State of the art and future perspectives of new radionuclides in Nuclear Medicine.

This continuing education analyzes recent advances in Nuclear Medicine focused on the development of new radiopharmaceuticals that improve both the diagnosis and treatment of complex diseases. The focus is on teragnosis, which combines diagnosis and treatment by means of pairs of radiopharmaceuticals directed to the same molecular target, which allows the personalization of treatments. This first part specifically reviews the teragnostic pairs copper-64/copper-67, lead-212/lead-203 and scandium-44/scandium-47, highlighting their physical characteristics, methods of production and potential clinical applications.

Reactive oxygen species favors Varicellovirus bovinealpha 5 (BoAHV-5) replication in neural cells.

Varicellovirus bovinealpha (BoAHV) 1 and 5 are closely related neurotropic alphaherpesviruses with distinct neuropathogenic potential. BoAHV-5 causes meningoencephalitis in calves whereas encephalitis by BoAHV-1 infection is sporadic. the mechanisms underlying the differences in tropism and clinical outcomes of the infections are not yet completely understood.

Active restoration increases tree species richness and recruitment of large-seeded taxa after 16-18 years.

Tropical forest restoration presents a potential lifeline to mitigate climate change and biodiversity crises in the Anthropocene. Yet, the extent to which human interventions, such as tree planting, accelerate the recovery of mature functioning ecosystems or redirect successional trajectories toward novel states remains uncertain due to a lack of long-term experiments. In 2004-2006, we established three 0.

Exploring Perceived Gender Disparities in Latin America's Vascular Neurology Workforce: Insights from a Survey-Based Study.

Introduction: Limited research exists on women's challenges as specialized healthcare professionals in Latin America's stroke field. This survey-based study addresses the potential gender disparities in these professionals' work environments.

Methods: This exploratory study used an online survey to investigate the work environment of women healthcare professionals in stroke across several Latin American countries.

Comparison of staging using [Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT and histopathological results in intermediate- and high-risk prostate cancer patients treated with radical prostatectomy and pelvic lymph node dissection.

Objective: To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of [Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT (PET-PSMA) in local and loco-regional nodal staging compared with histopathological results in intermediate- and high-risk prostate cancer patients treated with radical prostatectomy (RP) and pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND).

Materials Y Methods: A total of 122 intermediate- and high-risk prostate cancer (PCa) patients staged with PET-PSMA and treated with RP (36/122) and RP plus PLND (86/122) from December 2018 to December 2023 were included. Visual and semiquantitative analysis findings using the SUVmax of the molecular imaging were correlated with histopathological results.
