 with symptoms of suspected CRC who had a FIT.
