The choice of adjuvant radiotherapy in pancreatic cancer patients after up-front radical surgery.
PLoS One
January 2025
Department of Radiation Oncology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, Suzhou, Jiangsu Province, China.
Background: The role of adjuvant radiotherapy in pancreatic cancer following radical surgery remains a subject of of controversy. This study aimed to more accurately screen pancreatic patients who benefit from adjuvant radiotherapy.
Methods: Clinicopathologic characteristics of patients with resectable pancreatic cancer were collected from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database (2004-2015).
Risk Factors for Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip Before 3 Months of Age: A Meta-Analysis.
JAMA Netw Open
January 2025
Interdisciplinary Orthopaedics, Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Aalborg University Hospital, Aalborg, Denmark.
Importance: Two meta-analyses published in 2012 found breech presentation, family history of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), female sex, and primiparity to increase the risk of DDH. However, the DDH definition, reference tests, and the age of the examined children varied considerably, complicating the translation of those findings to current screening guidelines.
Objective: To evaluate the association of previously proposed risk factors with the risk of sonography-verified DDH.
On Inclusion of Covariates in Model Based Dose Finding Clinical Trial Designs.
Stat Med
February 2025
MRC Biostatistics Unit, University of Cambridge, Cambridge, UK.
There is a growing number of Phase I dose-finding studies that use a model-based approach, such as the CRM or the EWOC method to estimate the dose-toxicity relationship. It is common to assume that all patients will have similar toxicity risk given the dose regardless of patients' individual characteristics. In many trials, however, some patients' covariates (e.

Curr Cardiol Rep
January 2025
Berne Cardiovascular Research Center and Division of Cardiology, University of Virginia, Charlottesville, USA.
Purpose Of The Review: Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is a transient form of left ventricular dysfunction, typically affecting post-menopausal females, often preceded by emotional or physical stressful events that act as triggers. Initially believed to be a rare and benign condition for its reversible nature, TTS has recently emerged as a complex multifaceted clinical entity, with heterogenous clinical presentations and a non-negligible risk of serious in-hospital complications, including acute heart failure, arrhythmias and death.
Recent Findings: Emerging pathophysiological hypotheses, ranging from microvascular dysfunction to systemic inflammation, offer new insights into the underlying mechanisms of TTS.
Niraparib Maintenance Therapy in Patients with Platinum-Sensitive Recurrent Ovarian Cancer: Real-World Experience at Hospitals in Spain.
Target Oncol
January 2025
Pharmacy Service, H. Móstoles, Madrid, Spain.
Background: The reported benefit of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor (PARPi) maintenance in patients with newly diagnosed and platinum (Pt)-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer (OC) included in randomized clinical trials needs to be corroborated in a less selected population.
Objective: The aim is to increase the evidence on niraparib in a real-world setting.
Methods: This is a retrospective observational study including women with platinum-sensitive relapsed high-grade serous OC who started niraparib maintenance between August 2019 (marketing data, Spain) and May 2022.
