Objectives: To quantify the stage-shift with prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET/CT imaging in metastatic prostate cancer and explore treatment implications.
Methods: Single-centre, retrospective analysis of patients with newly diagnosed [F]PSMA-1007 or [Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT-detected metastatic prostate cancer who had baseline bone scintigraphy between January 2015 and May 2021. Patients were subclassified into oligometastatic and polymetastatic disease utilizing the STAMPEDE2 trial (ISRCTN66357938/NCT06320067) definition.
Background: Meniscus root tears comprise 10% to 21% of all meniscal tears. These tears alter knee biomechanics, elevating contact pressure, akin to a meniscectomy. Consequently, they are linked to advanced joint degeneration and cartilage damage in the affected compartment.

The parent sulfo-pillar[6]arene is a high-affinity host with the potential to act as a supramolecular reversal agent. However, it lacks synthetic diversification of the core scaffold.

Currently, disagreement in the terminology, diagnosis and treatment of these injuries limits clinical care and research. This study aimed to develop consensus on the nomenclature, diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation strategies for patients with MLKI, while identifying important research priorities for further study.
