Abstract Alzheimer's disease (AD) continues to pose a major public health challenge. Since its launch in 2004, the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) has played a pivotal role in advancing the field by providing a comprehensive, open‐access, longitudinal dataset that integrates neuroimaging, biomarker, genetic, and clinical data related to AD. We used standard literature search methods to identify ∼1830 publications from 2023 to mid‐2025 that used ADNI data or samples. This review highlights key ADNI studies with direct clinical applications. We describe how these have impacted the development and validation of plasma biomarkers, improved clinical trials, assessed AD therapies, and developed methods for diagnosis and prediction using clinical, fluid, and imaging biomarkers. These contributions are underlain by an improved understanding of biological mechanisms of disease progression in AD and highlight ADNI's central role in advancing translational research and accelerating progress toward more effective, individualized care for patients with AD.

Abstract Variants of the shoulder are commonly encountered and may occasionally be confused with pathological conditions. Our goal is to provide an overview of common normal variants of the shoulder’s anatomical structures as well as any associated clinical or surgical relevance. Following a literature search of common variants of the shoulder and supporting structures, this review provides a summary of variants related to the scapular body, acromion, glenoid, coracoid, labrum, long head biceps tendon, glenohumeral ligamentous complex, and rotator cuff. The shoulder is composed of the glenohumeral, acromioclavicular, sternoclavicular, and scapulothoracic joints and their associated osseous, ligamentous, cartilaginous, and musculotendinous stabilizers. Anatomic variants about the shoulder, especially in the adolescent and young adult populations, are frequently encountered. An awareness of associated pathological conditions and an understanding of when variants might be clinically significant is important in interpreting radiological exams.

PURPOSE GBM AGILE (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03970447 ) is a phase II/III Bayesian adaptive platform registration trial testing multiple arms against a common control; the primary end point is overall survival (OS). Regorafenib, a multikinase inhibitor, showed OS benefit in recurrent (RD) glioblastoma in the phase II REGOMA trial and entered GBM AGILE as the first investigational arm. METHODS Patient subtypes included in the regorafenib arm of GBM AGILE were newly diagnosed unmethylated (NDU) and RD glioblastoma. Prospective defined sets of subtypes, or arm signatures, were NDU, RD, and all (NDU + RD). As the first investigational arm in GBM AGILE, regorafenib was equally randomized to the control arm. Treatment in the control arm is temozolomide + radiotherapy (in newly diagnosed) or lomustine (in RD). Efficacy was assessed by OS hazard ratio (HR), arm/control, and demonstrated when the Bayesian probability of benefit (HR <1.00) was ≥98%. Analysis was performed monthly for limited efficacy, which occurs when the Bayesian predictive power is <25% for all signatures, and determines stopping enrollment. Follow-up continued for 12 months after accrual stopped. RESULTS When the predictive power was <25% in all predefined signatures for regorafenib, accrual stopped for limited efficacy. The final analysis did not demonstrate OS improvement in the regorafenib arm in RD nor NDU glioblastoma. Median HRs were 1.05 (NDU), 1.07 (RD), and 1.07 (all) with final probabilities of benefit (HR <1.00) of 0.421 (NDU), 0.312 (RD), and 0.296 (all). Regorafenib was associated with increased toxicity relative to control. CONCLUSION GBM AGILE did not show superiority of regorafenib over control in RD (lomustine) or NDU (temozolomide + radiotherapy) glioblastoma, yet caused increased toxicities. Regorafenib has been removed from National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines as a treatment option for RD.

Abstract A short diagnosis-to-treatment interval independently predicts inferior outcomes in follicular lymphoma. Using international discovery and validation cohorts, we demonstrate its prognostic value beyond established prognostic indices, with implications for risk stratification, clinical trial design, and interpretation.

Abstract We evaluated outcomes by management type for patients with stage IA nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin lymphoma (NLPHL) in the Global NLPHL One Working Group retrospective database of 2243 patients with stages I to IV disease diagnosed from 1992 to 2021 at 38 international institutions. A total of 779 patients had stage IA disease with median age of 35 years (range, 3-89) and median follow-up of 6.1 years. The 6-year progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival were 86.3% and 97.7%, respectively. Outcomes were analyzed for the 2 groups: complete resection and unresected disease. Patients with a complete resection and observation alone (n = 99) had a 6-year PFS of 65.5% vs 90.5% for those who received radiotherapy (RT) (n = 53). Patients with unresected disease (n = 627; 80.5%) had a 6-year PFS of 62.0% for rituximab alone (n = 31), 89.6% for RT alone (n = 325), 76.8% for ABVD (doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, dacarbazine) alone (n = 40), and 94.3% for ABVD plus RT (n = 130). A total of 127 patients relapsed (16.3%), of which 25 (19.7%) had transformation. Our analysis suggests the following: (1) RT improves the PFS in patients with completely resected disease; (2) rituximab or ABVD alone does not appear to achieve a durable response; and (3) chemotherapy was not observed to add additional PFS benefit when used in combination with RT. Thus, for stage IA NLPHL, RT alone is likely sufficient for definitive treatment.

