Jason Bergsbaken, PharmD, MBA, BCOP, highlights the operational challenges of value-based oncology care while emphasizing the need to balance standardized treatment pathways with flexibility for personalized, biomarker-driven care.

Real-world longitudinal data suggest that in CLL, regular immunoglobulin replacement therapy may not reduce, and may even correlate with increased, serious infection rates during treatment periods.

Early identification of multiple myeloma could help clinicians intervene more swiftly.

The use of retinal images can help investigators noninvasively identify chronic kidney disease and assess patient prognosis.

Patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis are at a higher risk of certain cardiovascular diseases.

Patient satisfaction was higher amongst patients who underwent a chest wall perforator flap reconstruction surgery as part of their breast cancer treatment when compared with other surgical techniques.

A multicenter study finds no difference in outcomes between frail and nonfrail elderly patients treated with tildrakizumab over 2 years.

There is a need to consolidate various long COVID definitions to establish a standardized definition that ensures consistent recognition, documentation, diagnosis, and treatment, according to new research.

Sedentary behaviors are associated with increased CVD risk and, when combined with social drivers of health, increase the risk of adverse CVD events like coronary heart disease, stroke, and heart failure.

Accessing pediatric dermatology care is challenging due to a shortage of specialists and general dermatologists' reluctance to treat children, but increasing their comfort level with seeing children could help bridge the gap, explained Elizabeth Garcia Creighton, of University of Colorado School of Medicine.

Machine learning holds promise for optimizing treatment strategies and potentially improving outcomes in respiratory failure but future research and development are necessary to fully realize its potential in clinical practice.

The QRISK3 assessment is designed for the general population, but it appears to also have utility in patients with essential thrombosis and polycythemia vera.

Left bundle branch block may serve as an important indicator for asymptomatic individuals predisposed to heart failure.

Social drivers of health are determined primarily by an individual’s economic stability, access to quality education, and health care. These factors also play a key role in the proportion of moderate-to-vigorous-intensity physical activity (MVPA) in an individual’s lifetime, which can also impact their cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk.

Angel Qin, MD, identified the critical role of immunotherapy timing and shared decision-making in small cell lung cancer while also addressing the need for more broadly applicable treatments and personalized care.

Pirtobrutinib had a nominally superior overall response rate compared to ibrutinib in certain patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL).

The trial is one of 2 phase 3 studies of upadacitinib in patients with severe alopecia areata.

Cilta-cel’s mechanism of action allows it to penetrate challenging areas of multiple myeloma, providing deep and durable responses even in high-risk patients, explains Surbhi Sidana, MD, MBBS, Stanford University. Still, safety trade-offs should always be a consideration, she adds.

Hadar Avihai Lev-Tov, MD, argues that integrating dermatologists into multidisciplinary health care teams is crucial for providing comprehensive patient care.

A new model was linked to decreased BMI, caloric intake, and loss of control eating in veterans with binge eating disorders or subjective binge eating episodes.

Dordaviprone (Modeyso) is now approved to treat recurrent H3 K27M-mutant diffuse midline glioma, an ultra-rare, aggressive brain tumor primarily affecting children.

From alveolar injury to extracellular matrix accumulation, the complex biology of pulmonary fibrosis is being unraveled alongside explorations of both Western and traditional Chinese therapies.

The Pennsylvania Act 1 of 2023 eligibility criteria for supplemental screenings based on breast density and lifetime risk of breast cancer disproportionately disqualify Black women from supplemental screenings despite their high risk of aggressive cancer and persistent history of false-negative mammograms.

Residents in historically redlined grade D areas were 1.67 times more likely to have no rapid access to EMS than in grade A areas, increasing their hazard risk of injury-related morbidity and mortality.

An inverse association between Alzheimer disease special care units in nursing homes and the percentage of Black residents within a facility was seen in a new study, but states with higher Medicaid payment-to-cost ratios did not show the same association.

Amy Paller, MD, pediatric dermatologist and clinical researcher at Northwestern Medicine's Feinberg School of Medicine, discussed the potential impact of reducing immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels in pediatric patients with atopic dermatitis.

Posters presented at the ASPC 2025 Congress on Cardiac Prevention showed the benefit of participating in cardiac rehabilitation for a variety of cardiac issues.

Black women had lower moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity scores when compared with Black and White men and their White female counterparts, highlighting the need for support across patient subgroups.

Janus kinase inhibitors can be paired with corticosteroids or used as monotherapy in the treatment of alopecia areata.
