White Matter Microstructure and Cognitive Decline in Aging and Alzheimer Disease: A Comprehensive Review of Recent Advances

This review synthesizes recent large-scale multi-cohort studies revealing white matter microstructural abnormalities—especially free water increases—in limbic tracts as critical markers of cognitive decline in aging and Alzheimer's disease, emphasizing integrated biomarker approaches.

Ezabenlimab plus mDCF Induction and Adaptive Chemoradiotherapy Achieve High Complete Response Rates in Stage 3 Squamous Cell Anal Carcinoma (INTERACT-ION)

The INTERACT-ION phase 2 trial reports that induction ezabenlimab with modified DCF followed by biomarker-guided, involved-node radiotherapy produced high clinical complete response rates (overall 77.8%) with a manageable safety profile in stage 3 anal squamous cell carcinoma.
SUPREMO Ten-Year Results: Chest‑Wall Irradiation After Mastectomy Lowers Local Recurrence but Does Not Improve 10‑Year Survival in Intermediate‑Risk Breast Cancer

SUPREMO Ten-Year Results: Chest‑Wall Irradiation After Mastectomy Lowers Local Recurrence but Does Not Improve 10‑Year Survival in Intermediate‑Risk Breast Cancer

The SUPREMO randomized trial found that postmastectomy chest‑wall irradiation reduces chest‑wall recurrence but does not improve 10‑year overall survival for intermediate‑risk breast cancer; a large real‑world analysis supports no overall survival benefit except possibly for pT3N0 disease.
