Choosing the optimal HPV vaccine: The health impact and economic value of the nonavalent and bivalent HPV vaccines in 48 Gavi‐eligible countries
The nonavalent human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine has generally been considered to confer enough additional benefit to warrant a higher price. However, most previous analyses did not fully consider p…
Urine steroid metabolomics for the differential diagnosis of adrenal incidentalomas in the EURINE-ACT study: a prospective test validation study
An unenhanced CT tumour attenuation cutoff of 20 HU should replace that of 10 HU for exclusion of ACC. A triple test strategy of tumour diameter, imaging characteristics, and urine steroid metabolomics improves detection of ACC, which could shorten time to surgery for patients with ACC and help to avoid unnecessary surgery in patients with benign tumours.
A multi-test strategy for adrenal tumours
Broadening access to technology and its rapid evolution have transformed clinical care over the past half century. CT and MRI became widely available around 1980, and performance has steadily improved since. Incidental adrenal nodules were detected in only 0·4% of patients undergoing CT scans in the mid to late 1980s, but cross-sectional imaging studies now detect adrenal incidentalomas at least…
What are the perceptions of runners and healthcare professionals on footwear and running injury risk?
Objectives There is a gap in research exploring perceptions of runners and healthcare professionals (HCPs) about running footwear and injury risk. The objectives of this study were: (1) to document factors considered by runners when selecting footwear; (2) to compare perceptions on footwear and injury risk in runners and HCPs; and (3) to evaluate the perceived usefulness of an online educational…
