Results All subjects presented with initial severe hearing loss with averaged hearing thresholds >70 dB. The S-H-A group exhibited good hearing improvement outcomes at each audiometric octave frequency and grouped frequencies of audiograms, with greater hearing gain and had more favorable outcomes in hearing recovery grades compared with the S group and the S-H group. Conclusions The results obtained in this study revealed a preliminary finding of ISSNHL patients benefiting from combined acupuncture, HBOT, and conventional steroid therapy. Acupuncture is a safe and nonpharmacologic treatment option and can be considered as an initial treatment strategy in such a clinical scenario. The twin pandemics of COVID-19 and systemic racism during 2020 have forced a conversation across many segments of our society, including the environmental health sciences (EHS) research community. We have seen the proliferation of statements of solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement and commitments to fight racism and health inequities from academia, nonprofit organizations, governmental agencies, and private corporations. Actions must now arise from these promises. As public health and EHS scientists, we must examine the systems that produce and perpetuate inequities in exposure to environmental pollutants and associated health effects. We outline five recommendations the EHS research community can implement to confront racism and move our science forward for eliminating racial inequities in environmental health. Race is best considered a political label that promotes inequality. Thus, we should be wary of equating race with biology. Further, EHS researchers should seriously consider racism asations for racial differences in environmental exposures and health outcomes. Last, the EHS research community should develop metrics to measure racism and a set of guidelines on the use and interpretation of race and ethnicity within the environmental sciences. Numerous guidelines exist in other disciplines that can serve as models. By taking action on each of these recommendations, we can make significant progress toward eliminating racial disparities. https//doi.org/10.1289/EHP8186.This commentary addresses individual barriers to implementation of a Whole Health approach to pain management that included a group pain education session and individual therapy. The authors identify individual barriers to veteran participation in the Whole Health program and also make recommendations for future programs. One of the most intriguing identified barriers to participation was the concern about the veteran's readiness for change that would facilitate active engagement in the program. Approved systemic therapies for advanced gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs) have shown limited capacity to reduce tumor burden and no antitumor activity after progression to targeted agents (TAs). We investigated the efficacy and safety of lenvatinib in patients with previously treated advanced GEP-NETs. This was a multicenter, single-arm, open-label, phase II trial with two parallel cohorts (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT02678780) involving 21 institutions in 4 European countries. Eligible patients had histologically confirmed advanced grade 1-2 pancreatic (panNET) or GI (GI-NET) NETs with documented tumor progression after treatment with a TA (panNET) or somatostatin analogs (GI-NET). Patients were treated with lenvatinib 24 mg once daily until disease progression or treatment intolerance. The primary end point was overall response rate by central radiology review. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/retatrutide.html Secondary end points included progression-free survival, overall survival, duration of response, and safety. Betweighest centrally confirmed response reported to date with a multikinase inhibitor in advanced GEP-NETs, with a particularly strong response in the panNET cohort. This study provides novel evidence for the efficacy of lenvatinib in patients with disease progression following treatment with other TAs, suggesting the potential value of lenvatinib in the treatment of advanced GEP-NETs. Effective therapies are needed for the treatment of patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2)-positive metastatic breast cancer (MBC) with brain metastases. A trastuzumab radioisotope has been shown to localize in brain metastases of patients with HER2-positive MBC, and intracranial xenograft models have demonstrated a dose-dependent response to trastuzumab. In the phase II PATRICIA study (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT02536339), patients with HER2-positive MBC with CNS metastases and CNS progression despite prior radiotherapy received pertuzumab plus high-dose trastuzumab (6 mg/kg weekly) until CNS or systemic disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary end point was confirmed objective response rate (ORR) in the CNS per Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology Brain Metastases criteria. Secondary end points included duration of response, clinical benefit rate (complete response plus partial response plus stable disease ≥ 4 or ≥ 6 months) in the CNS, and safety. Thirty-nine patients were treated for a median (range) of 4.5 (0.3-37.3) months at clinical cutoff. Thirty-seven patients discontinued treatment, most commonly because of CNS progression (n = 27); two remained on treatment. CNS ORR was 11% (95% CI, 3 to 25), with four partial responses (median duration of response, 4.6 months). Clinical benefit rate at 4 months and 6 months was 68% and 51%, respectively. Two patients permanently discontinued study treatment because of adverse events (left ventricular dysfunction [treatment-related] and seizure, both grade 3). No grade 5 adverse events were reported. No new safety signals emerged with either agent. Although the CNS ORR was modest, 68% of patients experienced clinical benefit, and two patients had ongoing stable intracranial and extracranial disease for > 2 years. High-dose trastuzumab for HER2-positive CNS metastases may warrant further study. 2 years. High-dose trastuzumab for HER2-positive CNS metastases may warrant further study.Purpose The chin-down position is a commonly prescribed posture by health care professionals to alleviate the symptoms of dysphagia. Yet, how the technique influences swallowing physiology lacks clarity. Our goal was to examine the impact of the postural technique on patients with various medical conditions and swallowing impairments. Method Temporal and functional measures were examined with videofluoroscopy in the chin-down and neutral head position on 15 patients. Also, timing differences between head positions were examined to determine the presence of improvement during the chin-down posture. Results The primary finding was chin-down posture swallows prolonged the elapsed time between when the prematurely spilled bolus entered the pharynx relative to swallow onset compared to the neutral head position (p = .006). Also, no improvement in airway protection was found when performing the postural technique. Conclusions The chin-down posture may benefit patients with specific swallowing impairments. However, the general use of the technique for all patients who experience swallowing difficulty might be negligent and could potentially have adverse or no effect on patient outcomes.
