Article Abstract
Aim: This observational study evaluated treatment patterns and survival for patients with stage I-IIIA non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Materials & Methods: Adults newly diagnosed with NSCLC in 2012-2016 at IPO-Porto hospital were included. Treatment data were available for patients diagnosed in 2015-2016.
Results: 495 patients were included (median age: 67 years). The most common treatments were surgery alone or with another therapy (stage I: 66%) and systemic anticancer therapy plus radiotherapy (stage II: 54%; stage IIIA: 59%). One-year OS (95% CI) for patients with stage I, II and IIIA NSCLC (diagnosed 2012-2016) were 92% (88-96), 71% (62-82) and 69% (63-75), respectively; one-year OS (95% CI) for treated patients with stage I-II or stage IIIA NSCLC (diagnosed 2015-2016) were 89% (81-97) and 86% (75-98) for non-squamous cell and 76% (60-95) and 49% (34-70) for squamous cell NSCLC.
Conclusion: Treatment advances are strongly needed for stage I-IIIA NSCLC, especially for patients with squamous cell histology.

Background: We investigated circulating protein profiles and molecular pathways among various chronic kidney disease (CKD) etiologies to study its underlying molecular heterogeneity.
Methods: We conducted a proteomic biomarker analysis in the DAPA-CKD trial recruiting adults with and without type 2 diabetes with an eGFR of 25 to 75 mL/min/1.73m2 and a UACR of 200 to 5000 mg/g.

Hormonal status and lymphatic invasion are two important prognostic factors among cases of breast cancer. This study aims to assess and evaluate the hormonal receptor status and lymph node involvement among female breast cancer patients in Duhok city, Kurdistan region, Iraq. A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted, involving 156 diagnosed cases of breast cancer who had undergone surgical treatment and laboratory investigations at Azadi Teaching Hospital and Duhok Private Hospital for 30 months.

Introduction: Information on tertiary hyperparathyroidism (THPTH) among chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients on haemodialysis in developing countries such as India is limited, and the mortality among them remains a query.
Materials And Methods: This was a prospective cohort study conducted in at a tertiary care centre from June 2017 to June 2022. The index of suspicion for tertiary hyperparathyroidism was when investigations revealed high serum calcium and high alkaline phosphatase along with new onset of body aches, joint pains, and difficulty in walking.

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a public health concern; kidney size correlates with kidney function, except in diabetic kidney disease (DKD), where the kidney enlarges, limiting morphological measurement applications in CKD management. However, cortical size changes in DKD along with CKD progression remain understudied. We investigated kidney morphology alterations in patients with and without diabetes and established a regression equation for kidney function incorporating morphological alterations.

We developed and implemented a PrEP navigation program ("SNAPS") in a NYC safety-net hospital with the objectives to co-locate navigation, clinical PrEP services, and payment assistance. Adherence and retention to PrEP-related care were assessed by mean medication possession ratios (MPRs) and number of appointments over 12 months. Compared to the pre-SNAPS cohort, the post-SNAPS cohort was less likely to be cisgender male (64.
