New approaches to divorce with children: A problem of public health.

This broad review elaborates on the most up-to-date knowledge on biochemical and psychobiological aspects of parental loss and other childhood adversities during divorce involving minor children. So far, divorce involving minor children was unfortunately considered by authorities only as a purely juridical problem, and this approach has often allowed a completely different approach according to the Courts. Now, scientific research, also making use of animal models, is demonstrating the biological basis of the problem and the indisputable consequences on the well-being and health of children. T

Judicialization of health: profile of demands for oncological medicines in a state in the central region of Brazil.

BACKGROUND: The significant increase in access to oncological medicines through court cases suggests that constitutional guarantees of integral and universal care in the Brazilian public health system are uncertain. METHODS: A retrospective observational study was conducted to analyze data from lawsuits requesting oncological medicines from 2014 to 2020 in the State of Goiás, Brazil, in state and federal courts. Sociodemographic, medical, and legal variables were statistically examined using descriptive, association, and correlation methods. RESULTS: Women brought more than half (54%) of the

Artificial Intelligence-Augmented Propensity Score, Cost Effectiveness and Computational Ethical Analysis of Cardiac Arrest and Active Cancer with Novel Mortality Predictive Score.

We performed the first known AI and propensity score (PS)-augmented clinical, cost-effectiveness, and computational ethical analysis of cardio-oncology cardiac arrests including left heart catheterization (LHC)-related mortality reduction and related disparities. Materials and methods: A nationally representative cohort analysis was performed for mortality and cost by active cancer using the largest United States all-payer inpatient dataset, the National Inpatient Sample,

Postoperative cognitive dysfunction: spotlight on light, circadian rhythms, and sleep.

Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a neurological disorder characterized by the emergence of cognitive impairment after surgery. A growing body of literature suggests that the onset of POCD is closely tied to circadian rhythm disruption (CRD). Circadian rhythms are patterns of behavioral and physiological change that repeat themselves at approximately, but not exactly, every 24 h. They are entrained to the 24 h day by the daily light-dark cycle. Postoperative CRD affects cognitive function likely by disrupting sleep architecture, which in turn provokes a host of pathological process

Global health burdens of plastics: a lifecycle assessment model from 2016 to 2040.

BackgroundQuantifying human health impacts throughout plastics lifecycles can inform global action against pollution that promotes sustainability across environmental, economic, and health concerns.MethodsWe combined material flow analysis, using the Plastics-to-Ocean model, with lifecycle assessment (LCA) to quantitatively compare disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) associated with plastics lifecycles, under different global consumption and waste management scenarios between 2016 and 2040. We estimated global health effects of greenhouse gases, particulate matter, and specific chemical emi

Health Equity Among Black Women in the United States.

Black women in the United States have experienced substantial improvements in health during the last century, yet health disparities persist. These health disparities are in large part a reflection of the inequalities experienced by Black women on a host of social and economic measures. In this paper, we examine the structural contributors to social and economic conditions that create the landscape for persistent health inequities among Black women. Demographic measures related to the health status and health (in)equity of Black women are reviewed. Current rates of specific physical and mental

Global ethylene oxide uses in foods and considerations for food safety.

Ethylene oxide (EtO) is a sterilant widely used for medical devices, but its use is controversial due to its carcinogenicity. In some countries, EtO is also used to fumigate food to eliminate foodborne pathogens, though this practice is banned in others. National regulations on EtO use in food vary widely; exporting countries prioritize trade facilitation and prevention of foodborne illness, while importing countries emphasize maintaining food safety and promoting domestic public health. These divergent public health priorities present challenges to establishing universal maximum residue limit

The Clinical Use of Stem Cell Research in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: A Critical Analysis of Current Policies.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a disorder affecting more than 200 million people around the world, resulting in three million deaths per year. COPD is characterized by the loss of lung tissue and airway remodelling, with chronic inflammation of the airways and progressive destruction of lung parenchyma. The use of stem cells may lead to regenerative processes that address biological damage. However, this approach raises ethical issues that need to be considered in clinical trials using stem cell therapy, such as informed consent, patient recruitment and harm minimization, as w

Euthanasia as a safeguard for living: Anticipation and incurable cancer in a Colombian context.

