A study presented at ESMO Breast Cancer 2022 documents a "significant long-term benefit" among women with breast cancer who were treated with tamoxifen.
The study was a secondary analysis of women with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive HER2-negative breast cancer who were treated between 1976 and 1996 in Sweden.
"Our findings suggest a significant long-term tamoxifen treatment benefit among patients with larger tumors, lymph node-negative tumors, PR-positive tumors, and Ki-67 low tumors," according to Huma Dar, a doctoral candidate at Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, who authored the study.
The analysis found that patients with tumor size T1c, grade 2, lymph node-negative, PR-positive, and Ki-67-low tumors significantly benefited from treatment with tamoxifen for 20 years. And, for patients with tumor size T2-3, benefited significantly after 10 years of treatment with tamoxifen.
It is known that breast cancer patients with ER-positive tumors have a greater risk of distant recurrence – cancer spreading to tissues and organs far from the original tumor site. The selective estrogen receptor modulator tamoxifen, when used as an adjuvant therapy, has been shown to reduce the risk of tumor recurrence and increase survival in patients with ER-positive breast cancer, but not all patients benefit from this therapy.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Treatment with nabiximols in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) demonstrated a significant, sustained effect on spasticity numeric rating scale (NRS) score and spasm frequency, regardless of the use of the use of concomitant antispasticity medications (ASMs), such as baclofen. These study findings were presented at the 2022 Annual Meeting of the Consortium of Multiple Sclerosis Centers (CMSC) held from June 1-4, in National Harbor, Maryland.

Women Allowed Topless In Pools In Germany For Gender Equality
The city of Göttingen in Lower Saxony, central Germany, will be the first in the country to allow the practice of female topless swimming in its indoor and outdoor pools, thanks to a measure aimed at increasing gender equality.

From what I understand, the Germans are kind of into nudity. It's common in other contexts, so allowing topless swimming is par for the course. It would never fly in the Puritan U.S. though.

Exactly. You can go to any beach and show up with bare breasts already. Thats why Göttingen allowing boobs in public pools didnt even make it to the news.
Also, Lower Saxony is not really central Germany

You know, I remember years ago watching some documentary in which German women tourists were playing soccer topless in Africa. While they were playing, the local women were watching them and laughing because of their nudity and someone commented how a generation or two ago, these local women were also topless and were taught to cover their breasts by the ancestors of European women who were now being topless.

Public nudity on beaches, but also in your own backyard has quite a strong tradition in eastern Germany, in the former commie states. Its called FKK over here.

In the orange turd system, the big lie is considered especially heinous. On capital hill, the dedicated bullshit detectors who investigate these vicious lies are an elite squad known as the FUCK YOU UNIT! These are their hearings. DUNT DUNT
