Association of cancer antigen 15-3 with distant recurrence in immunohistochemically defined breast cancer subtypes in Canadian Cancer Trials Group MA.32.
BACKGROUND: Circulating levels of cancer antigen (CA) 15-3 have been associated with distant breast cancer recurrence; data on breast cancer subtypes are sparse. We examined associations of CA 15-3 with outcomes across immunohistochemically defined breast cancer subtypes in MA.32. METHODS: A total of 3649 participants with T1-3, N0-1, M0 breast cancer were randomly assigned; 2740 (75.1%) provided blood at entry (mean = 278 days postdiagnosis) and 6 months later. Prognostic associations of baseline and 6-month change in CA 15-3 with distant recurrence-free survival (RFS) were examined in luminal (estrogen receptor-positive and/or progesterone receptor-positive, HER2-negative), triple-negative (estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, HER2 negative) and HER2-positive (any estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor) breast cancer using Cox proportional hazards models. RESULTS: Mean age was 52 years. Breast cancer was luminal in 1589 (58.7%), triple negative in 655 (24.2%), and HER2 positive in 464 (17.1%) participants. Median follow-up was 96 months. CA 15-3 at study entry was not associated with outcome in any subtype. Rising CA 15-3 at 6 months was associated with poor distant RFS in luminal and triple-negative breast cancer (hazard ratio [HR] per 25% increase = 1.41, P < .0001, and HR = 1.35, P < .0001, respectively). New elevations in CA 15-3 at 6 months were adversely associated with distant RFS in those with luminal or triple-negative breast cancer (HR = 4.14, 95% CI = 2.69 to 6.38; P < .001; and HR = 3.57, 95% CI = 1.59 to 7.99; P = .002, respectively). In HER2-positive breast cancer, CA15-3 was not associated with distant RFS. CONCLUSION: Rising CA 15-3 was associated with reduced distant RFS in luminal and triple-negative breast cancer but not in HER2-positive breast cancer. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT01101438.

Predictive value of anal sphincter electromyography for sacral neuromodulation test-phase outcomes.
BACKGROUND: Sacral neuromodulation (SNM) is an established therapy for refractory pelvic organ dysfunction. Anal sphincter electromyography (EMG) is commonly used preoperatively to assess sacral and peripheral nerve integrity. However, the prognostic significance of chronic neurogenic EMG changes for SNM outcomes remains unclear. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate whether chronic neurogenic changes on preoperative anal sphincter EMG predict the outcome of the SNM test phase. METHODS: We retrospectively analysed 62 consecutive patients with bladder and/or bowel dysfunction or pelvic pain who were candidates for SNM treatment and who underwent preoperative anal sphincter EMG. EMG findings were classified as normal or showing chronic neurogenic changes. SNM test-phase success was defined as a ≥50% improvement of symptoms at 24 days. Outcomes were compared between EMG groups. RESULTS: Of the 62 patients (49 women, 13 men), 30 (48%) had normal EMG findings and 32 (52%) showed chronic neurogenic changes. Overall, the SNM test phase was successful in 47 patients (76%). Success rates were similar in patients with normal EMG (72%) and neurogenic EMG changes (79%), with no statistically significant difference (p = 0.878). Sex-stratified analyses revealed no significant association between EMG findings and test-phase success in women or men. CONCLUSIONS: Chronic neurogenic changes on anal sphincter EMG do not predict SNM test-phase outcomes. These findings suggest that abnormal sphincter EMG results should not be used as a standalone criterion to exclude patients from SNM therapy. SIGNIFICANCE: Signs of neurogenic damage on anal sphincter EMG are not an indicator of reduced neuromodulatory capacity or diminished clinical response to SNM.

Precision Oncology in Hepatopancreatobiliary Cancer Surgery.
Advances in technology have allowed for the characterization of tumors at the genomic, transcriptomic, and proteomic levels. There are well-established targets for biliary tract cancers, with exciting new targets emerging in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and potential targets in hepatocellular carcinoma. Taken together, these data suggest an important role for molecular profiling for personalizing cancer therapy in advanced disease and need for design of novel neoadjuvant studies to leverage these novel therapeutics perioperatively in the surgical patient.

