F-FAPI-42 PET/CT and F-FDG PET/CT in Patients with Malignant Digestive System Neoplasms: A Head-to-Head Comparative Study.

Purpose: Radionuclide-labeled fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (FAPI) is an emerging tumor tracer. We sought to assess the uptake and diagnostic performance of F-FAPI-42 PET/CT compared with simultaneous 2-deoxy-2[F]fluoro-D-glucose (F-FDG) PET/CT in primary and metastatic lesions in patients with malignant digestive system neoplasms and to determine the potential clinical benefit.

Procedures: Forty-two patients (men = 30, women = 12, mean age = 56.

The outcome of isolated calf muscle vein thrombosis after open reduction and internal fixation for closed intra-articular distal femur fractures: a prospective cohort study.

Background: To observe the outcome of isolated calf muscle vein thrombosis (ICMVT) undergoing open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) for closed intra-articular distal femur fractures (DFFs) and to analyze related factors.

Methods: The study was designed as a prospective clinical cohort study at our hospital. From August 2018 to August 2020,a total of 140 patients with flesh ICMVT after ORIF for closed intra-articular DFFs were collected during hospitalization.
