Primary Cancer Prevention Through Vaccination: Advances, Challenges, and Global Perspectives

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Oncogenic viral and bacterial infections constitute a significant portion of the global cancer burden, accounting for up to 15% of cases, particularly in low‐ and middle‐income countries. Prophylactic vaccination thus appears to be the most effective tool for preventing these preventable cancers, especially those linked to human papillomavirus

Peripheral T‐Cell Lymphomas in Southern Taiwan: Epidemiology, Treatment Patterns, and Long‐Term Outcomes

eJHaem, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Peripheral T‐cell lymphomas (PTCLs) are heterogeneous neoplasms with poor prognosis and marked geographic variation. Data from Taiwan remain limited. We conducted a 15‐year retrospective cohort study of 249 patients diagnosed with PTCL at two major centers in southern Taiwan between 2010 and 2024 to characterize regional epidemiology, real ...
