Meta AnalysisAccuracy and effectiveness of HPV mRNA testing in cervical cancer screening: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Cervical cancer screening tests that identify DNA of the main causal agent, high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) types, are more protective than cervical cytology. We systematically reviewed the literature to assess whether tests targeting high-risk HPV (hrHPV) mRNA are as accurate and effective as HPV DNA-based screening tests. ⋯ Horizon 2020 Framework Programme for Research and Innovation of the European Commission, through the RISCC Network, WHO, Haute Autorité de la Santé, European Society of Gynaecological Oncology, and the National Institute of Public Health and the Environment.

ReviewSystemic considerations for the surgical treatment of spinal metastatic disease: a scoping literature review.
Systemic assessment is a pillar in the neurological, oncological, mechanical, and systemic (NOMS) decision-making framework for the treatment of patients with spinal metastatic disease. Despite this importance, emerging evidence relating systemic considerations to clinical outcomes following surgery for spinal metastatic disease has not been comprehensively summarised. We aimed to conduct a scoping literature review of this broad topic. ⋯ This is the first comprehensive scoping review to broadly summarise emerging evidence relevant to the systemic assessment component of the widely used NOMS framework for spinal metastatic disease decision making. Medical, surgical, and radiation oncologists can consider these findings when prognosticating spinal metastatic disease-related surgical outcomes on the basis of patients' systemic condition. These factors might inform a shared decision-making approach with patients and their families.

Randomized Controlled TrialTumour response heterogeneity as a powerful independent predictor of treatment outcome in advanced lung adenocarcinoma: a retrospective analysis.
Tumour response heterogeneity to treatment is common across different foci in the same patient with cancer. However, the effect of heterogeneity on clinical outcome remains unclear. Here, we developed a quantitative assessment of tumour response heterogeneity and explored the correlation of tumour response heterogeneity with the clinical outcome. ⋯ National Natural Science Foundation of China (grant 82072565) and Bejing Xisike Clinical Oncology Research Foundation (grant Y-2019AZZD-0386).
