In 120 patients receiving postmastectomy radiotherapy, each irradiated chest wall was divided into medial and lateral halves, which were randomised to Mepitel Film or StrataXRT. Mepitel Film reduced grade 2–3 acute radiation dermatitis and clinician‐assessed erythema and moist desquamation over time.

Rectal spacers composed of stabilised hyaluronic acid facilitated a favourable toxicity profile compared to no spacing during prostate radiation therapy. Acute GI toxicity (grade ≥ 1) was lower in the spacer cohort (23.5% vs. 48.0%; odds ratio = 0.33, p = 0.05) with grade ≥ 2 toxicity substantially lower (2.9% vs. 20.0%).

Abstract Chronic pain frequently co‐occurs with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). One theory proposes that some chronic pain may reflect pain reexperiencing (i.e., reactivation of somatosensory trauma memories). Although some research supports this theory, evidence from clinical survey studies is limited and methodologically constrained.
