The report attempts to show why therapeutic success in the treatment of Hodgkin's disease levelled off at the start of the Eighties. The prospects of future treatment based on more accurate interpretation of clinical and histopathological data, further cytological and immunological research as well as improved therapeutic techniques more carefully adapted to the variety of prognoses are also discussed.

Economic and labour policies have a considerable influence on health and well-being through direct financial impacts, and by shaping social and physical environments. Strong economies are important for public health investment and employment, yet the rapid rise of generative artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to reshape economies, presenting challenges beyond mere temporary market disruption. Generative AI can perform non-routine cognitive tasks, previously unattainable though traditional automation, creating new efficiencies.

The purpose of this article, part 1 of 2 on randomised controlled trials (RCTs), is to provide readers (eg, clinicians, patients, health service and policy decision-makers) of the nutrition literature structured guidance on interpreting RCTs. Evaluation of a given RCT involves several considerations, including the potential for risk of bias, the assessment of estimates of effect and their corresponding precision, and the applicability of the evidence to one's patient. Risk of bias refers to flaws in the design or conduct of a study that may lead to a deviation from measuring the underlying true effect of an intervention.

Introduction: Patients with leukemia undergoing bone marrow aspiration (BMA) frequently experience considerable pain and anxiety, which may negatively impact physiological outcomes. Reflexology, a complementary therapeutic approach, has demonstrated effectiveness in reducing pain and anxiety across various medical procedures. This randomized clinical trial aimed to evaluate the impact of foot reflexology on pain, anxiety, and physiological indices in leukemia patients undergoing BMA.

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a long-term metabolic condition that presents considerable health challenges globally. As the disease progresses, the interplay between genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors becomes increasingly evident, leading to complications. Epigenetics has emerged as a critical area of research, providing insights into how these factors can modify the expression and cellular behavior without altering the underlying DNA sequence.
