AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Sweden Smoke-Free Milestone: Sweden has officially crossed its “smoke-free” goal: daily cigarette smoking is down to 4.8% (below 5%), down from 16% in 2003—though about a quarter of people still use nicotine daily via snus, vapes, or other products. Cancer Care Update: A new EXTEND trial suggests a simple blood test can better reflect early spread in some cancers than counting visible spots on scans, potentially changing how doctors decide on treatment intensity. Public Health Watch: Europe is seeing a sharp rise in sexually transmitted infections, with gonorrhea up 303% since 2015 and syphilis more than doubling since 2015. Maternal Health Tech: A heat-alert smartphone app for pregnant women and newborns is showing promising results in Zimbabwe, with Sweden involved in the HIGH Horizons project. Royal Health Note: Denmark’s Queen Margrethe is back in hospital just a week after discharge, with treatment following a blood clot linked to a prior fall.
