Introduction: The ADHEAR is a non-surgical Bone Conduction Device (BCD) that makes use of an adhesive adapter. While clinical trials have demonstrated its efficacy with regards to audiological performance, safety and compliance, data on real-world paediatric cohorts is scarce.
Methods: This retrospective cohort study analysed data from paediatric patients fitted with ADHEAR at a tertiary centre between January 2017 and September 2024.

Background: THP (trastuzumab + paclitaxel + pertuzumab) and THPy (trastuzumab + paclitaxel + pyrotinib) are widely used as first-line regimens for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive metastatic breast cancer (MBC) in China. However, direct comparative data on their efficacy and safety remain scarce. This study evaluates and compares the clinical outcomes of THPy and THP in the first-line treatment of HER2-positive MBC to guide clinical decision-making.

Background: Lower extremity arterial disease is a prevalent vascular condition leading to ischemic symptoms and increased risk of cardiovascular events. Drug-eluting stents have improved outcomes by reducing restenosis, with sirolimus emerging as a promising alternative to paclitaxel due to its safer profile. This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of novel polymer-free Amphilimus formulation (Sirolimus + fatty acid) eluting self-expanding stent in the treatment of femoropopliteal disease in a real-world population.

Metastatic urothelial carcinoma (mUC) remains a disease with poor prognosis. While conventional platinum-based chemotherapy has long served as the standard first-line treatment, its survival benefit is limited, particularly in cisplatin-ineligible patients. The introduction of immune checkpoint inhibitors and antibody-drug conjugates as part of sequential treatment has improved outcomes, with pembrolizumab, avelumab, and enfortumab vedotin (EV) providing survival benefit in later lines.

Despite therapeutic advances, multiple myeloma (MM) remains incurable, especially in relapsed/refractory (R/R) cases. B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) is a key target for novel immunotherapies, including chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapies and bispecific T-cell engagers (BiTEs), which vary in efficacy, toxicity, and accessibility. To compare the efficacy and safety of BCMA-directed CAR-T therapies and BiTEs in R/R MM through a systematic review and meta-analysis.
