Abstract Genetic tumor risk syndromes (genturis) contribute substantially to the overall cancer burden and provide opportunities for early detection, prevention, and individualized treatment. Yet, many affected individuals remain undiagnosed due to restrictive testing criteria and challenges in variant interpretation.

Living at genetic risk: The patient experience of Lynch syndrome
Abstract Lynch syndrome is a germline cancer predisposition syndrome caused by a variant in one of four genes. Lynch syndrome places individuals at significantly higher risk for a range of cancers, especially colorectal and endometrial. Depending on which gene is affected, the risk of ovarian, gastric, small bowel, pancreatic, biliary urothelial, brain,

Cumulative genetic risk for asthma contributes to disease severity in children with asthma
Background: Childhood-onset asthma is highly heritable, with nearly 200 risk loci identified in genome-wide association studies. Aggregated polygenic risk scores (PRSs) can be used to quantify genetic predisposition to asthma, but their power to predict ...

ABSTRACT Colorectal cancer (CRC) remains a leading cause of cancer‐related morbidity and mortality worldwide yet is largely preventable through effective screening and surveillance. While most CRC cases are sporadic, a substantial proportion occur in individuals at increased risk due to hereditary cancer syndromes or family history who require tailored

New‐Onset Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Cancer Risk: A Matched Cohort Study in China Kadoorie Biobank
ABSTRACT The prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is rising rapidly in China and is linked to increased cancer risk, but causality remains unclear due to biases. We examined the causal effect of T2DM on cancer risk using bias‐minimizing methods.

ABSTRACT Adjuvant nivolumab is approved for esophageal or gastroesophageal junction cancer after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy and resection. In the CheckMate‐577 trial, Grade 3–5 nivolumab‐related adverse events (AEs) occurred in 5% of patients, with early discontinuation due to toxicity in 9%. However, real‐world data on immunotherapy‐related adverse
