Little is known about risk factors for central nervous system (CNS) relapse in mature T-cell and natural killer cell neoplasms (MTNKNs). We aimed to describe the clinical epidemiology of CNS relapse in patients with MTNKN and developed the CNS relapse In T-cell lymphoma Index (CITI) to predict patients at the highest risk of CNS relapse. We reviewed data from 135 patients with MTNKN and CNS relaps
Between Circles and Constellations is organised by Sharjah Art Foundation and MACBA Museu d'Art Contemporani de Barcelona. The exhibition is curated by Hoor Al Qasimi, Director and President of Sharjah Art Foundation, with Amal Al Ali and Meera Madhu, Curatorial Assistants at Sharjah Art Foundation.Between Circles and Constellations attests to Bouchra Khalili's committed enquiry into the hidden hi
Objectives: Posttransplant infections may lead to dire consequences in immunocompromised organ recipients. Oral foci of infection are therefore often eliminated prior to solid organ transplantation to reduce posttransplant morbidity. However, despite increasing numbers of organ transplantations the necessity of pretransplant dental treatment and its effect on transplant outcome remains uncertain.
Background: High-dose haemodiafiltration has been shown, in a randomised clinical trial, to result in a 23% lower risk of mortality for patients with kidney failure when compared with conventional high-flux haemodialysis. Nevertheless, whether treatment effects differ across subgroups, whether a dose–response relationship with convection volume exists, and the effects on cause-specific mortality r
Background: Beta-cell monogenic forms of diabetes have strong support for precision medicine. We systematically analyzed evidence for precision treatments for GCK-related hyperglycemia, HNF1A-, HNF4A- and HNF1B-diabetes, and mitochondrial diabetes (MD) due to m.3243 A > G variant, 6q24-transient neonatal diabetes mellitus (TND) and SLC19A2-diabetes. Methods: The search of PubMed, MEDLINE, and Emba
Context. Among the thousands of exoplanets discovered to date, approximately a few hundred gas giants on short-period orbits are classified as 'lonely'and only a few are in a multi-planet system with a smaller companion on a close orbit. The processes that formed multi-planet systems hosting gas giants on close orbits are poorly understood, and only a few examples of this kind of system have been
Context. The TOI-178 system consists of a nearby, late-K-dwarf with six transiting planets in the super-Earth to mini-Neptune regime, with radii ranging from ∼1.1 to 2.9 R⊕ and orbital periods between 1.9 and 20.7 days. All the planets, but the innermost one, form a chain of Laplace resonances. The fine-tuning and fragility of such orbital configurations ensure that no significant scattering or co
Multiplanetary systems spanning the radius valley are ideal testing grounds for exploring the different proposed explanations for the observed bimodality in the radius distribution of close-in exoplanets. One such system is HIP 29442 (TOI-469), an evolved K0V star hosting two super-Earths and one sub-Neptune. We observed HIP 29442 with CHEOPS for a total of 9.6 days, which we modelled jointly with
BACKGROUND: While the associations between pediatric non-obese metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) and multiple diagnostic biomarkers are well-established, the role of a broader range of blood-based, urine-based, and body composition-based biomarkers for monitoring MAFLD are needed.METHODS: A pediatric cohort was established in Wuxi, China. We measured body composition bio
OBJECTIVE: Infective native aneurysms of the femoropopliteal arteries (INA-FPs) are rare and mostly reported in intravenous drug users (IVDU). This study aimed to summarize all cases of INA-FPs presented in the literature, to describe patient characteristics, microbiology, treatments and outcomes, and compare IVDU with non-IVDU patients.METHODS: A systematic search of PubMed, ScienceDirect, Embase
Introduction: Malaria remains a persistent challenge in global health, disproportionately affecting populations in endemic regions (eg, sub-Saharan Africa). Despite decades of international collaborative efforts, malaria continues to claim hundreds of thousands of lives each year, with young children and pregnant women enduring the heaviest burden. This concise review aimed to provide an up-to-dat
Bouchra Khalili occupies three theater stages, offering the present a sensitive echo of hidden memories and forgotten stories.With her project Asterisms (Fig. 1 to 3), Bouchra Khalili, visual artist invited to the 2025 edition of the Festival d’Automne, successively invests three theater stages to explore the links between the representation of buried histories, performance, and moving images. Dra
We present new observations from CHEOPS (CHaracterising ExOPlanet Satellite) and TESS (Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite) to clarify the architecture of the planetary system hosted by the old Galactic thick disc star TOI-561. Our global analysis, which also includes previously published photometric and radial velocity data, incontrovertibly proves that TOI-561 is hosting at least four transiti
Southern Kazakhstan, particularly the Zhambyl Region, is facing increasing groundwater stress due to climate change, degradation of irrigation infrastructure, and unsustainable water use. Despite substantial renewable groundwater reserves (8.33 km3/year), irrigation still relies on ephemeral surface flow. This study delineates priority zones for Managed Aquifer Recharge (MAR) using a GIS-based Mul
Background: Neuroimaging with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may assist clinicians in evaluating brain injury and optimising care in comatose adults resuscitated after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). However, contemporary international data on its use are lacking. Aim: The primary aim was to compare the patient characteristics, early postresuscitation care, and neurological outcomes of pa
Background Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) represents a group of rare hereditary disorders characterised by deficient ciliary airway clearance that can be associated with laterality defects. We aimed to describe the underlying gene defects, geographical differences in genotypes and their relationship to diagnostic findings and clinical phenotypes. Methods Genetic variants and clinical findings (a
Background: Drug-related problems are common in older individuals. A medication reconciliation has the goal of identifying and maintaining an accurate medication list and can serve to prevent drug-related problems caused by discrepancies. Objectives: This study aimed to explore primary care physicians’ intentions towards performing medication reconciliation in patients with multimorbidity using a
Objectives Assessment of Different NEoplasias in the adneXa (ADNEX) and Risk of Malignancy Index (RMI) are models that estimate the risk of malignancy in ovarian masses based on clinical and ultrasound information. The aim is to perform a meta-analysis of studies that compared the performance of the two models in the same patients (‘head-to-head comparison’). Design Systematic review and meta-anal
The extensive genetic diversity of HIV-1 represents a major challenge to public health interventions, treatment, and successful vaccine design. This challenge is particularly pronounced in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, where limited data among other barriers preclude the accurate characterization of HIV-1 genetic diversity. The objective of this review was to analyze studies cond
