Multicenter Study Observational Study
The HSACAT Project: A Prospective Multicentre Observational Study of Spontaneous Subarachnoid Haemorrhage in Catalonia (Spain).
Incidence, clinical course, and fatality of spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) are evolving, with prevalence of risk factors diminishing, implementation of early detection programs and strategies for priority aneurysm exclusion, technical refinement with less invasive procedures, and improvements in neurocritical care. Modern epidemiological and prognostic data are lacking, especially in southern European and Mediterranean populations. ⋯ Even when most patients received timely aneurysm treatment, case fatality rates were considerably high. Data provided by the HSACat project may have public health effects and be used to guide prevention programs and screening strategies.

Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study
Isatuximab, Bortezomib, Lenalidomide, and Dexamethasone for Multiple Myeloma.
Bortezomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone (VRd) is a preferred first-line treatment option for patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma. Whether the addition of the anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody isatuximab to the VRd regimen would reduce the risk of disease progression or death among patients ineligible to undergo transplantation is unclear. ⋯ Isatuximab-VRd was more effective than VRd as initial therapy in patients 18 to 80 years of age with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma who were ineligible to undergo transplantation.

Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study
Cadonilimab plus platinum-based chemotherapy with or without bevacizumab as first-line treatment for persistent, recurrent, or metastatic cervical cancer (COMPASSION-16): a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 3 trial in China.
Cadonilimab is a bispecific antibody targeting PD-1 and CTLA-4, which has shown substantial clinical benefits in advanced cervical cancer. In the COMPASSION-16 trial, we aimed to evaluate the addition of cadonilimab to first-line standard chemotherapy in persistent, recurrent, or metastatic cervical cancer. ⋯ Akeso Biopharma.

Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study Comparative Study
Amivantamab plus Lazertinib in Previously Untreated EGFR-Mutated Advanced NSCLC.
Amivantamab plus lazertinib (amivantamab-lazertinib) has shown clinically meaningful and durable antitumor activity in patients with previously untreated or osimertinib-pretreated EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptor)-mutated advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). ⋯ Amivantamab-lazertinib showed superior efficacy to osimertinib as first-line treatment in EGFR-mutated advanced NSCLC.

Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study Comparative Study Pragmatic Clinical Trial
Collagenase Injection versus Limited Fasciectomy for Dupuytren's Contracture.
Treatments for Dupuytren's contracture include limited fasciectomy and collagenase injection. Comparisons of the effectiveness of these treatments have been limited. ⋯ Collagenase injection was not noninferior to limited fasciectomy with respect to the score on the PEM at 1 year after treatment.
