Active surveillance and trajectories of decision-making among patients with low-risk prostate cancer

This study examines factors associated with active surveillance (AS) uptake, timing of treatment decision making, and whether timing affects quality of life. Methods We used data from a population-based observational study of 512 patients aged 40–79 diagnosed with low-risk prostate cancer from 2016 to 2022.

Engaging Mentor Mothers in Rapid Return of Viral Load Results to Pregnant and Postpartum Women Living with HIV
In Kenya, the primary driver of perinatal HIV transmission is disengagement from care. Virologic monitoring can reinforce adherence and enable timely intervention, yet results are often delayed. Among pregnant (≥ 27 weeks) and postpartum (≤ 6 months) women in HIV care in Kisumu Kenya, we conducted a pilot study in which Mentor Mothers (peer support) returned viral load results (GeneXpert) after a clinic visit between June-December 2023. We assess…

These results suggest the viability of tobacco sales bans as an effective tobacco control strategy
