Extralevator Abdominoperineal Excision Improves Overall Survival Compared to Standard Abdominoperineal Excision: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This systematic review and meta‐analysis of 38 studies, encompassing over 5000 patients, compared extralevator abdominoperineal excision (ELAPE) with standard abdominoperineal excision (APE) in patients with advanced low rectal cancer. ELAPE was associated with significantly improved overall and disease‐free survival, reduced intraoperative perforation

Intensive Chemotherapy With or Without Midostaurin in Adults ≥ 60 Years Old With FLT3‐Mutated AML: A FILO‐DATAML‐PETHEMA Real‐World Study

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The addition of midostaurin (MIDO) to intensive chemotherapy (IC) improves survival in younger adults with FLT3‐mutated acute myeloid leukemia (AML); however, real‐world data in elderly patients (≥ 60 years) are limited. This large, retrospective, multicenter study from three European registries (PETHEMA, FILO, DATAML) evaluated MIDO+IC (n ...

Healthcare Resource Utilization and Cost After Temperature‐Controlled Radiofrequency Treatment of Nasal Airway Obstruction: A Real‐World Longitudinal Claims Analysis

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Nasal airway obstruction (NAO) is prevalent with substantial health and quality of life burdens. Nasal valve collapse (NVC) is one structural cause of NAO. Temperature‐controlled radiofrequency (TCRF) nasal valve remodeling offers an alternative to invasive surgery.
