Cost‐effectiveness analysis of human papillomavirus (HPV) genotyping strategies for management of HPV‐positive women in cervical cancer screening

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Persistent infection with high‐risk human papillomavirus (HPV) causes most invasive cervical cancer cases, leading many countries to transition from cytology to primary HPV‐based screening. Despite the benefits, HPV‐based screening may also lead to unnecessary procedures, psychological burden, and strain on healthcare systems.

Small Nucleotide Variant Analysis Using RNA Fusion Panel (SMURF): Making the Most of RNAseq Data in Solid Tumours

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
RNA‐based fusion panels using targeted next‐generation sequencing of formalin‐fixed paraffin‐embedded (FFPE) tumour tissue specimens have been used for a few years from patients with various tumour types to detect rearrangements/fusions. Using the bioinformatic approaches the data obtained from RNA sequencing (RNAseq) can also be used for small ...

Impact of remote biometric sensing on readmission risk and mortality after hospital discharge: Insights from a Systematic Review and meta‐analysis

Journal of Hospital Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Unplanned hospital readmissions are associated with higher morbidity, mortality, and financial burden. This study evaluated the association between the use of remote biometric sensing devices (RBS) and all‐cause readmission and mortality rates among adult patients discharged from the hospital.
