Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a rare skin cancer that mainly affects the elderly, and whose incidence is increasing. Although the exact origin of this cancer remains uncertain, research in recent years has revealed that MCC develops through two oncogenesis pathways: virally induced by the Merkel polyomavirus (80% of cases) and induced by mutations linked to ultraviolet rays (20% of cases). MCC is an aggressive cancer, with a high mortality rate and limited therapeutic options in advanced stage.

Institute of Health Informatics Research, University College London, London, UK.
Aims: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a frequent comorbidity in heart failure (HF). We analysed factors associated with new-onset atrial fibrillation in patients with heart failure using linked real-world UK data from primary and secondary care, along with findings from genome-wide association studies.
Methods And Results: Among 163 174 participants with a diagnosis of HF (January 1998 to May 2016) from Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD) and Hospital Episodes Statistics (HES), 111 595 participants had no previous history of AF (mean age 76.
Apolipoprotein C-III inhibitors for the treatment of hypertriglyceridemia: A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
Metabolism
March 2025
Department of Cardiology, Federal University of Paraná, Brazil.
Introduction: Hypertriglyceridemia is related to atherosclerotic cardiovascular risk and pancreatitis risk. The efficacy and safety of apolipoprotein C-III (APOC-III) inhibitors remains unclear.
Aim: To investigate the effects of APOC-III inhibitors on hypertriglyceridemia and its complications.
Stereotactic body radiotherapy combined with immunotherapy or targeted therapy: a screenshot from Italy on behalf of the Italian Association of Clinical Oncology and Radiotherapy (AIRO).
Radiol Med
March 2025
Radiotherapy and Radiosurgery Department, IRCCS Humanitas Research Hospital, Rozzano, Milan, Italy.
Aim: Despite the widespread use of immunotherapy (IO) and targeted therapy (TT) in clinical practice, data on toxicity in combination with SBRT are lacking, largely based on retrospective studies and case reports. The present survey, conducted within the AIRO Oligometastatic Study Group, was developed for radiation oncologists to investigate the current clinical practice in Italy regarding hypofractionated SBRT (defined as a dose/fraction ≥ 5 Gy) in cancer patients using IO and TT.
Methods: The online survey, composed of 19 questions, was developed using the cloud-based platform SurveyMonkey® and was sent to all registered AIRO members using the association's mailing list and was administered online and in anonymous form.
Th17 Response in Uveitis: A Double-Edged Sword in Ocular Inflammation and Immune Regulation.
Clin Rev Allergy Immunol
March 2025
School of Chinese Medicine, Hong Kong Baptist University, Hong Kong, China.
Uveitis involves a complex interplay of immune cell infiltration and cytokine imbalances, with Th17 cells playing a central role in this process. Th17 cells contribute to disease pathogenesis by promoting inflammation, recruiting additional immune cells, and directly damaging retinal tissues. This review discusses the current knowledge on therapeutic strategies targeting Th17-related cytokines, including cytokine blockade, small molecule inhibitors, and immunomodulatory approaches.