A qualitative study of cancer survivors' exercise behaviour 4 months after a telerehabilitation program.
PURPOSE: Although telerehabilitation can improve access to exercise programs for cancer survivors, it is not known if these programs lead to ongoing change in exercise habits. This study explored participant experiences of exercise 4 months after finishing specialized cancer exercise-based telerehabilitation. METHOD: A qualitative study embedded in a randomized controlled trial evaluated exercise-based cancer telerehabilitation delivered in groups. Data were collected via semistructured interviews that were audio-recorded and transcribed verbatim. Seventeen adult cancer survivors (age 21 to 80) were purposively sampled 4 months after completing exercise-based cancer telerehabilitation. Data were coded independently by two researchers and analyzed inductively within an interpretive description framework. RESULTS: The overarching theme was telerehabilitation was perceived to facilitate positive exercise intentions. Participants said they were empowered to exercise through knowledge, opportunity, and connection gained through telerehabilitation. They described acting on their positive intentions to exercise to varying degrees following telerehabilitation, depending on their context. A subtheme was that exercise was challenging in their new reality created by cancer. Comorbidities, ongoing side effects, previous exercise experience, and personal factors were considered by some to influence their ability to exercise. CONCLUSION: Telerehabilitation may facilitate positive intent to maintain exercise. Cancer survivors may need ongoing support after telerehabilitation to act on positive exercise intentions due to health-related difficulties. IMPLICATIONS FOR CANCER SURVIVORS: Participation in telerehabilitation may be a positive first step to initiate exercise, but ongoing support to maintain positive behavior changes is likely to be needed for people without previous exercise experience.

Exercise for the mitigation of cancer therapy-related cardiac dysfunction in breast cancer patients treated with anthracyclines: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
PURPOSE: Cancer therapy-related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD) is a significant concern for breast cancer patients undergoing anthracycline-based chemotherapy. Although exercise has been proposed as a cardioprotective strategy, existing reviews have largely examined heterogeneous cancer populations receiving varied treatments, leaving a gap in the evidence base focused exclusively on anthracycline-induced CTRCD. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to address that gap by evaluating the effects of long-term exercise on key CTRCD markers in breast cancer patients treated exclusively with anthracyclines. METHODS: A comprehensive search of PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and Web of Science was conducted for randomized controlled trials including breast cancer patients undergoing anthracycline-based chemotherapy, receiving long-term exercise interventions (≥ 12 weeks, ≥ 1 session/week) compared to usual cancer care, and reporting at least one of the following outcomes: left ventricular ejection fraction, global longitudinal strain, cardiac troponin I, cardiac troponin T, or N-terminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide. RESULTS: Six randomized controlled trials involving 360 participants were included. Exercise significantly attenuated cardiac troponin I elevation compared to controls (SMD = -0.50; 95% CI, -0.93 to -0.06; p = 0.02). No statistically significant between-group differences were observed for left ventricular ejection fraction, global longitudinal strain, cardiac troponin T, or N-terminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide. CONCLUSION: The cardioprotective role of exercise during anthracycline treatment remains uncertain, though the attenuation of cardiac troponin I elevation suggests a potential protective signal warranting further investigation through larger, standardized trials employing advanced assessment modalities and longer follow-up periods.

