The first chapter offers a systematic review of the economic literature on film policy, organised around five macro-categories: subsidies, quotas, piracy, co-productions, and censorship. ...

Percutaneous ALPITube ileostomy for colorectal anastomotic protection: a multicentre feasibility study

Background: Standard loop ileostomy protects low colorectal anastomoses but causes substantial stoma-related morbidity including dehydration, high-output syndrome and metabolic complications. The Anastomotic Leak Prevention Ileostomy Tube (ALPITube) is a novel CE-marked percutaneous diversion device designed to provide anastomotic protection while avoiding traditional stoma complications. Objective: To evaluate the technical feasibility, safety profile and preliminary outcomes of ALPITube in ...

A blood-based immune-suppressive index stratifies immunotherapy outcomes in advanced NSCLC

Background Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) provide durable benefit for a subset of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), however predictive biomarkers remain limited. Peripheral blood offers accessible immune and inflammatory signals that may reflect the onset of systemic mechanisms of resistance. This study aimed to identify circulating immune features associated with clinical outcome and to develop a clinically applicable blood-based score for risk stratification in...
