Background And Purpose: This study aims to examine the global, regional, and national burden of stroke in young adults from 1992 to 2021.
Method: We conducted a comprehensive assessment of stroke metrics among individuals aged 15-49 using data from the 2021 Global Burden of Disease (GBD) database, covering 204 countries at global, regional, and national levels. The metrics evaluated included age-standardized incidence rates (ASIR), death rates (ASDR), disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), average annual percentage changes (AAPCs), and joinpoint regression analysis.
Results: Between 1992 and 2021, the ASIR, ASDR, and DALYs for ischemic stroke (IS), intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), and subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) among young adults globally decreased. The incidence, mortality, and DALYs for all three stroke types declined in both young females and males. In countries with low-middle and middle Socio-demographic Index (SDI), the ASIR for IS showed an upward trend, while the ASIR for ICH and SAH decreased across different SDI countries. Nationally, the incidence, death, and DALYs for all three types of stroke decreased in the vast majority of countries, with only a few countries showing an increased trend.
Conclusion: From 1992 to 2021, the overall trend in stroke burden among young adults was downward. However, in certain countries and regions, incidence, death, and DALYs related to stroke still rose. It is crucial for nations around the globe to adopt comprehensive, easily accessible, and cost-effective strategies aimed at improving stroke monitoring, prevention, emergency treatment, and rehabilitative care, ultimately alleviating the impact of stroke.

Rare diseases, defined by the 2002 Rare Disease Act, affect fewer than 5 in 10,000 individuals. Rare metabolic bone diseases (MBDs), such as osteogenesis imperfecta, hypophosphatasia, osteopetrosis, and other unclassified disorders, can disrupt bone development and remodeling, posing diagnostic and management challenges. This study analyzed data from the rarembd.

Objective: Reveal the changing rule of the positional relationship between the uncinate process of cervical spine and vertebral artery by measuring the relevant parameters between the uncinate process of cervical spine and vertebral artery in different age groups.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on 1240 cases of cervical spine imaging data from 2018 to 2021 in the Radiology Department of the Affiliated Hospital of Inner Mongolia Medical University. The distance between the uncinate process superior ridge and vertebral artery and the maximum of pedicle transverse angle, the minimum of pedicle transverse angle, the range of pedicle transverse angle and the pedicle width were measured according to age groups.

Background: Endometriosis symptoms have multifaceted manifestations, and there are few approved nonsurgical treatment options. Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists/antagonists for endometriosis vary on efficacy, safety profile, and out-of-pocket (OOP) cost, among other features.
Objectives: This study quantified the importance that women with endometriosis in the United States (US) placed on pain and non-pain features that differ among these medications.

Background: The aging of the world's population has led to a growing need for innovative strategies to promote active aging and bridge generational divides. Intergenerational Programs (IGPs) that engage young adults (18-30 years) and older adults (65 + years) have demonstrated the potential to improve well-being and reduce ageism. However, the evidence for this pairing of ages is still fragmentary.

The harmonization workshops of the leukemia committee of the Société française des cancers de l'enfant (SFCE) aim to establish practical recommendations based on the one hand, on data from the literature and international recommendations and, on the other hand, by consensus in the absence of formally proven data. Adolescent pubescent girls and young adults undergoing intensive chemotherapy treatment may present with heavy uterine bleeding (HUB). Data collected from 25 French centers showed that there was considerable heterogeneity in the management of HUB either in prophylaxis or curative strategy.
