Public health, public protest: The role of health burdens and healthcare access in protest mobilisation.

Health and politics are intertwined, yet few studies have examined the association between health and protest. This study examined whether population health burdens were associated with protest incidence and whether healthcare access modified these associations. Analysis was based on an unbalanced 2004-2023 country-year panel, combining protest counts from ACLED with rates for 22 GBD causes. Mixed-effects negative-binomial models estimated incidence-rate ratios (IRRs) with interactions for healthcare access (±1 SD). Two-way fixed-effects Poisson models were estimated as a benchmark to distinguish cross-national associations from within-country dynamics. Health burdens were systematically, but heterogeneously, associated with protest. Rates for several non-communicable burdens were associated with protest, notably musculoskeletal disorders (IRR 1.72, 95% CI 1.37-2.15), neoplasms (1.24, 1.06-1.44), substance-use disorders (1.32, 1.12-1.56) and HIV/AIDS and other STIs (1.24, 1.12-1.38). Higher healthcare access generally attenuated health-protest associations. Fixed-effects models confirmed several associations (e.g. HIV/AIDS, neoplasms) but revealed that others (e.g. maternal/neonatal disorders, enteric infections) were driven primarily by cross-national differences. Population health burdens were associated with cross-national variation in protest mobilisation. Chronic, non-communicable burdens were associated with heightened protest, whereas poverty-linked and early-life burdens were associated with lower mobilisation. Healthcare access was associated with attenuation of these relationships.

Long-term outcomes of non-operative compared to operative management of acute uncomplicated appendicitis - a systematic review and meta-analysis.

BACKGROUND: We evaluated long-term outcomes of non-operative management (NOM) versus surgical management of acute uncomplicated appendicitis. METHODS: Systematic review of studies comparing NOM versus surgery with ≥2 years follow-up. Primary outcome was long-term failure rate. RESULTS: 9/1635 studies were included (3 RCTs; 6 non-RCT studies), involving 3883 patients; 5 were in pediatric populations. Median follow-up was 33.6 (range 24-312) months. NOM pooled long-term failure rate was 38.9% (95% CI: 31.1%-46.7%), increasing to 44.4% (95% CI: 41.4%-47.4%) in RCTs. Pooled appendectomy rate after NOM was 36.3% (95% CI: 28.9%-43.7%). Incidence of appendiceal neoplasms was approximately 0.3%. Non-operative management had cost savings of €1535 (95% CI: -€1892 to -€1178) versus surgery. CONCLUSIONS: NOM of acute uncomplicated appendicitis was associated with high long-term failure rates and significant risk of subsequent appendectomy.

Efficacy and safety of Ruxolitinib-based combination therapy in the patients with Myelofibrosis (MF): a systematic review and meta-analysis.

BACKGROUND: Myelofibrosis (MF) is a chronic myeloproliferative neoplasm. Although Ruxolitinib, a JAK1/2 inhibitor, remains the cornerstone of MF treatment, it does not reverse disease progression, and resistance frequently emerges. These limitations have prompted investigation into combination therapies targeting pathways beyond the JAK-STAT axis. This meta-analysis aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Ruxolitinib-based combination therapies in patients with MF. METHODS: We conducted a systematic search of databases for studies published through August 1, 2025. Thirteen distinct Ruxolitinib-based combination regimens were included. Primary efficacy endpoints were ≥35% spleen volume reduction at 24 weeks (SVR35) and ≥50% reduction in total symptom score (TSS50). Safety endpoints focused on the incidence of grade 3/4 thrombocytopenia and anemia. Subgroup analyses were performed based on prior JAK inhibitor exposure and therapeutic mechanism of action. RESULTS: A total of 19 studies comprising 1,088 patients were included in the meta-analysis. Among JAK inhibitor-naïve patients, the combination of Ruxolitinib with Selinexor demonstrated the highest efficacy (SVR35: 92%; TSS50: 78%), followed by Ruxolitinib plus BMS-986158 (SVR35: 90%). For patients with prior JAK inhibitor exposure, Ruxolitinib plus Siremadlin (SVR35: 45%) showed notable activity. CONCLUSION: For JAK inhibitor-naïve patients, Ruxolitinib-based combination regimens demonstrated satisfactory clinical responses and the potential for meaningful disease control. For patients with prior JAK inhibitor exposure, the addition of combination therapy drugs may further enhance the efficacy. Personalized treatment selection remains essential, as therapeutic efficacy is significantly influenced by prior JAK inhibitor exposure.
