One-day dual-tracer examination in neuroendocrine neoplasms: a real advantage of low activity LAFOV PET imaging.
Eur J Nucl Med Mol Imaging
January 2025
Nuclear Medicine and Clinical Molecular Imaging, University Hospital Tuebingen, Otfried-Mueller-Str. 14, 72076, Tuebingen, Germany.
Purpose: Somatostatin receptor (SSTR)-PET is crucial for effective treatment stratification of neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs). In highly proliferating or poorly differentiated NENs, dual-tracer approaches using additional [F]FDG PET can effectively identify SSTR-negative disease, usually requiring separate imaging sessions. We evaluated the feasibility of a one-day dual-tracer imaging protocol with a low activity [F]FDG PET followed by an SSTR-PET using the recently introduced [F]SiFAlin-TATE tracer in a long axial field-of-view (LAFOV) PET/CT scanner and its implications in patient management.

Ann Med
December 2025
Graduate Institute of Injury Prevention and Control, Taipei Medical University, Taipei, Taiwan, ROC.
Background: The reverse shock index multiplied by simplified motor score (rSI-sMS) is a novel and rapid measure for assessing injury severity in patients with trauma in prehospital settings; however, its discriminant ability requires further validation.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted from trauma database of Taipei Tzu Chi Hospital to compare the accuracy of the rSI-sMS with that of the shock index, modified shock index, reverse shock index multiplied by the Glasgow Coma Scale (rSI-GCS), and the reverse shock index multiplied by GCS motor subscale (rSI-GCSM) for discriminating in-hospital mortality, intensive care unit (ICU) admissions, prolonged ICU stays ≥14 days, and prolonged hospital stays ≥30 days in patients with trauma.
Results: A total of 11,760 patients from the trauma database were included.
Leveraging Model-Based Simulations to Optimize Extended Dosing of Leuprolide 6-Month Intramuscular Depot Formulation.
Eur J Drug Metab Pharmacokinet
January 2025
School of Pharmacy, National Defense Medical Center, Taipei, Taiwan.
Background And Objective: A gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist such as leuprolide is widely used to achieve sustained suppression of testosterone levels, which play a critical role in the treatment of prostate cancer. Recent advances in drug delivery systems have led to the development of long-acting depot formulations, such as the 6-month intramuscular (IM) leuprolide formulation, which aim to simplify dosing and improve convenience for both patients and healthcare providers. Exploring extended dosing intervals for such formulations represents a promising approach to further optimize treatment regimens, potentially balancing efficacy with patient-centered care.

Int Ophthalmol
January 2025
Department of Ophthalmology, The Second Hospital of Jilin University, Changchun, Jilin, China.
Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy and complications of simplified graded inferior oblique anterior transposition (IOAT) in treating at least 10 PD vertical deviation in the primary position and inferior oblique muscle overaction (IOOA).
Methods: This retrospective study reviewed the medical records of 65 patients treated with simplified graded IOAT procedures for both vertical deviation and IOOA. Patients were grouped according to vertical deviation in the primary position.
Impact of pharmaceutical care on adherence to tyrosine kinase inhibitors in chronic myeloid leukaemia.
Farm Hosp
January 2025
Servicio de Farmacia, Complejo Hospitalario Universitario de Canarias, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, España; Unidad de Investigación, Complejo Hospitalario Universitario de Canarias, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, España. Electronic address:
Aims: Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have been successful in changing the course of chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) due to their high efficacy. However, their effectiveness is conditioned by adherence to treatment. The aim of this study was to analyse the adherence of CML patients treated with TKIs and to evaluate the impact of pharmaceutical care on adherence in a prospective and interventional manner.
