Why Using AI to Interpret Mammogram Results Can Cause Unnecessary Panic
You know it, I know it: our patients are using AI to interpret medical results. Last week my friend Annie called me in a panic late at night. She had had a screening mammogram earlier in the day, the first one in 3 years. She already felt guilty about the delay. Life had gotten busy. There were kids, work, appointments, obligations. The mammogram had slipped down the list of things she knew she needed to do.
KEYNOTE-564 5-Year Data: Adjuvant Pembrolizumab Benefits ccRCC
Five-year follow-up results from the phase III KEYNOTE-564 trial (NCT03142334) demonstrate sustained disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) improvements with adjuvant pembrolizumab (Keytruda) compared with placebo in patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) at increased risk of recurrence. The findings, published in Annals of Oncology, represent the fourth prespecified interim analysis of the trial with a minimum follow-up of 60 months.
Updated ASTRO Pancreatic Guidelines: Key Takeaways for Oncology Nurses
Epidemiologic models project that pancreatic cancer will become the second leading cause of cancer-related mortality in the United States by 2030.

NCCN Survey: US Cancer Centers Face Generic Oncology Drug Shortages
Survey findings published by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) reveal that generic cancer drug shortfalls continue to disrupt operations across American cancer centers.

The Drug War Within: Crisis, Crackdown, and Intra-Regime Conflict in Bangladesh
Abstract Bangladesh is one of the latest countries to lose a war on drugs. Under the now deposed Awami League government a nationwide drugs crackdown and Zero Tolerance policy was launched in 2018 and led to hundreds of deaths. Globally such wars are often framed as clashes between states and “organised crime” and seen as populist strategies for electoral advantage.
4 Convictions You Should Never Preach Without
Four Convictions Without Which You Ought Not to Preach When I was teaching at a seminary, which I did for fifteen years, I regularly told my students that they shouldn’t be allowed to graduate if they didn’t have four convictions about Scripture. I would say something very similar to those who are preaching or aspiring to preach. If these convictions about Scripture are not in place and operating in your hearts, I do not think you should be allowed to preach.
5 Ways Pastors Can Grow in Their Preaching
Good and Faithful Servant While it will take several hours to produce a sermon, it takes a lifetime to produce the preacher. No one can create an effective Bible preacher. No process of training can ensure the quality of the end product because preaching involves many different aspects of mind and personality. However, we can be thankful that God gives his gifts of grace to the church so that within local churches there are those whom he gifts as pastors and teachers (Eph. 4:11).
Dear Pastor, Stay on the Line
This article is part of the Dear Pastor series. Handling the Word of Truth Paul’s exhortation to Timothy provides a constant challenge to the biblical preacher: “Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth” (2 Tim. 2:15). There are several ingredients of the verse to think about. To handle “the word of truth” is a task of enormous responsibility that will be tested and approved by God himself.
The Role of Systematic Theology in Preaching
Synthesize in Doctrine Biblical theology is a great starting point for theological reflection. And if you develop your biblical theological skills for preaching through plenty of experience, it will take you most of the way through this stage of preparation. At the same time, another branch of theology has a role to play in theological reflection: systematic theology.
Why You Need Confidence to Teach the Bible
What Bible Teachers Need Most Let me tell you about the first time I prepared a talk from the Bible for a relatively large group of people. I was eighteen; it had been a year since I had submitted my life to the gospel and fallen in love with Jesus. My public high school of roughly twelve hundred students had recently voted to select two graduating students to speak at commencement. Somehow, I was selected (clearly the criteria had not been being the class valedictorian).

