The Oncology Journal Club - Delivering Oncology News Differently

The Oncology Podcast, brought to you by Oncology News Australia, is proud to present Episode 55 in our series The Oncology Journal Club.

Welcome to this week's episode of The OJC. Join Eva Segelov, Craig Underhill and Hans Prenen as they chat through the latest papers.

This week Eva talks us through a paper which will be very helpful for current practice. It looks at risk prediction of COVID-19 related deaths and hospital admissions in adults after vaccination.

Hans buried himself in Science and Cell papers this week for his main paper and quick bites. All are focused on the microbiome, the role of bacteria and following an elemental diet. Fascinating stuff!

And Craig brings us back down to the ground with a practice changing paper. He looks at oncology patients' perception of physicians who use an integrated electronic health record during clinic visits.

You’ll also find out key trends in drug revenue among major pharmaceutical companies, how a geriatric assessment–driven intervention reduced chemotherapy-related toxic effects in older adults and why the day of the week you submit effects publication rates in peer reviewed journals.

In ‘The Paper That Changed My Practice’ segment we hear from our friend Nathan Cherny with a beautifully poignant paper.

Full bios and the list of all papers discussed are available on our website.
