Objective: To evaluate the correlation between response assessment measured by PET/CT with [F] F-fluorocholine (Choline PET/CT) and serum levels of PSA in patients with prostate cancer under antiandrogenic treatment.
Methodology: A retrospective study included patients with CRPC and CSPC treated with enzalutamide, abiraterone, or apalutamide between June 2018 and July 2021, who underwent baseline and a follow-up Choline PET/CT. The difference in maximum SUVmax (ΔSUV) between both studies and the PSA value before and at follow-up were recorded.
Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma are the two most prevalent chronic respiratory diseases, significantly impacting public health. Utilizing clinical questionnaires to identify and differentiate patients with COPD and asthma for further diagnostic procedures has emerged as an effective strategy to address this issue. We developed a new diagnostic tool, the COPD-Asthma Differentiation Questionnaire (CAD-Q), to differentiate between COPD and asthma in adults.

Here, we use multiomics analyses to examine the genetics of variation in tooth crown dimensions. In a human cohort with mixed continental ancestry, we detected genome-wide significant associations at 18 genome regions.

Through the prism of the attachment theory, this phenomenon can be understood as a manifestation of the patient's insecure attachment style, needing a highly-responsive care delivery. We developed an electronic health mobile application, co-designed with patients, aimed at helping healthcare teams respond to their patients' needs, and fostering adherence to care.