Cancer statistics for Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander people, 2026.
BACKGROUND: Cancer statistics for Asian American and Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander (NHPI) people are usually aggregated, masking substantial variation within this heterogeneous population. Herein, the American Cancer Society reports cancer incidence and survival for 8 Asian American and 3 NHPI ethnic groups. METHODS: The authors used population-based cancer registry data from the National Cancer Institute's Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results program, for Asian American and NHPI ethnic groups from 2000 through 2022. RESULTS: During 2018-2022, overall cancer incidence ranged from 218.3 per 100,000 Kampuchean people to 474.5 per 100,000 Native Hawaiian people, which was 1.5 times higher than the rate for the aggregated Asian American and NHPI population (307.3 per 100,000). High incidence among Native Hawaiian people is largely driven by the highest rates of female breast, colorectal, and prostate cancers, whereas infection-related cancers were highest among Asian American ethnic groups. For example, liver and stomach cancer incidence is highest among Vietnamese (22.2 per 100,000) and Korean people (17.8 per 100,000), respectively, both of which were nearly twice that in Native Hawaiian people (12.9 and 9.6 per 100,000, respectively). Native Hawaiian and Samoan women are twice and 3 times as likely, respectively, to be diagnosed with uterine corpus cancer as aggregated Asian American and NHPI women or White women. Five-year relative survival ranges from 42% in Laotians to 74% in Asian Indians/Pakistanis, with largest differences for colorectal (43% in Laotians to 72% in Asian Indians/Pakistanis) and prostate (63% in Kampucheans to 97% in Japanese) cancers. CONCLUSIONS: Wide variation in cancer risk within the Asian American and NHPI population highlights the critical need for disaggregated data to effectively target cancer prevention and control interventions.

From human papillomavirus (HPV) infection to HPV-associated cancers in systemic lupus erythematosus: A systematic review and Meta-analysis.
OBJECTIVE: The current cervix-focused screening paradigm in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) may underestimate extra-cervical anogenital cancer risk. This meta-analysis aimed to quantify the risk of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and HPV-associated cancers in SLE patients. METHODS: A comprehensive search was conducted in PubMed (2010), Embase (2010), and Cochrane Library (2010) to August 8, 2025. Odds Ratios (ORs) and Standardized Incidence Ratios (SIRs) with 95% Confidence Intervals (CIs) were calculated. The study protocol was registered with PROSPERO (CRD420251122192). RESULTS: SLE was associated with significantly increased odds of HPV infection (OR = 4.12, 95% CI 2.03, 8.32). We further assessed the risk of HPV-associated malignancies in SLE patients. SLE patients exhibited substantially elevated risks across multiple HPV-associated cancers (SIR = 1.90, 95% CI 1.51, 2.38). The risk of cervical cancer was more than doubled (SIR = 2.25, 95% CI 1.75, 2.89). Notably, even higher risks were observed for extra-cervical anogenital cancers, namely vulvar/vaginal cancers (SIR = 5.60, 95% CI 3.71, 8.43). CONCLUSIONS: SLE is associated with elevated risks of HPV infection and a broad spectrum of HPV-associated cancers. Subgroup analyses suggested that cyclophosphamide use, multiple sexual partners, and Asian populations may constitute higher-risk subgroups. These findings highlight the need for additional prospective evidence to better characterize HPV-associated cancer risks in SLE patients.

Liver Cancer Risk and Incidence Attributable to Human Immunodeficiency Virus: A Meta-Analysis and Population-Attributable Modeling Study of Over 1.2 Million Individuals.
HIV-induced immune suppression and chronic inflammation elevate the risk of cancer progression. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies published between January 1, 1984 and October 13, 2023 to assess the association between HIV infection and liver cancer. People living with HIV (PLHIV) had a higher risk (pooled relative risk = 3.36, 95% CI: 2.72-4.15). The global PAF for HIV-attributed liver cancer was 1.43% in 2019, with a three-fold increase over the past 30 years. The Asia-Pacific region recorded the second highest new cases of HIV-attributed liver cancer in 2019, and the highest age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR) in Eastern and Southern Africa. Particularly, the ASIR of HIV-attributed liver cancer increased rapidly in Eastern Europe and Central Asia, with the highest estimated annual percentage change reaching 22.98%. PLHIV have an increased risk and incidence of liver cancer. In regions with high burden of HIV-attributed liver cancer, it is essential to integrate prevention and effective treatment for HIV, viral hepatitis, alcoholic liver disease, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, and liver cancer.

