Nationwide Study on the Cervical Cancer Screening Pathway in Estonia
Cervical cancer remains a significant burden despite being preventable, largely due to inadequate screening participation and poor follow‐up of high‐risk women. Here, the authors investigated follow‐up rates among women who tested positive for high‐risk human papillomavirus (hr‐HPV) infection in primary screening in Estonia. Data show that more than 57

Neoadjuvant endocrine therapy (NET) can help prevent metastases and improve survival in patients with hormone receptor‐positive (HR+) breast cancer. Identifying which HR+ patients will benefit from NET, however, remains challenging. Here, in a patient cohort in the Netherlands, the authors evaluated tumor‐stroma ratio (TSR) and magnetic resonance ...

Association of Childhood Acute Leukemia With Autoimmune Diseases
A possible link exists between various pediatric autoimmune diseases (AIDs) and increased risk of childhood leukemia. Although immune dysregulation is a key feature of these conditions, the connection between them remains unclear. In this study, using cancer registry data in Finland, the authors examined associations between AIDs and childhood acute ...

Uncertainty has persisted over whether human papillomavirus (HPV) testing outperforms high‐quality cytology in real‐world cervical cancer screening programs. To address this, Denmark launched a nationwide trial in 2021, implementing an HPV‐based screening strategy using specialized algorithms integrated with molecular and cytology triage to optimize ...
