Artículos CientíficosPor chigueras 30/09/2022

Objectives Our aim was to assess the value of nintedanib for non-idiopathic progressive fibrosing interstitial lung disease (non-IPF PF-ILD) and systemic sclerosis-associated ILD (SSc-ILD) in the Spanish context, using a multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA). Methods Following an adaptation of the Evidence and Value: Impact on DEcision Making (EVIDEM) MCDA methodology, the estimated value of nintedanib…

Sweetened beverages are associated with a higher risk of differentiated thyroid cancer in the EPIC cohort: a dietary pattern approach

Artículos Científicos, Cáncer, Investigación, Mujeres EASPPor chigueras 29/09/2022

Background Dietary pattern analysis has gained particular interest, because it reflects the complexity of dietary intake. The aim of this study was to explore the associations between a posteriori dietary patterns, derived using a data-driven approach, and the risk of differentiated thyroid cancer (TC) in Europe. Methods This investigation included 450,064 adults from the European…

Health-related quality of life of X-linked hypophosphatemia in Spain

Artículos Científicos, InvestigaciónPor chigueras 29/09/2022

Background Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of patients with X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is lower than that of both the general population and the patients with other chronic diseases, mainly due to diagnostic delay, treatment difficulties, poor psychosocial support, and problems with social integration. Early diagnosis and optimal treatment are paramount to control the disease in…

Cigarette Smoking and Endometrial Cancer Risk: Observational and Mendelian Randomization Analyses

Artículos Científicos, Cáncer, Investigación, Mujeres EASPPor chigueras 29/09/2022

Background: Current epidemiologic evidence indicates that smoking is associated with a lower endometrial cancer risk. However, it is unknown if this association is causal or confounded. To further elucidate the role of smoking in endometrial cancer risk, we conducted complementary observational and Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses. Methods: The observational analyses included 286,415 participants enrolled in…

Eficacia del Servicio de Asistencia en Nuevos Medicamentos para mejorar su adherencia en pacientes con enfermedades crónicas en farmacias comunitarias españolas: protocolo de un ensayo pragmático aleatorizado

Artículos Científicos, InvestigaciónPor chigueras 29/09/2022

Introducción: La falta de adherencia a los medicamentos es uno de los desafíos a los que se enfrentan los sistemas de salud. Los pacientes con mala adherencia al tratamiento no se benefician de la eficacia de la medicación, lo que se asocia con peor calidad de vida, aumento en hospitalizaciones y muertes y, en consecuencia,…

Dietary Patterns and Prostate Cancer: CAPLIFE Study

Cáncer, Investigación, Mujeres EASPPor chigueras 29/09/2022

The etiology of prostate cancer (PCa) remains uncertain, and the role of diet is unclear. We aimed to evaluate the role of diet, through dietary patterns, on PCa, considering tumor aggressiveness and extension. The CAPLIFE study is a population-based case-control study including a total of 428 incident PCa cases and 393 controls aged 40–80 years.…

Bias in algorithms of AI systems developed for COVID-19: A scoping review

Artículos Científicos, Igualdad, Investigación, Mujeres EASPPor chigueras 25/07/2022

To analyze which ethically relevant biases have been identified by academic literature in artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms developed either for patient risk prediction and triage, or for contact tracing to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, to specifically investigate whether the role of social determinants of health (SDOH) have been considered in these AI developments…

Circulating Isovalerylcarnitine and Lung Cancer Risk: Evidence from Mendelian Randomization and Pre-Diagnostic Blood Measurements

Artículos CientíficosPor chigueras 19/07/2022

Background: Tobacco exposure causes 8 of 10 lung cancers, and identifying additional risk factors is challenging due to confounding introduced by smoking in traditional observational studies. Materials and Methods: We used Mendelian randomization (MR) to screen 207 metabolites for their role in lung cancer predisposition using independent genome-wide-association studies (GWAS) of blood metabolite levels (n…
