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.

IL‑10–Armored anti‑CD19 CAR T Cells for R/R B‑ALL: Promising Phase 1 Safety Signals and a New Strategy to Tame Inflammatory Toxicity

A phase 1, single‑arm study evaluated IL‑10–expressing anti‑CD19 CAR T cells in relapsed/refractory B‑ALL, reporting feasibility and encouraging safety signals suggesting attenuated inflammatory toxicity while preserving anti‑leukemic activity. Larger controlled studies are needed to confirm benefit and infectious risk.

Preoperative PAXG Improves Event‑Free Survival over mFOLFIRINOX in Resectable and Borderline Resectable Pancreatic Cancer: First Randomisation Results from PACT‑21 CASSANDRA

In the multicentre phase 3 PACT‑21 CASSANDRA trial, preoperative PAXG significantly prolonged event‑free survival versus mFOLFIRINOX in resectable and borderline resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, with comparable high‑grade toxicity and overall tolerability.

Single-dose Cervarix induces durable seropositivity but fails HPV‑16 GMC non-inferiority versus three-dose Gardasil-4: implications from the PRIMAVERA immunobridging trial

PRIMAVERA immunobridging shows single-dose Cervarix induces near-universal seropositivity at 36 months and non-inferior HPV-18 antibodies versus three-dose Gardasil-4, but HPV-16 antibody GMCs were lower; results inform but do not yet support regulatory single-dose approval.

One in Three Head and Neck Cancer Survivors Still Have Supportive Care Needs at Five Years — Fear of Recurrence and Pain Drive Long-Term Demand

Longitudinal data from 403 head and neck cancer survivors show that while information and health-system needs decline between years 2 and 5, one-third report at least one moderate-to-high unmet supportive care need at year 5—notably fatigue and dry mouth—with fear of cancer recurrence and ongoing analgesic use being the strongest correlates.

Half of Long‑Term Head and Neck Cancer Survivors Report Unmet Supportive Care Needs — A Multinational Cohort Highlights Clinical and System Drivers

A multinational cross‑sectional study of 1,097 head and neck cancer survivors >5 years after diagnosis found that ~50% report moderate‑to‑high unmet supportive care needs, driven by HNC‑specific, psychological and physical/daily living concerns and associated with personal, clinical, lifestyle and health‑system factors.

Dutch Nationwide Registry Shows Large Health-System Burden and Early Progression Risk in Advanced Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma

The Dutch Keratinocyte Cancer Collaborative (DKCC) provides the first nationwide longitudinal real-world dataset of advanced cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC), estimating that 8% of CSCC are locally advanced and demonstrating short median times to recurrence or metastasis, substantial resource needs, and meaningful proportions of untreated metastatic episodes.

Rare but Real: Higher Risks of Vascular and Inflammatory Disease After SARS‑CoV‑2 Infection Than After BNT162b2 Vaccination in Children and Adolescents

A nationwide English cohort study (n≈13.9M) found transient but significant increases in rare vascular and inflammatory events after first SARS‑CoV‑2 infection and a smaller, short-lived increase in myocarditis/pericarditis after first BNT162b2 vaccination—supporting vaccination to reduce greater risks from infection.

Increased Gestational Weight Gain and Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes After Stopping GLP‑1 Receptor Agonists Prior to or in Early Pregnancy

In a large retrospective cohort, women who discontinued GLP‑1 receptor agonists shortly before or during early pregnancy had greater gestational weight gain and higher risks of preterm birth, gestational diabetes, and hypertensive disorders compared with propensity‑matched unexposed pregnancies.

Bivalent RSV pre‑F Vaccine Dramatically Reduces RSV‑Associated Hospitalisations and Chronic‑Disease Exacerbations in Adults Aged 75–79 Years

In a multicentre test‑negative study of 1006 adults aged 75–79 in England, a bivalent RSV pre‑F vaccine reduced RSV‑associated hospitalisation by 82% overall and protected against severe disease and exacerbations of chronic heart and lung disease, including in immunosuppressed patients.
Three-Month Clofazimine–Rifapentine Regimen for Drug‑Susceptible TB Failed to Improve Outcomes and Raised Safety Concerns: Lessons from Clo‑Fast (Phase 2c)

Three-Month Clofazimine–Rifapentine Regimen for Drug‑Susceptible TB Failed to Improve Outcomes and Raised Safety Concerns: Lessons from Clo‑Fast (Phase 2c)

The Clo‑Fast phase 2c trial tested a 3‑month rifapentine‑clofazimine regimen versus standard 6‑month therapy for drug‑susceptible pulmonary TB. Culture conversion at 12 weeks was similar, but shorter therapy had higher grade ≥3 adverse events and worse 65‑week composite clinical outcomes, leading to early termination.

Orodispersible Ivermectin and Moxidectin–Albendazole Combinations Deliver Major Gains Against Trichuris trichiura in Children: Dose‑response, Safety, and Programmatic Implications

Two randomized trials from Pemba Island show orodispersible ivermectin–albendazole yields dose‑dependent high cure rates in preschool children, and moxidectin–albendazole is superior to albendazole alone in school‑aged children, both with acceptable safety.
