Total Lesion Glycolysis Improves Tumor Burden Evaluation and Risk Assessment at Diagnosis in Hodgkin Lymphoma.

Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) is a hematological malignancy with an excellent prognosis. However, we still need to identify those patients that could experience failed standard frontline chemotherapy. Tumor burden evaluation and standard decisions are based on Ann Arbor (AA) staging, but this approach may be insufficient in predicting outcomes.

High (20-Hz) and low (1-Hz) frequency transcranial magnetic stimulation as adjuvant treatment in medication-resistant depression.

Studies of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in depression have found antidepressant effects when high frequency stimulation (HF-rTMS; >1 Hz) is applied over the left prefrontal cortex (LPF). A few studies have also reported success with low frequency stimulation (LF-rTMS) to the right prefrontal cortex (RPF). Both HF-rTMS and LF-rTMS have been reported to work better in areas with cerebral hypometabolism or hypermetabolism, respectively.
