This review synthesizes evidence identifying critical programmatic factors, relational dynamics, and interventions enhancing hospice transitions in cancer palliative care, emphasizing collaborative oncology-palliative care relationships and
The TRANSPORT trial showed no superiority of liberal versus restrictive RBC transfusion in septic shock patients with cancer, highlighting no mortality benefit and increased thrombotic events with liberal strategy, underscoring the need for
This review synthesizes evidence on the prevalence, incidence, and prognosis of cancer and heart failure comorbidity in Scotland, integrating recent cohort data and cardio-oncology research to inform clinical practice and future research di
A national study of veterans with cancer found elevated suicide-related risk that persisted for years, especially among younger, unmarried, frail, or mentally ill patients and those with certain cancers such as central nervous system and th
Elevated levels of inflammatory and cardiac biomarkers are linked to higher risks of venous thromboembolism and bleeding in cancer patients, according to a post hoc analysis of the AVERT trial.
This review analyzes multinational data showing a significant decline in cardiovascular mortality among diabetes patients, alongside a concerning rise in dementia-related deaths and the emergence of cancer as a leading cause of mortality in
This review synthesizes recent evidence from large-scale cohorts and synthetic control studies, demonstrating that medical cannabis participation and dispensary availability are significantly associated with reduced opioid prescriptions and
A 2025 Cochrane review (5 RCTs, 402 patients, mainly women with breast cancer) finds very low- to moderate-certainty evidence that acupuncture delivers small, uncertain sleep diary benefits versus sham or inactive controls and is probably l
A prospective cohort in Bangladesh found that declines in urinary arsenic were associated with substantially lower chronic-disease mortality—including cancer and cardiovascular deaths—supporting public-health efforts to reduce arsenic expos
Israeli scientists have developed a novel small molecule drug that targets RNA structures maintaining cancer cell immortality, providing a promising new approach to treating hard-to-cure cancers with unparalleled precision.
A UK–Ireland partnership ranked the top research uncertainties for oesophagogastric cancers; priorities emphasize personalising multimodal treatment, nutrition and quality of life, and stronger patient-centred trial design to accelerate mea
This analysis of EPIC and UK Biobank cohorts reveals that healthy plant-based diets reduce multimorbidity risk of cancer and cardiometabolic diseases, especially in middle-aged adults, underscoring diet’s role in chronic disease preve
New research reveals that a protein called plasmin weakens human immune response against cancer compared to chimpanzees, offering promising strategies to enhance cancer immunotherapy.
Venous and arterial thrombotic events in cancer patients are underreported in clinical trials, impairing risk assessment and prevention strategies. Uniform and comprehensive reporting is imperative to improve patient outcomes and guide ther
Emerging research reveals that any alcohol consumption increases the risk of dozens of diseases, debunking myths about moderate drinking’s benefits—especially for Chinese men. Quitting alcohol triggers remarkable health improvements a
An 18-month course of rivaroxaban significantly lowers recurrent venous thromboembolism compared to 6 months in cancer patients with low-risk pulmonary embolism without a substantial increase in major bleeding risk.
Low-dose aspirin added to anticoagulation for cancer-associated VTE reduces recurrence and PE-related mortality but increases bleeding risk, without improving overall survival or net clinical benefit over 6 months.
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are pivotal regulators in cancer biology and immunotherapy, acting through mechanisms such as miRNA sponging, protein interactions, and translation. Their modulation of tumor immune microenvironment offers promising
A novel bacteria-based therapy using two natural strains demonstrates complete tumor clearance in immunocompromised models, offering hope for cancer patients unsuitable for current immunotherapies.
