The Expert Council has developed an algorithm for the diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of patients with diabetes mellitus complicated by diabetic polyneuropathy (DPN), intended for use in both outpatient and inpatient settings. Particular emphasis is placed on the importance of early detection of DPN and interdisciplinary collaboration among specialists. The proposed algorithm includes recommendations for screening, clinical and instrumental diagnostics, risk stratification, and therapy selection based on the neuropathy phenotype, as well as the staged application of pathogenetic and symptomatic treatments, criteria for evaluating effectiveness, and indications for therapy continuation or adjustment. Experts highlighted the pathogenetic rationale for prescribing agents with neuroprotective and co-analgesic effects, including ipidacrine, which has proven efficacy and a legal basis for use in DPN. The algorithm promotes the standardization of care and can be integrated into the clinical practice of primary care physicians, endocrinologists, and neurologists.

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain a leading cause of death, particularly in developing countries, where their incidence continues to rise. Traditional CVD diagnostic methods are often time-consuming and inconvenient, necessitating more efficient alternatives. Rapid and accurate measurement of cardiac biomarkers released into body fluids is critical for early detection, timely intervention, and improved patient outcomes.

Importance: Antibiotics, steroids, and proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are suspected to decrease the efficacy of immunotherapy.
Objective: To explore the association of comedications with overall survival (OS) in patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Design, Setting, And Participants: This nationwide retrospective cohort study used target trial emulations of patients newly diagnosed with NSCLC from January 2015 to December 2022, identified from the French national health care database.

Importance: Research in behavioral economics has demonstrated that people have irrational biases, which make them susceptible to decisional shortcuts, or heuristics. The extent to which physicians consciously might use nudges to exploit these heuristics and thereby influence their patients' decision-making is unclear. In addition, ethical questions about the conscious use of nudges in medicine persist, yet little is known about how physicians experience and perceive their use.

Importance: Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is typically caused by the Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) and recurs in 40% of patients. Half of patients with MCC produce antibodies to MCPyV oncoproteins, the titers of which rise with disease recurrence and fall after successful treatment.
Objective: To assess the utility of MCPyV oncoprotein antibodies for early detection of first recurrence of MCC in a real-world clinical setting.
