A Severe Case of Malaria in a 44-Year-Old Caucasian Woman on Return to Western Romania from a Visit to Nigeria.

Malaria is currently the most prevalent life-threatening infectious disease in the world. In this case report, we present a 44-year-old Caucasian woman with a low level of education and no significant past medical history who presented to the emergency room of the Emergency County Hospital of Arad, Romania, with a general affected state, a fever of 38.5 °C, chills, weakness, headache, muscle pain, nausea, icterus, and watery diarrheal stool.

Classic and molecular cytogenetic findings in leukemia patients from the Western part of Romania.

Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common type of leukemia in childhood and rare in adults, while acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is less common in children and more common in older adults. The aim of the study was to present our experience for the diagnostic of leukemia by using the classic and molecular cytogenetic methods. The study was conducted between 2009 and 2019 within the Classic and Molecular Genetic Laboratory of the Oncohematology Department from the Louis Ţurcanu Emergency Hospital for Children, Timişoara, Romania.

Seroprevalence and Associated Risk Factors of in Patients Diagnosed with Schizophrenia: A Case-Control Cross Sectional Study.

The protozoan parasite, , has been linked to several psychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of IgG antibodies and risk factors associated with seroprevalence in patients diagnosed with schizophrenia. This seroepidemiological study assessed 196 participants, divided into two groups.

Clinical and Sociodemographic Correlations with Neurological Soft Signs in Hospitalized Patients with Schizophrenia: A Preliminary Longitudinal Study.

Schizophrenia is a severe, chronic neuropsychiatric disorder characterized by symptoms that profoundly impact behavior, cognition, perception, and emotions, leading to a reduced quality of life and physical impairment. Given the complexity of schizophrenia, there is a pressing need for clinical markers and tools to predict its course, enhance disease staging, facilitate early intervention, improve differential diagnosis, and tailor individualized treatment approaches. Previous studies focused on the relationship between neurological soft signs (NSS) and factors such as age, illness duration, and symptomatology, indicating NSS as state markers improving in parallel with psychotic symptom remission or predicting treatment resistance.

[Tb]Tb-PSMA-617 radioligand therapy in patients with mCRPC: preliminary dosimetry results and intra-individual head-to-head comparison to [Lu]Lu-PSMA-617.

Evaluation of alternative radionuclides for use in prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-targeted radioligand therapy (RLT) is currently focusing on Tb, which may provide advantages by emitting additional Auger and conversion electrons. In this pilot study, we present preliminary dosimetry data for [Tb]Tb-PSMA-617 RLT in a direct comparison with [Lu]Lu-PSMA-617. Six patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) underwent treatment with [Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 and subsequently - after inadequate response - with [Tb]Tb-PSMA-617.
