Revised international prognostic index 3–4 was seen in 53% and prior rituximab exposure in 60%. The complete and overall response rates were 55% and 76%, respectively. Median progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival were 23 and 24 months, respectively. Patients relapsing within 12 months of prior treatment had a median PFS of 2.5 months compared to 23 months for those relapsing beyond 12 months. Grade 3–4 thrombocytopenia and neutropenia occurred in one and eight patients, respectively. R-IE is an effective, well tolerated regimen in RR-DLBCL patients not fit for autoSCT.]]> Mon 14 Nov 2022 11:22:52 AEDT ]]> Impact and cost of the peer-led students as lifestyle activists programme in high schools https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:39905 2 fruit serves/day (p < .001), 2.5% increase in eating >4 vegetable serves/day (p  < .05), a 4.3% increase in drinking <1 cup/day of SSB (p  < .001) but limiting screen-time <2 hours/day decreased by 4.4% (p  < .001). There were significant improvements in students’ intentions to change EBRBs over the next month, with the exception of MVPA. The average actual cost of implementing the SALSA programme in 2014–2015 was AU$1,388 (US$958) per school and AU$9.97 (US$6.88) per student. Conclusion: The SALSA peer education programme had a positive impact on most of the dietary EBRBs examined. The cost evaluation showed that it is a relatively low-cost programme to implement.]]> Fri 15 Jul 2022 11:28:11 AEST ]]>
