Precordial mapping was employed to examine 29 patients with acute anterior transmural myocardial infarction (MI). Seventeen of them received intravenous streptokinase, eleven underwent symptomatic therapy. The size of the lesion was assessed in the course of the disease. It is shown that streptokinase administration within the initial 6 hours of MI promotes arrest of the ischemic lesion augmentation and eventually diminishes the area of MI.

Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) is strongly recommended by current clinical guidelines for improved detection of clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa). However, the major limitations are the need for intravenous (IV) contrast and dependence on reader expertise. Efforts to address these issues include use of biparametric magnetic resonance imaging (bpMRI) and advanced, quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques.

Background: Chemotherapy-induced nausea and/or vomiting (CINV) is an intractable adverse effect of anticancer drugs. Although prophylactic use of fosaprepitant may be effective in reducing CINV, there is a lack of studies evaluating the application of fosaprepitant in real world.
Aims And Methods: This study prospectively observed the effectiveness and safety for the prophylaxis of CINV in a real-world clinical setting.

Introduction: Stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP) is a major cause of mortality during the acute phase of stroke. The ADS score is widely used to predict SAP risk but does not include 24-h non-contrast computed tomography-Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score (NCCT-ASPECTS) or red cell distribution width (RDW). We aim to evaluate the added prognostic value of incorporating 24-h NCCT-ASPECTS and RDW into the ADS score and to develop a novel prediction model for SAP following thrombolysis.

Purpose: This preclinical study explored the feasibility of assessing P-glycoprotein (P-gp) function in both brain and gastrointestinal (GI) tract of rats using positron emission tomography (PET) following oral administration of [F]MC225. Different oral administration protocols were evaluated, and radioactivity uptake was compared with uptake following intravenous administration.
Procedures: Twelve male Wistar rats were divided into four groups and subjected to intravenous or oral [F]MC225 administration protocols: G (intravenous route), G (oral administration without fasting), G (oral administration with fasting), and G (oral administration with fasting following administration of the P-gp inhibitor tariquidar).
Background: Based on preclinical data showing addition of CDK4/6 inhibitors to gemcitabine was synergistic, ribociclib was evaluated in combination with gemcitabine to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and dose limiting toxicities (DLT).
Methods: In this single arm multicohort phase I trial, we evaluated the safety and efficacy of ribociclib plus gemcitabine in patients with advanced solid tumors. Patients received gemcitabine intravenously on days 1 and 8 followed by ribociclib days 8-14, with treatment repeated every 3 weeks.
