Cervical cancer is the second most common malignancy among South African women and the load of abnormal cervical smears has clinical, programmatic and policy implications. This cross-sectional study of women who presented for cervical cancer screening aimed to determine the prevalence of abnormal cervical smears and associated factors in primary health care (PHC) facilities in Gauteng-the most densely populated province in South Africa. A questionnaire collected data on socio-demography, tobacco use, sexual behaviours, HIV status, past treatment for sexually transmitted infections (STI) and cervical cancer screening in the past 10 years.

January 2025
Department of Medical Oncology, Antoni van Leeuwenhoek, Amsterdam, Netherlands.
Background: Patients with melanoma receiving immunotherapy with immune-checkpoint inhibitors often experience immune-related adverse events, cancer-related fatigue, and emotional distress, affecting health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and clinical outcome to immunotherapy. eHealth tools can aid patients with cancer in addressing issues, such as adverse events and psychosocial well-being, from various perspectives.
Objective: This study aimed to explore the effect of the Cancer Patients Better Life Experience (CAPABLE) system, accessed through a mobile app, on HRQoL compared with a matched historical control group receiving standard care.
Awaiting insurance coverage: Medicaid enrollment and post-acute care use after traumatic injury.
J Trauma Acute Care Surg
January 2025
From the Section of Trauma and Acute Care Surgery, Department of Surgery (D.N.H., J.S.H.), University of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois; Perelman School of Medicine (E.C.E., A.T.C., O.I.R., A.U.M., M.K.D., N.D.M., M.J.S., E.J.K.), Division of Trauma, Surgical Critical Care and Emergency Surgery (K.M.C., N.D.M., M.J.S., E.J.K.), University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; and Department of Surgery (L.M.K.), Stanford University, Stanford, California.
Background: Lack of insurance after traumatic injury is associated with decreased use of postacute care and poor outcomes. Insurance linkage programs enroll eligible patients in Medicaid at the time of an unplanned admission. We hypothesized that Medicaid enrollment would be associated with increased use of postacute care, but also with prolonged hospital length of stay (LOS) while awaiting insurance authorization.