Background: Long-term outcomes of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) surgery, particularly survivorship, are critical to guide treatment decision-making and patient counseling, yet only a limited number of studies have reported mid- to long-term survivorship. The purpose of this study was to report survivorship rates at a mean 10-year follow-up in a large, multicenter FAI surgery cohort and to identify clinical predictors of survivorship. Methods: A prospective, multicenter cohort study assessed patients treated for FAI with hip arthroscopy or surgical dislocation from 2008 to 2012. At a minimum of 8 years, 362 hips (80.1%) had follow-up that permitted assessment of total hip arthroplasty (THA)-free survivorship. A Cox proportional-hazards model was developed to identify risk factors for THA. Results: tThe cohort included 362 hips with a mean patient age of 32.1 years; 53% were in females, and 95.6% were in Caucasian patients. The THA-free survivorship of the cohort was 90.6% at a mean of 10.4 ± 1.6 years postoperatively. Risk factors for THA were older age at surgery (p = 0.01), male sex (p = 0.02), body mass index of ≥30 kg/m 2 (p = 0.009), and femoral head chondromalacia (p < 0.001). Conclusions: This study demonstrates that FAI surgery yielded durable 10-year THA-free survivorship of 90.6%. Older age at surgery, obesity, male sex, and femoral head chondromalacia were key predictors of conversion to THA. Level of Evidence: Therapeutic Level II .

Importance Transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement (TTVR) demonstrated superior outcomes over medical therapy in patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR) in the Edwards EVOQUE Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Replacement: Pivotal Clinical Investigation of Safety and Clinical Efficacy Using a Novel Device II (TRISCEND II) randomized clinical trial, and received regulatory approval in the US in 2024. Contemporary real-world data on its effectiveness and safety remain limited. Objective To evaluate 30-day clinical, echocardiographic, and health status outcomes of TTVR in real-world use. Design, Setting, and Population Retrospective cohort study of all consecutive patients who underwent TTVR in the US from February 2024 through March 2025 in the Society of Thoracic Surgeons/American College of Cardiology Transcatheter Valve Therapy Registry. Patients had symptomatic, severe TR despite optimal medical therapy and TTVR was deemed appropriate by a heart team. Statistical analysis was conducted from September 2025 to February 2026. Exposure Device-enabled TTVR. Main Outcomes and Measures Thirty-day event rates (all-cause death, stroke, bleeding, new cardiac implantable electronic device [CIED] implantation, heart failure hospitalizations), TR reduction, and changes in health status (New York Heart Association [NYHA] functional class and Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire Overall Summary [KCCQ-OS] score) are reported. Subgroup analyses examined the impact of baseline CIED status on outcomes. Results Among 1034 attempted procedures at 82 centers (mean [SD] age, 77.1 [10.6] years; 69.1% female; 73.2% NYHA functional class III/IV), a valve was successfully implanted in 1017 patients (98.4%). Mild or less TR was achieved in 98.4% of patients post procedure and in 97.7% at 30 days. At 30 days, all-cause mortality was 3.1%; stroke, 0.2%; bleeding, 7.9%; new CIED, 15.9% in CIED-naive patients; and heart failure hospitalization, 3.1%. There were significant improvements in NYHA functional class (class I/II, 82.7%; P &amp;lt; .001) and mean KCCQ-OS score (22.4 points; P &amp;lt; .001) from baseline to 30 days. There were no significant differences in 30-day mortality ( P = .47), heart failure hospitalization ( P &amp;gt; .99), and functional outcomes ( P = .55) when patients were stratified by baseline CIED status. Conclusions and Relevance Early US real-world experience with TTVR confirms safety and effectiveness in patients with severe TR. Thirty-day outcomes are consistent with the TRISCEND II pivotal trial, demonstrating acceptable safety, near-complete TR elimination, and significant health status improvements in an older, comorbid population. Rates of new CIED implantation and bleeding were lower than randomized clinical trial experience.

PURPOSE Since 2012, several states have implemented mandatory paid sick leave (PSL) policies. PSL can provide patients time and income continuity to undergo screening and/or timely diagnostic workup for new cancer-related symptoms and complete lengthy and expensive cancer treatment courses. This study aimed to examine the association between mandatory PSL policies and cancer stage at diagnosis and overall survival (OS). METHODS Adults age 18-64 years diagnosed with cancer were identified from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results program registries between 2010 and 2019. Difference-in-differences (DID) analyses were used to compare absolute changes in stage I and stage IV diagnoses and 1-year OS before and after policy implementation in states that enacted mandatory PSL relative to states that did not enact such policies. RESULTS A total of 1,052,307 patients with cancer were included. In adjusted DID analyses, there were a 0.83 (95% CI = –1.49 to –0.16, P = .014) PP decrease in stage IV diagnoses and a 0.63 (95% CI = 0.10 to 1.17, P = .021) PP increase in 1-year OS associated with implementation of mandatory PSL policies. In exploratory analyses, males and individuals with lung cancer experienced the greatest shifts in policy-associated changes in stage at diagnosis and OS. CONCLUSION PSL policy implementation is associated with decreased late-stage diagnoses and improved OS in patients with cancer. Policies that improve opportunities to receive medical care may facilitate earlier cancer detection and ultimately contribute to better patient outcomes.
