Early detection remains one of the strongest tools against prostate cancer, with localized disease associated with nearly 100% 5-year survival. An oncology nursing review highlights screening, risk stratification, precision medicine, and the expanding role of nurses in education, care coordination, and survivorship support.

Tumor genomes may evolve during treatment as resistant subclones emerge under therapeutic pressure, prompting increasing use of comprehensive genomic profiling and serial ctDNA testing to inform ongoing precision oncology decisions.

A genome-wide analysis of more than 2.5 million adults identified 26 genetic regions associated with fibromyalgia risk. The findings support a neurologic biological basis for the condition, though they do not establish causality or create a diagnostic test.

Genetic analyses of nearly 80,000 infants identified variants associated with toddler activity levels and other early behavioral traits. Several of these genetic signals overlapped with those previously linked to ADHD and autism, although the findings do not establish causality.

Single-nucleus multi-omics sequencing across genetically diverse ASD mouse models revealed convergent molecular and cellular changes in early brain development, despite distinct underlying mutations.

A new analytical framework applied to 30,000+ parent-child trios found that uninherited parental genes shape children’s height, BMI, and academic performance to a degree approaching the influence of children’s own DNA.
