International Reference Values for Total Pancreatectomy Show Higher Perioperative Risk Than Pancreatoduodenectomy — Practical Benchmarks for Quality Control

This multicenter study defines international perioperative reference values for total pancreatectomy (TP). Even low‑risk TP carries higher morbidity and mortality than pancreatoduodenectomy; outcomes worsen with vascular resection or conversion for high‑risk anastomosis.

Thyroid Cancer in Adolescents and Young Adults Is Surging Worldwide — But Deaths Aren’t: Strong Evidence of Overdiagnosis from a 185‑Country Analysis

A 185-country study shows large, sustained increases in thyroid cancer incidence among adolescents and young adults (15–39 years) since the 2000s while mortality remains low and stable — a pattern most consistent with widespread overdiagnosis and overtreatment.

High, Persistent Breast Cancer Mortality in Sub‑Saharan Africa: 7‑Year ABC‑DO Cohort Reveals Major Survival Gaps and Actionable Targets

A 7‑year follow-up of 2,153 women in the ABC‑DO cohort shows poor breast cancer survival in much of sub‑Saharan Africa, with 5‑year crude survival 40% and marked between-country and racial disparities; reaching WHO stage downstaging targets and improving treatment access could cut deaths by about a third.

Fixed‑Duration Venetoclax After RBAC Improves 2‑Year PFS in High‑Risk Older Mantle Cell Lymphoma: Final Results of the FIL_V‑RBAC Phase 2 Study

In a multicentre, risk‑adapted phase 2 trial, adding fixed‑duration venetoclax after rituximab‑bendamustine‑cytarabine (RBAC) produced a 2‑year progression‑free survival of 60% in older patients with high‑risk mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). Toxicities were manageable, neutropenia was most common, and one treatment‑related death occurred.

Nationwide China Study Reveals Age-Specific Burden and Survival Gaps in Acute Leukaemia: Good Outcomes for Children and APL; Poor Prognosis in Older Adults

A large linkage of Chinese national registries (628.4 million population) estimates 43,275 acute leukaemia cases in 2019, describes age-specific incidence peaks in early childhood and older age, reports major survival gains for children and APL, and highlights dismal outcomes for patients ≥60 years.

Neoadjuvant Chidamide plus Anthracycline–Taxane Chemotherapy Yields a 35% RCB 0–I Rate in HR+/HER2– Breast Cancer: Early Phase 2 Results from MUKDEN 05

In a multicentre phase 2 single-arm trial, oral chidamide added to standard epirubicin–cyclophosphamide followed by docetaxel produced an RCB 0–I rate of 35.2% in stage II–III HR+/HER2– breast cancer, with high rates of grade 3–4 neutropenia but no treatment-related deaths.

Most Adolescents and Young Adults with Solid Tumours Reach Near-Normal 5-Year Survival Within Four Years — Implications for ‘Right to be Forgotten’ Policies

Population-based Dutch data show that AYA survivors of most solid malignancies achieve five-year conditional relative survival >95% by four years post-diagnosis, supporting reconsideration of blanket 10‑year disclosure periods in Right to Be Forgotten laws.

Aducanumab Removes Superficial Cortical Amyloid but Associates with Local Vascular Injury and ARIA: Clinicopathological Evidence from a Retrospective Case–Control Study

Autopsy of aducanumab-treated Alzheimer’s cases shows preferential clearance of superficial layer I amyloid, PET Centiloid reductions, and ARIA-associated microvascular pathology, implicating perivascular amyloid removal and vessel injury as mechanisms that inform monitoring and therapy design.

Tỷ lệ mắc xơ gan ở các nhóm kinh tế và nhân khẩu học tại Thụy Điển: Một nghiên cứu quần thể dựa trên đăng ký và bối cảnh toàn cầu

Bài đánh giá này tổng hợp các bằng chứng về sự gia tăng tỷ lệ mắc xơ gan ở Thụy Điển, nhấn mạnh sự chênh lệch kinh tế xã hội rõ rệt, đặc biệt là trong xơ gan liên quan đến bệnh gan do rượu (ALD) và bệnh gan mỡ liên quan đến rối loạn chuyển hóa (MASLD), với những tác động rộng lớn hơn đối với các nước có thu nhập cao trong việc phòng ngừa và phát hiện sớm.