Enhancing Self Care Among Oral Cancer Survivors Using a Digital Approach: The Empowered Survivor Trial.
BACKGROUND: Oral and oropharyngeal cancer survivors experience debilitating physical and psychosocial challenges. Little knowledge exists on the efficacy of interventions to enhance self-efficacy in managing these challenges, increase survivorship preparedness, and improve health-related quality of life (HRQoL). METHODS: Individuals (n = 643) diagnosed with oral or oropharyngeal cancer diagnosed within past 3 years were randomized to a digital intervention, Empowered Survivor (ES) or a Generic Online Intervention (GO). Primary (self-efficacy, preparedness, HRQoL) and secondary outcomes (self-care activities) were measured at Baseline, 2-months, and 6-months. RESULTS: Participants assigned to ES reported greater self-efficacy and increased self-care activities of oral self-exams, swallowing, and mobility exercises than those assigned to GO (self-efficacy: 2 months, p = 0.003, 6-months, p < 0.001; self-care activities). CONCLUSIONS: The ES enhanced self-efficacy and increased self-care activities. Further examinations of survivorship preparedness and HRQoL in oral and oropharyngeal cancer are warranted. TRIAL REGISTRATION: Registered on clinicaltrials. gov as NCT04713449.

Beyond risk factors: A capacity framework for cancer survivorship research.
Cancer survivorship research has identified numerous biological, behavioral, psychosocial, health care, and structural factors that influence recovery. However, these factors are typically studied as separate determinants rather than interacting influences. This commentary proposes available survivorship capacity as a unifying framework that explains how these diverse determinants collectively shape recovery and survivorship outcomes. Concepts from geroscience, health care delivery, rehabilitation, occupational therapy, and human factors science were synthesized to develop a conceptual framework of available survivorship capacity. The framework conceptualizes recovery as a function of the capacity remaining after competing health care and life demands draw upon survivors' finite physical, cognitive, emotional, social, financial, temporal, and health care resources. It generates testable propositions for measurement, intervention research, health care delivery, and implementation science while positioning available survivorship capacity as a common mechanism linking diverse determinants of recovery and identifying actionable targets for intervention. Available capacity offers a unifying conceptual framework for understanding heterogeneity in survivorship outcomes and intervention effectiveness while generating a research agenda for future survivorship science. Measuring and strengthening survivors' available capacity, while reducing unnecessary demands, may improve engagement in care, health behaviors, and long-term recovery.

Fundamentals of pacemakers ECG interpretation - part 2.
BACKGROUND: Modern pacemakers incorporate arrhythmia-response algorithms, ventricular pacing minimization protocols, and safety mechanisms that generate ECG patterns indistinguishable from pathological AV block, sensing malfunction, or device-mediated tachycardia. Failure to recognize these algorithm-driven signatures leads to unnecessary interventions, misdiagnosis, and inappropriate device reprogramming. This manuscript is the second in a two-part series on pacemaker ECG interpretation. METHODS: We conducted a narrative review of peer-reviewed literature and device-specific documentation on algorithm-driven ECG behavior, synthesizing evidence across arrhythmia recognition, upper rate physiology, ventricular pacing minimization, mode switching, safety mechanisms, and hysteresis algorithms. RESULTS: Pacemaker-mediated tachycardia produces regular paced wide-complex tachycardia locked at the upper tracking rate, initiated by any event with retrograde VA conduction. Ventricular tachycardia is identified by QRS morphology diverging from the known paced pattern, absent pacing spikes, and AV dissociation. Upper rate Wenckebach behavior mimics Mobitz type I AV block; 2:1 upper rate response mimics second-degree AV block. Ventricular pacing minimization algorithms produce isolated nonconducted P waves and prolonged AV intervals that simulate pathological conduction disease. Mode switching causes abrupt rate drops misidentified as output failure. Ventricular safety pacing generates a conspicuously short, fixed AV interval. Three discrete pacing artifacts reflect AV-sequential cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), ventricular safety pacing in CRT, or His-bundle pacing with backup RV output. Rate and AV hysteresis produce pauses and wandering AV intervals mimicking oversensing or Wenckebach periodicity. CONCLUSIONS: Recognizing algorithm-driven ECG patterns requires knowledge of device timing intervals and refractory periods, which lets clinicians distinguish programmed behavior from true malfunction or cardiac arrhythmia.

