This cross-sectional study of 356 Slovak participants reveals that community screening effectively uncovers a significant hidden burden of hypertension and dysglycaemia, with age and male sex identified as key independent predictors for these conditions.
In a multicenter real-world study of 90 relapsed/refractory CLL patients, fixed-duration venetoclax–rituximab demonstrated durable disease control with high response rates, although prior BTK inhibitor exposure, TP53 disruption, and the absence of undetectable measurable residual disease were identified as key factors associated with inferior progression-free survival.
A post hoc analysis of the ANDROMEDA-SHOCK-2 trial demonstrates that capillary refill time–guided personalized hemodynamic resuscitation yields consistent and significant benefits for patients with early septic shock in both low- and high-income countries, despite marked differences in baseline severity and resuscitation practices.
This scoping review of 110 reports indicates that while large language models show promise for specific hearing care tasks, current evidence lacks proof of clinical benefit, prospective deployment, or robust privacy safeguards, highlighting an urgent need for future research focused on real-world impact, safety, and comparative effectiveness.
This qualitative study conducted in Uganda during August 2020 reveals that while most-at-risk communities possess high awareness of COVID-19 and trust Ministry of Health messages, adherence to preventive measures remains low due to varying risk perceptions, limited access to protective materials, and language barriers in communication.
This systematic review of 108 patients across 10 studies concludes that 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA)-guided resection during awake craniotomy is a feasible and functionally safe technique that enhances tumor visualization and supports maximal safe resection in eloquent regions, particularly for high-grade gliomas, without increasing permanent neurological morbidity.
This simulation-based study involving 32 general surgery residents found that listening to self-selected music did not significantly improve technical performance during early robotic surgery training, despite the protocol's feasibility and evidence of learning effects over time.
This study evaluated five diagnostic methods for *Schistosoma japonicum* in the Philippines, finding that while serological assays and molecular tests offer high sensitivity for detecting light infections, the Kato–Katz technique demonstrated the best overall discriminatory performance, highlighting that the optimal diagnostic tool depends on balancing accuracy with operational constraints like cost and field applicability.
This study of 300 displaced children in Sudan reveals a 42.7% prevalence of intestinal parasitic infections, with *Giardia lamblia* being the most common pathogen and younger age and lower family education identified as significant risk factors.
This study reveals a low (1.1%) seroprevalence of Rift Valley Fever virus in cattle slaughtered in Abuja, Nigeria, while highlighting critical gaps in abattoir workers' knowledge and widespread risky practices that necessitate enhanced surveillance and targeted educational interventions to mitigate zoonotic transmission.
