Trends in mortality rates for oral and oropharyngeal cancer in Spain, 1979-2018

Antonio Jose Duran-Romero, Pedro Infante-Cossio, Jose Juan Pereyra-Rodriguez

Summary: This study analyzed mortality rate trends for oral cavity and oropharyngeal cancer (OCOPC) in Spain from 1979 to 2018. The results showed a decline in mortality rates for oral cavity cancer (OCC), while rates for OCOPC increased slightly and rates for oropharyngeal cancer (OPC) increased significantly. The highest mortality rates for OCC and OPC were observed between 1979 and 1992. Age, period, and cohort analyses revealed an increase in mortality rates for certain age groups.

Ortiz de Frutos, Jose C. Armario-Hita

Summary: In a multicentre retrospective study, tralokinumab treatment showed significant improvement in patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD), with a 70% improvement in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) score, 64% improvement in SCORing Atopic Dermatitis, and 57% improvement in peak pruritus numerical rating scale. The response rate was higher in patients naive to biologics or Janus kinase inhibitors. The safety profile was acceptable.
