Compliance With NICE Guidance for Cervical Spine Trauma Imaging: A Single Centre Retrospective Evaluation

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This study found that only two‐thirds of patients were managed in accordance with national guidance for C‐spine trauma, with younger patients more likely to have X‐rays rather than CT. Inappropriate imaging carries radiation dose implications and delays in care with subsequent risks, particularly where immobilisation is utilised.

Prevention of Early Onset of Breast Cancer With Ashwagandha

open access: yesMolecular Carcinogenesis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Prevention of breast cancer is feasible because many risk factors for this malignancy are known (e.g., family history, reproductive factors, etc.). Medicinal plants and/or their bioactive phytochemicals are attractive for the prevention of early onset of breast cancer due to their generally favorable safety profile.
