Introduction: Obesity and asthma are two of the most common childhood conditions and their prevalence have increased over the last decades. Several cross-sectional studies provide strong evidence for a positive association between these two conditions. However, few longitudinal studies have examined the temporal relationship between them.

Background: An autologous arteriovenous fistula (AVF) provides an optimal and secure way for managing the condition. An optimal blood supply to hemodialysis is linked to decreased incidence of complications and mortality, as well as reduced expenses. The objective of this research was to evaluate the outcome of people with suboptimal superficial venous system quality or who had exhausted all available arteriovenous fistula options, who received either autologous saphenous vein graft or polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) interposition graft as an access for effective hemodialysis.

While cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide, significant disparities exist in care access in low‑ and middle‑income countries (LMICs). In Liberia, screening and treatment for anal cancers remain limited, and are exacerbated among vulnerable groups, including men who have sex with men (MSM). Screen‑triage‑treat models for cancerous lesions have been successful in reducing cervical cancer mortality, but the feasibility of this approach has not been studied for anal cancers in a low‑resource context.

Regular physical activity and exercise (PA) are cornerstones of diabetes care for individuals with type 1 diabetes. In recent years, the availability of automated insulin delivery (AID) systems has improved the ability of people with type 1 diabetes to achieve the recommended glucose target ranges. PA provide additional health benefits but can cause glucose fluctuations, which challenges current AID systems.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how living alone or with someone who is chronically ill affects outcomes for hip fracture patients aged 50 and older.
- It found that 56% of 12,089 patients lived alone, who were generally older and had more long-term health conditions compared to those living with a co-resident.
- Living alone and living with someone with dementia significantly increased the risk of needing care home admission after a hip fracture, but living alone had no substantial effect on the likelihood of emergency hospital admission within 30 days.
