Addressing the reluctance of patients clinically diagnosed with leukoplakia and reinforcing the importance of follow-up care is imperative. The study aims to assess the impact of patient information leaflets (PILs) and habit cessation counseling (HCC) on clinically diagnosed patients with leukoplakia.Materials and methods: The study included 60 clinically diagnosed cases of leukoplakia and was divided into 3 groups (20 participants each). Group 1 received an expert-designed PIL, group 2 had HCC, and group 3 received both PILs and HCC. All groups underwent follow-up assessments, including lesion reexamination and a structured questionnaire.Results: Group 3 demonstrated the highest level of understanding and application of the information, as reflected in both their attitude and practice toward their habits, and group 2 did better than group 1.Conclusion: The combination of a PIL and an HCC can effectively support reluctant patients with leukoplakia, fostering habit cessation and promoting lifestyle modifications through increased awareness.","PeriodicalId":51147,"journal":{"name":"Oncology-New York","volume":"39 8","pages":"344-349"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145151828","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This commentary reviews insights from Dorry L. Segev's, MD, PhD, keynote lecture at MedNews Week, highlighting reduced vaccine efficacy, prolonged viral shedding, and increased severity of COVID-19 in this population. Emerging strategies such as monoclonal antibody prophylaxis, oral antivirals, personalized vaccine approaches, and T cell-based therapies show promise in mitigating these risks. Additionally, the commentary discusses the implications of hybrid immunity and the potential for within-host viral evolution to generate resistant variants, underscoring the need for targeted genomic surveillance. Ethical considerations are raised regarding the use of advanced oncologic treatments with marginal survival benefits but substantial toxicity in the context of COVID-19 vulnerability. To effectively protect immunocompromised patients, tailored public health measures, dedicated vaccination programs, and integrative lifestyle interventions are required. Synergistic efforts among clinicians, researchers, and policy makers are essential to ensure equitable access to preventive and therapeutic strategies, strengthening health care resilience for vulnerable populations during the ongoing pandemic and beyond.","PeriodicalId":51147,"journal":{"name":"Oncology-New York","volume":"null 7","pages":"280-282"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144977699","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We evaluated patients with breast cancer who were prescribed a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA), with follow-up weight data available. Weights were categorized by time from GLP-1 RA initiation; a linear mixed effects model with a random intercept for baseline weight was used to assess mean weight change at each time point. Among 75 patients, the median age was 52 years (range, 27-74), 62 (86%) were postmenopausal, and 59 (79%) had diabetes. Additionally, 68 (91%) patients had stage 0 to III breast cancer, and 62 (84%) had estrogen receptor-positive disease. The median body mass index (BMI) at baseline was 34 (range, 23-50). The mean weight change was -2.9 kg (95% CI, -4.1 to -1.7) at 6 months and -4.2 kg (95% CI, -5.5 to -2.9) at 12 months; mean weight change at 12 months was -5% (95% CI, -6% to -3%). In univariable and multivariable analyses, age, baseline BMI, diabetes, stage, histology, receptor status, menopausal status, and concurrent endocrine therapy use were not significantly associated with 5% or greater weight loss at 12 months. These results support the development of clinical trials to optimize the use and dosing of GLP-1 RAs for weight loss in patients with breast cancer.","PeriodicalId":51147,"journal":{"name":"Oncology-New York","volume":"null 7","pages":"294-296"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144977709","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of non-cancer-related mortality in this population, and this has been attributed to the cardiovascular toxicity of common breast cancer treatments including chemotherapy and radiation as well as shared risk factors between cancer and CVD. Identifying patients at risk of developing treatment-related cardiotoxicities is crucial to inform clinical decisions regarding surveillance, prevention, and management. In this review, we provide a broad overview of the treatment-related cardiotoxicities associated with common breast cancer treatment. We present data on risk-stratification tools for oncologists, including when to refer to a cardiologist, as well as recommendations for cardiovascular testing tailored to individual treatment regimens. Lastly, we review recent trial data on preventive and therapeutic approaches to treatment-related cardiotoxicities, and future directions that may lead to improved cardiovascular outcomes in this population.","PeriodicalId":51147,"journal":{"name":"Oncology-New York","volume":"null 5","pages":"188-197"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144545946","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