This article builds on years of ethnographic conversations I sustained with my father, 89, who lives in Colombia. Soon after getting diagnosed with an incurable Multiple Myeloma-a cancer known for unleashing prolonged and painful agonies-he withdrew from oncology treatments and secured access to euthanasia (assisted-dying) on his own, bypassing medico-insurance guidelines created to regulate this medical practice and prevent abuses. Eight years after withdrawing treatments, my dad is still alive. His case shines a light on how securing access to euthanasia may have had unintended therapeutic e

Токсичность тяжелых металлов в клиническом и экологическом здравоохранении: источники, механизмы, диагностика и научно обоснованное управление ртутью, свинцом, кадмием и арсеником.

Тяжелые металлы, включая ртуть (Hg), свинец (Pb), кадмий (Cd) и мышьяк (As), по-прежнему остаются значительными глобальными токсинами в силу их экологической стойкости, широкомасштабного антропогенного высвобождения и серьезного биологического воздействия. Этот обзор укрепляет нынешнее понимание их природных и промышленных источников, круговорота окружающей среды, маршрутов воздействия на человека и факторов уязвимости на уровне населения. Она охватывает их токсикокинетику и токсикодинамику, делая акцент на специфических для каждого вида механизмах поглощения, распределения и травмирования, вк

Cancer status in the Occupied Palestinian Territories: types; incidence; mortality; sex, age, and geography distribution; and possible causes.

Cancer is a disease in which some cells of the body grow uncontrollably and occasionally spread to other parts of the body. With a group of more than 100 different types, cancer can start almost anywhere in the body. Defective cells may form a mass called a tumor which can be cancerous (malignant), which grows and spreads to other parts of the body, or benign that can grow but not spread throughout the body. In 2021, more than 10 million people died of cancer worldwide (1 out of 6 deaths). This paper has thoroughly investigated the cancer status in the Occupied Palestinian Territories (OPT), i

Circadian rhythm-guided cellular therapy in hematologic malignancies: mechanisms, clinical evidence, and optimization strategies.

Circadian rhythms are endogenous 24-hour timing systems that coordinate hematopoiesis and immune function through central and peripheral clocks. Increasing evidence indicates that the initiation and progression of hematologic malignancies are frequently accompanied by circadian disruption, which not only contributes to malignant transformation and disease progression but also anti-tumor immunity and variable treatment responses. Cellular therapies, particularly hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy (CAR-T), have emerged as transformative mo

Mortality and morbidity in populations in the vicinity of coal mining: a systematic review.

BACKGROUND: Evidence of the association of coal mining with health outcomes such as increased mortality and morbidity in the general population has been provided by epidemiological studies in the last 25 years. Given the diverse sources of data included to investigate different health outcomes in the exposed populations, the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) can be used as a single classification standard to compare the findings of studies conducted in different socioeconomic and geographic contexts. The ICD classifies diagnoses of diseases and other disorders as codes organized b

Nanotechnology in Lung Cancer Therapeutics: A Narrative Review.

To date, cancer continues to be one of the biggest challenges for medical science. Nanotechnology has enabled us to overcome some of the limitations of conventional treatment in lung cancer therapeutics. Recently, US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved certain nanomedicines for clinical administration against lung cancer. This article presents a narrative review of approved nanomedicines in lung cancer with a special focus on the results of recently concluded and ongoing clinical trials. The limitations associated with using nanomaterials as anti-lung cancer therapeutic agents and

Multiple myeloma in Armenia during the period 2006-2018: facts and discussion.

BackgroundIt is known that one of the reasons for the increased incidence of hematological malignancies is caused by the growth of multiple myeloma (MM). Worldwide, approximately 159,985 new cases of MM are diagnosed representing 0.9% of all cancer diagnoses and 106,105 patients will die from MM accounting for 1.1% of all cancer deaths per year. Despite significant advances in the MM treatment the mortality rates are still high. The presented study is the first accurate epidemiological study of ММ in Armenia for the period of 2006-2018.MethodsThe initial data for this retrospective cohort surv

Cellular Senescence and Aging: Mechanisms, Disease Convergence, and Therapeutic Frontiers.

Cellular senescence, a stress-induced, irreversible cell cycle arrest coupled with a proinflammatory secretory phenotype, has emerged as both a central driver of aging and a tractable therapeutic target. Although acute senescence contributes beneficially to tumor suppression and wound healing, chronic accumulation of senescent cells sustains systemic inflammaging and accelerates organ dysfunction. This review synthesizes current progress in aging biology into a unified mechanistic and translational framework. We first examine how primary aging hallmarks, such as genomic instability and epigene
