Importance There are limited efficacious treatments for Alzheimer disease. Objective To assess efficacy and adverse events of donanemab, an antibody designed to clear brain amyloid plaque. Design, Setting, Participants Multicenter (277 medical research centers/hospitals in 8 countries), randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 18-month phase 3 trial that enrolled 1736 participants with early symptomatic disease (mild cognitive impairment/mild dementia) low/medium or high tau pathology...

<h3>Importance</h3> Lower cranial neuropathy (LCNP) is a rare but potentially disabling result of radiotherapy and other head neck cancer therapies. Survivors who develop late LCNP may experience profound functional impairment, with deficits in swallowing, speech, voice. <h3>Objective</h3> To investigate the association severity treatment–related symptoms subsequent general impairment among oropharyngeal (OPC) survivors. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> This cross-sectional survey...

Background This study was conducted to identify clinicodemographic risk factors for xerostomia among long‐term oropharyngeal cancer (OPC) survivors. Methods cross‐sectional included 906 disease‐free, adult OPC survivors with a median survival duration at the time of survey 6 years (range, 1‐16 years); self‐reported scores were available 877 participants. Study participants had completed curative treatment between January 2000 and December 2013 responded administered from September 2015 July...

Abstract Background The purpose of this study was to quantify the association late lower cranial neuropathy (late LCNP) with swallowing‐related quality life (QOL) and functional status among long‐term oropharyngeal cancer (OPC) survivors. Methods Eight hundred eighty‐nine OPC survivors (median survival time: 7 years) who received primary treatment at a single institution between January 2000 December 2013 completed cross‐sectional survey (56% response rate) that included MD Anderson...

<h3>Importance</h3> Lower cranial neuropathy (LCNP) is a rare, but permanent, late effect of radiotherapy and other cancer therapies. associated with excess cancer-related symptoms worse swallowing-related quality life. Few studies have investigated risk clinical factors LCNP among patients long-term survival oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC survivors). <h3>Objective</h3> To estimate the cumulative incidence identify OPSCC survivors. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> This...

<h3>Importance</h3> Voice and speech production are critical physiological functions that affect quality of life may deteriorate substantially after oropharyngeal cancer (OPC) treatment. There is limited knowledge about risk factors associated with voice outcomes among survivors OPC. <h3>Objective</h3> To identify the symptoms long-term <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> This retrospective cohort study cross-sectional survivorship survey administration includes cancer-free OPC who were...

Abstract Background The study objective is to identify risk factors associated with fatigue among long‐term OPC survivors. Methods This cross‐sectional included disease‐free survivors treated curatively between 2000 and 2013 who were surveyed from September 2015 July 2016. outcome variable was patient‐reported fatigue. Multivariable logistic regression used moderate severe Results Among 863 survivors, 17.4% reported Self‐reported thyroid problems (OR: 2.01; p = 0.003), current cigarette...

Abstract Background This study investigated the association of hearing loss and tinnitus with overall health‐related quality life (HRQoL) among long‐term oropharyngeal cancer (OPC) survivors. Methods included OPC survivors treated between 2000 2013 surveyed from September 2015 to July 2016. Hearing were measured by asking rate their “difficulty and/or ringing in ears” 0 (not present) 10 (as bad as you can imagine). scores categorized follows: for none, 1–4 mild, 5–10 moderate severe.

Abstract Genetic susceptibility for xerostomia, a common sequela of radiotherapy and chemoradiotherapy head neck cancer, is unknown. Therefore, to identify genetic variants associated with moderate severe we conducted GWAS 359 long-term oropharyngeal cancer (OPC) survivors using 579,956 autosomal SNPs. Patient-reported treatment-related xerostomia was assessed the MD Anderson Symptom Inventory. Patient response dichotomized as or none mild symptoms. In our study, 39.2% OPC reported...

Background: African Americans (AAs) are about twice as likely to develop dementia compared non-Hispanic whites (NHWs). Dietary modification is an effective preventive strategy reduce the rate of cognitive decline, a hallmark feature dementia; however, evidence from diverse populations focusing on AAs minimal. Objective: To evaluate association between plant-based diet and decline in population-based sample NHWs. Method: This study consisted 4753 participants (62% American, 63% female)...
