Background And Objective: The depth of the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) decline after androgen receptor pathway inhibitor (ARPI) treatment combined with androgen deprivation therapy for patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) may affect prognosis. The primary objective in our study was the correlation between the PSA response at 3 mo and radiologic progression-free survival (rPFS) at 24 mo. Three groups were defined according to the PSA decline: complete response (PSA ≤0.

The Thrombosis Risk Prediction for Patients with Cast Immobilisation-TRiP(cast)-score could identify a large subgroup of patients at low risk of venous thromboembolism for whom prophylactic anticoagulation can be safely withheld. We aimed to prospectively assess the safety of withholding anticoagulation for patients with lower limb trauma at low risk of venous thromboembolism, defined by a TRiP(cast) score of less than 7.

- * A hospital team member and six others developed skin lesions after handling a cat with severe injuries, leading to mycological tests that confirmed the presence of Sporothrix brasiliensis.
- * The findings emphasize the need for differential diagnosis and the use of personal protective equipment when dealing with potentially infected animals, especially in regions where the disease is endemic.
Two auricular epithesis surgical cases retained by a custom titanium implant: result at four years.

Introduction: This article aims at describing the four-year outcome of a surgical procedure implanting a patient specific epithesis system in two patients.
Technical Note: After virtual 3D reconstruction of the anatomy and mirroring of the healthy ear, the position of the three Locator attachments were optimized in the software to embed them as accurately as possible in the planned episthesis antihelix. The personalized plate bearing the three Locator implants was then manufactured.
