Background: Despite the existence of a wide variety of anti-inflammatory drugs, the vast majority are classified as steroidal or non-steroidal. Both classes present a variety of side effects that limit usage. Thus, the search for new molecules with anti-inflammatory potential is still important.

Materials And Methods: In this retrospective cross-sectional study, 4508 cases from the U.K.
Aim: To evaluate prostate-specific antigen response (PSAr) defined as a ≥50% decrease in PSA concentration from the pretreatment value, as a prognostic factor in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) treated with abiraterone acetate (AA).
Methods: Retrospective evaluation of patients with mCRPC treated with AA.
Results: 124 patients were identified.

Article Synopsis
- The study explored the effectiveness of combining photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) with static magnetic fields (sMF) using varying energy levels to enhance functional mobility in stroke survivors.
- Conducted as a randomized, placebo-controlled, crossover clinical trial, ten out of twelve recruited patients received different treatments with energy outputs of sham (0 J), 10 J, 30 J, and 50 J, measuring outcomes via the 6-minute walk test (6MWT) and the Timed Up and Go (TUG) test.
- Results indicated that a total energy of 30 J per site produced significant improvements in both mobility tests compared to the sham treatment and baseline, suggesting that PBMT with specific energy levels can positively
