This study aimed to develop and validate a risk score for early prediction of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients with lung cancer.
Risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) is elevated in cancer, but individual risk factors cannot identify a sufficiently high-risk group of outpatients for thromboprophylaxis. We developed a simple model for predicting chemotherapy-associated VTE using baseline clinical and laboratory variables.
Objective: To map and assess prognostic models for outcome prediction in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
The twelve recommendations are intended to advise physicians on the use of imaging modalities when making a clinical diagnosis, and when to apply imaging for monitoring of disease activity and damage.
Background: Alopecia areata (AA) is an autoimmune disease typified by nonscarring hair loss with a variable clinical course. Although there is an increased understanding of AA pathogenesis and progress in its treatments, the outcome of AA patients remains unfavorable, especially when they are progressing to the subtypes of alopecia totalis (AT) or alopecia universalis (AU).
Background: The safety and efficacy of doravirine were compared with that of efavirenz as initial treatment of adults living with HIV-1 infection.
