Background: Prior studies have implicated diabetes as a risk factor for pancreatic cancer, yet the impact of diabetes progression on pancreatic cancer incidence remains unclear. We aim to assess pancreatic cancer risk across different stages of diabetes.
Methods: Employing a predefined search strategy, we conducted a literature review of electronic databases up to 29 February 2024.

Objective: To describe the sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of individuals exposed to smoking or biomass smoke and followed at primary health care (PHC) centers across three states in Brazil.
Methods: This was a cross-sectional multicenter study including patients followed at any of four PHC centers in Brazil. Patients ≥ 35 years of age who were smokers or former smokers, or were exposed to biomass smoke were included, the exception being those with physical/mental disabilities and those who were pregnant.

Background: Since Ludwig proposed the term "nonalcoholic steatohepatitis" (NASH) for this liver disease in 1980, there have been many advances in understanding it, including its epidemiology, pathogenesis, diagnostic methods, and treatment.
Objective: This literature review aims to discuss the most relevant aspects of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD).
Methods: The review included clinical studies from the following databases: Embase, PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Lilacs, Ovid, and Scopus.

Background: The prevalence of Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) increases with aging, significantly contributing to the rising burden of non-communicable diseases (NCDs). This study aimed to investigate over-time changes in the prevalence of MetS and its components among the elderly population of Iran.
Methods: We analyzed data from the 2016 and 2021 national STEPwise approach to non-communicable disease risk factor Surveillance (STEPS) for participants aged ≥65 who completed all three survey steps (questionnaire-based assessments, physical measurements, and laboratory tests) with no missing data on MetS components.

Motivation: Drug repositioning presents a streamlined and cost-efficient way to expand the range of therapeutic possibilities. Drugs with human genetic evidence are more likely to advance successfully through clinical trials towards FDA approval. Single gene-based drug repositioning methods have been implemented, but approaches leveraging a broad spectrum of molecular signatures remain underexplored.
