Department of Neurosurgery, Philipps University of Marburg, Baldingerstraße, 35033 Marburg, Germany; Center for Mind, Brain and Behavior (CMBB), 35043 Marburg, Germany.
Background: X-ray, computed tomography (CT), and digital subtraction angiography (DSA) techniques are indispensable in managing critically ill neurosurgical patients. However, repeated diagnostic imaging leads to cumulative radiation exposure, raising concerns about long-term risks such as malignancies. This study evaluates the frequency, dosage, and implications of radiation exposure in a neurosurgical intensive care unit (NICU) patient cohort.

Background: In the phase 3 ORIENT-11 study, sintilimab plus pemetrexed-platinum provided statistically significant longer overall survival and progression-free survival versus placebo plus pemetrexed-platinum as first-line treatment in patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Here, we report the patient-reported outcomes (PRO) analysis findings in ORIENT-11.
Methods: PROs were measured using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life of Cancer Patients Questionnaire Core 30 items (EORTC QLQ-C30) and the Lung Cancer Symptom Scale (LCSS) questionnaire.
The gender wage gap across life: Effects of genetic predisposition towards higher educational attainment.
Econ Hum Biol
January 2025
Social Research Institute, University College London, UK.
Using two polygenic scores (PGS) for educational attainment in a biomedical study of all those born in a single week in Great Britain in 1958 we show that the genetic predisposition for educational attainment is associated with labour market participation and wages over the life-course for men and women. Those with a higher PGS spend more time in employment and full-time employment and, when in employment, earn higher hourly wages. The employment associations are four times larger for women than for men.