How prevalent is fear of cancer recurrence beyond 5 years: a systematic review of validated assessments across tumour types.
PURPOSE: Fear of cancer recurrence (FCR) is an established challenge for cancer survivors. Research however has largely focussed early in treatment, with varying assessments and often single tumour sites. This systematic review set out to determine prevalence of FCR in survivors beyond 5 years across all tumour types. METHOD: We designed a search strategy to identify publications assessing FCR in survivors beyond 5 years with sample size greater than 50, using validated measures. Applying PRISMA methodology and with defined inclusion and exclusion criteria two authors independently assessed the studies for eligibility. Data extraction recorded number of participants, tumour type, study design, FCR tool, time points for assessment and reported prevalence. Risk of bias was assessed to address quality. RESULTS: Ten papers were included, reporting FCR from 5 years to beyond 20 years. Validated tools employed were FCRI-SF and FOP-Q-SF. Sample sizes ranged from 64 to 5983 participants, with a heterogeneous mix of tumour types and age. Only two studies reported longitudinal measurements. Prevalence of FCR above defined threshold ranged from 13 to 33.9% for those studies with acceptable risk of bias reporting distinct cohorts beyond 5 years. CONCLUSION: The limited evidence suggests that clinically relevant FCR persists in some survivors at 5 years. Our review demonstrates the challenge of heterogeneous patient populations in FCR research emphasising the need for improved consensus on measurements and more prospective longitudinal research representing a comprehensive variety of tumour types. We address the clinical implications of persistent FCR and the need to implement effective interventions.

From buffalo to human: Klebsiella pneumoniae in high-somatic cell count milk as an overlooked link in the one health chain.
High somatic cell count (SCC) is a critical indicator of udder health and milk quality in buffalo milk production. However, in many low-income regions, SCC monitoring is often underemphasized, allowing a proportion of high-SCC buffalo milk to enter the food chain and potentially compromising food safety and public health. Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae) is a common zoonotic pathogen found in high-SCC milk, yet systematic investigations into the prevalence and characteristics in high-SCC buffalo milk remain limited. In this study, 23 K. pneumoniae strains were screened out from 460 bacterial isolates obtained from high-SCC buffalo milk samples from Guangxi, China, with an isolation rate of 5.0%. These isolates were comprehensively characterized using whole-genome sequencing and comparative genomic analyses. The results revealed that 78.26% (18/23) of the isolates shared high genomic similarity with the human reference strain ATCC 13883, and the ST37 clone exhibited a pronounced potential of cross-species transmission. All isolates harbored core adhesion factors and intrinsic resistance genes. Notably, several strains displayed high-risk features: strain 419 carried the K1 capsular serotype, strain 326 possessed a complete yersiniabactin synthesis gene cluster, and strain 320 exhibited a multidrug-resistant phenotype. Phenotypic assays further demonstrated a positive correlation between biofilm formation capacity and virulence in Galleria mellonella. Metabolic pathway enrichment analyses suggested that K. pneumoniae has undergone substantial adaptation to the nutrient-rich buffalo milk environment. Collectively, these findings confirm that raw high-SCC buffalo milk serves as a significant reservoir for high-risk zoonotic K. pneumoniae. While industrial thermal processing effectively eliminates viable pathogens, the resilient antimicrobial resistance determinants within these isolates pose a persistent risk of horizontal gene dissemination along the food chain, providing critical evidence for enhancing pre-processing milk quality regulations within a One Health framework.