Dear Pastor, Sermon Prep Is Worth the Effort
This article is part of the Dear Pastor series. Dear Pastor, Sometimes it can be hard to remember that in the Lord’s goodness and grace he has called us to take up the most significant and fulfilling task in the world—to be a pastor-teacher, an under-shepherd of God’s flock. Life in the ministry is so demanding. In my study I have two framed cartoons, both given to me by friends.
One Reason Preaching Matters
We must be actively depending on God, the Holy Spirit, to grant illumination and understanding to us and our hearers so that in our preparation we are governed by his life-giving word and praying for its impact on all who hear. Equally, we must be dependent on the Spirit who inspired the text to give us clear thinking, a warm heart, and effective delivery in the process of preaching so that the wind of God may be in the sails of the sermon.
One Reason Preaching Matters
God Speaks through Preaching To many people, preaching seems strangely out of place in the modern world. Why would anyone choose to go to a church building, week by week, to hear a preacher (often the same person) deliver a monologue for twenty or thirty minutes (sometimes even longer) about an ancient book with characters who lived, at best, two thousand years ago? This doesn’t happen in any other context. Educational methods are increasingly interactive. Learning by discovery is the watchword.

5 Steps to Take within the Exegesis Process
The First Stage of Preaching Preparation: Exegesis The aim of exegesis is to immerse oneself in the text with as direct an encounter as possible in order to understand its meaning. The Greek verb exēgeomai—which means to relate, explain, or make known—is used in John 1:18: “No one has ever seen God; the only God, who is at the Father’s side, he has made him known.” The exegesis process makes known the meaning of the text to us, an essential step before we can declare that meaning to others.

Reassurance from Maintenance
Inside Maintenance and Spending One of the key areas to consider when you're looking at an equipment's expected 'life cycle', are the operating costs including maintenance and machinery downtime. The coronavirus outbreak has impacted the UK economy at a level unprecedented in modern times and while a recovery is underway (according to UK Parliament) there is uncertainty over how fast economic activity will regain lost ground.
Reassurance from maintenance in uncertain times
In their last article, Reesink Turfcare took an in-depth look at the importance of the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of turfcare machinery, concluding that it is, now more than ever, vital to consider the overall investment of the equipment's expected 'life cycle', rather than focusing on the short-term cost.

Preaching in Church Plants
Preaching in Church Plants Practical tips from 4 church planters for your first year. Image: Alexander Michl/Unsplash Aaron Damiani, sixth year of church planting, Chicago, Illinois My first three years of preaching as a church planter were a trial by fire. From the start I had to develop a new capacity to preach on a regular basis. I also had to develop a new courage to preach. I wasn’t under a senior pastor anymore. I was stepping into the pulpit as the one defining our values, vision, and culture.

Five-Year Follow-Up of Nivolumab in Previously Treated Advanced Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer: Results From the CA209-003 Study
Patients with pretreated, advanced NSCLC received nivolumab 1, 3, or 10 mg/kg every 2 weeks in 8-week cycles for up to 96 weeks. OS from the time of first dose was estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. The estimated 5-year OS rate was 16% for all treated patients (N = 129); 5-year OS rates were similar for squamous (16%) and nonsquamous (15%) NSCLC. Of 16 5-year survivors, most (88%) were known current or former smokers.
Question-Oriented Preaching
The value of asking questions before, during, and after our sermon to help people engage with the text and God. Along the banks of the Schuylkill River, just north of the famous Philadelphia Art Museum is an oft-unnoticed small plaza consisting of four twelve-foot high granite statues. One of the four statues is jolting because it is strikingly counter-intuitive.

And yet Seung, a man so naturally exuberant that he was known for staging ad hoc dance performances with Harvard Square’s street musicians, was growing increasingly depressed. He and his colleagues spent their days arguing over how the brain might function, but science offered no way to scan it for the answers.That November, Seung sought the advice of David Tank, a mentor he met at Bell Laboratories who was attending the annual meeting of the Society for Neuroscience, in Washington.

The Oxford Blue
We picked up the keys to our new HQ only a couple of weeks ago. It's a beautiful pub in our home city Oxford.

On the surface The Oxford Blue is an old Oxford icon, hosting sporting & academic superstars alike. Since last June it's been left to wilt and its once established name in Oxford has faded.
