Introduction: A primary objective when performing a total hip arthroplasty (THA) is to restore hip biomechanics in accordance with a chosen surgical plan. The aim of this study was to assess the accuracy of a 3D-printed patient-specific guide for delivering a planned femoral osteotomy for both a posterior and an anterior approach.
Methodology: 40 patients (20 anterior and 20 posterior) scheduled for THA received a preoperative work-up allowing for patient-specific implant sizing and positioning.
Objective: Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-PET/CT has shown considerable promise in the evaluation of prostate cancer bone metastases; however, data utilizing a histopathologic reference standard in this setting are limited. We therefore sought to evaluate the diagnostic performance of PSMA-PET/CT using a consistent histopathologic gold standard in the form of bone biopsy.
Materials And Methods: In this single-center, retrospective study, we identified 80 patients with prostate cancer who underwent CT-guided bone biopsy of a tracer-avid osseous lesion on PSMA-PET/CT performed with F-piflufolastat.
The genus Pristaulacus Kieffer (Hymenoptera, Aulacidae) from Vietnam is revised with eight new species, namely P. alius Long, sp. nov.

- Effective care for critically ill patients in ICU relies on collaboration and communication among healthcare teams, but medication errors during transitions to hospital wards can negatively impact patient outcomes.
- A qualitative study with focus groups aimed to identify necessary changes and develop a theory-informed intervention package to enhance medication safety among ICU patients transitioning to wards.
- The intervention package comprises seven core components for improving medication management, grounded in behavioral change techniques, with specific mechanisms for how each component will enhance patient safety.
Substantial gaps in reporting gonorrhea treatment and prompt ES treatment were observed. Practice-level interventions to facilitate reporting gonorrhea treatment and provide prompt ES treatment are needed.
