The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the first at-home test for syphilis for sale without a prescription. The test, manufactured by NOWDiagnostic and called First To Know Syphilis Test, arrives amid an 80% increase in cases in the US between 2018 and 2022, from 115 000 to 207 000 cases.

This prospective, observational study investigates the efficacy and safety of medication abortion provided using no-test telehealth eligibility screening and mailing of medications compared with in-person care with ultrasonography in the US.
Stroke, Ahead of Print. Right-to-left shunt, mainly due to patent foramen ovale (PFO), is likely responsible for ≈5% of all ischemic strokes and 10% of those occurring in young and middle-aged adults. Randomized clinical trials demonstrated that, in selected young and middle-aged patients with otherwise cryptogenic acute ischemic stroke and high-risk PFO, percutaneous PFO closure is more effective than antiplatelet therapy alone in preventing recurrence. However, PFO is generally a benign finding and is present in about one-quarter of the population. Therefore, in clinical practice, identifying PFOs that are likely to be pathogenetic is crucial for selecting suitable patients for PFO closure to prevent recurrent stroke and to avoid potentially harmful and costly overtreatment. Contrast transthoracic echocardiography has a relatively low sensitivity in detecting PFO, whereas transesophageal echocardiography is currently considered the gold standard for PFO detection. However, it is a relatively invasive procedure and may not always be easily feasible in the subacute setting. Contrast transcranial Doppler is a noninvasive, inexpensive, accurate tool for the detection of right-to-left shunt. We conducted a literature review on the use of contrast transcranial Doppler to detect and grade right-to-left shunt after an acute ischemic stroke and present a clinical workflow proposal for young and middle-aged patients.
When this scenario occurs during screening, incidence of upper endoscopy–detectable cancer is very low.

In July, the World Health Organization (WHO) prequalified the first hepatitis C virus (HCV) self-test. The product, called OraQuick HCV self-test, is an extension of the OraQuick HCV Rapid Antibody test that the agency prequalified in 2017 for professional use. This self-test kit is designed as a convenient and stigma-free way to reach people who might not otherwise get tested for HCV and therefore go undiagnosed.