Mining Stored-Specimen Studies for Information about Cancer Natural History.
The advent of new multicancer early detection tests and publication of early diagnostic results have generated expectations of clinical benefit from multicancer screening. The clinical benefit of a cancer screening test depends critically on disease natural history, which is typically learned from prospective screening studies. Retrospective studies of stored blood specimens are important in learning about a test's preclinical diagnostic performance but have rarely been used to infer natural history. The extent to which these studies might be harnessed to also learn natural history is discussed in the context of an article in this issue that infers the combined natural history of a range of cancers targeted by a multicancer early detection test using a case-control subsample of specimens from a large cohort study. The critical question concerns the identifiability of key transition rates in multistate models of natural history alongside state-specific sensitivities. The article suggests that these parameters are estimable within a Bayesian framework that leverages prior information about test sensitivity from diagnostic studies. We offer a heuristic discussion of identifiability in this setting and encourage formal study to determine the extent to which models with varying degrees of complexity may be learned from stored-specimen studies.

A Qualitative Analysis of Cancer Survivors' Experience in a Time-Restricted Eating vs Control Clinical Trial to Address Cancer-Related Fatigue.
PURPOSE: To describe cancer survivors' lived experiences in a clinical trial that tested an individualized nutrition counseling with or without time-restricted eating to address cancer-related fatigue. METHODS: The Fatigue REDuction After cancer study was a two-arm, randomized controlled trial. Participants were adult cancer survivors who were 2 months to 2 years post-treatment. All participants received individualized nutrition counseling; those in the time-restricted eating group self-selected a consistent 10-hour eating window for 12 weeks. After the study, semi-structured exit interviews were conducted to gauge participants' experiences in the trial. Interviews were transcribed and two independent coders thematically analyzed the interviews using inductive and deductive coding. NVivo software was used for data organization and analysis. RESULTS: Participants (n = 24; TRE = 11; Control = 13) were 55 ± 13 years old, 75% were female, and they had a variety of cancer types. The majority of participants found that being in the study helped them to set and achieve lifestyle goals and would therefore recommend the study to others. Participants in the time-restricted eating group noted that time-restricted eating helped them set a better routine, providing a positive sense of control. However, some noted difficulty switching to a 14-hour fasting schedule, as it can interfere with their regular routine or employment schedules. Many participants noted they were happy that cancer-related fatigue was gaining more attention, hoping to find solutions for persistent cancer-related fatigue. CONCLUSION: The majority of participants found the study useful and, regardless of their group assignment or the intervention's impact on their fatigue, found the study helped them to gain better control of their dietary habits.

Outcomes at rapid diagnostic centres and the association between non-specific symptoms and cancer: A systematic review and meta-analyses of up to 21,392 patients.
INTRODUCTION: Cancer remains a leading cause of mortality and poses a significant public health challenge. Several non-specific symptoms (NSSs) often indicate non-serious disease but can also accompany malignancy even in the absence of organ-specific signs. Therefore, the aim of the study was to comprehensively delineate the association between the most common NSSs (weight loss, fatigue, pain and nausea/appetite loss) and cancer or non-cancer diagnoses. METHODS: Database searches of PubMed and Embase were conducted applying search criteria to identify studies that investigated common NSSs in cancer patients diagnosed through rapid diagnostic centres (RDCs). The quality of the included studies was assessed using a modified Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS). For each symptom, pooled relative risks (RRs) with 95% confidence intervals were derived using random-effects meta-analysis. RESULTS: Eleven studies met the inclusion criteria. All studies were considered to be of high methodological quality. The most frequent disease locations for cancer entities included hematologic, lung and lower gastrointestinal. Together with miscellaneous, rheumatic, and musculoskeletal conditions, these were the most common for non-cancer diagnoses. Nausea/appetite loss showed a statistically significant association with cancer (RR=1.20, 95%-CI 1.07-1.35). Pain showed a non-significant association (RR=1.07, 95%-CI 0.75-1.53) with substantial between-study heterogeneity, and weight loss showed a non-significant inverse trend (RR=0.92, 95%-CI 0.84-1.02). Fatigue showed no association with cancer (RR=1.00, 95%-CI 0.85-1.18). DISCUSSION/CONCLUSION: NSSs may be valuable for cancer risk assessment, but the associations remain modest. The complexity of patients' clinical presentations suggests that additional factors likely influence the cancer risk. Future research should examine symptom combinations and, where data allow, perform subgroup analyses.
