How to promote healthy diet practices among female cancer survivors with fertility challenges

A cancer diagnosis can increase the risk of infertility in young women. While consuming a healthy diet – including whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and healthy fatty acids – has been found to improve both fertility and cancer survivorship, over 90% of young adult cancer survivors don't meet the dietary recommendations and have diets consisting of high fat and low fruit and vegetable intake.

AI chatbot provides incorrect cancer treatment recommendations

Researchers evaluate the reliability of large language models (LLMs) in providing cancer treatment recommendations, finding that 33.33% of the chatbot's advice was partially non-concordant with established guidelines. The study highlights the need for caution and regulation as AI technologies infiltrate healthcare decision-making.

New insights into the role of liver progenitor cells in liver cancer initiation

Primary liver cancers ranked as the sixth most commonly diagnosed cancers and the third leading cause of cancer-related death in 2020. Among all primary liver cancers, HCC is the most common cancer, accounting for more than 80% of cases with a 5-year survival rate of less than 10% in Western countries.
