Purpose: Sleep deprivation and elevated blood pressure (BP) increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases. However, the effects of sleep deprivation on BP response, especially at exercise onset remain unclear. We aimed to elucidate the effects of experimental sleep deprivation (ESD) on resting and exercise BPs, including that at exercise onset, and investigate whether a night-time nap during ESD changes the ESD-altered BP.

Buprenorphine has superior safety in opioid use disorder compared with alternatives due to its action as a partial opioid agonist, which limits its ability to cause respiratory depression. There is a risk of precipitated opioid withdrawal after buprenorphine exposure in someone using full opioid agonists. Buprenorphine induction strategies that avoid precipitated withdrawal remain a crucial component for starting buprenorphine in individuals actively using opioids.

Background: Even though the introduction of 177Lu-PSMA-617 RLT represents a major milestone in the treatment of mCRPC, there are still patients who do not respond adequately to this therapy and for whom there are only limited options left. Augmenting 177Lu-PSMA-617 RLT with the alpha-emitter 225Ac-PSMA-617 may present an escalating treatment option to increase efficacy. In this study, we aim to evaluate outcome and safety of 225Ac-PSMA-617 augmentation to 177Lu-PSMA-617 RLT in patients who present insufficient response to monotherapy with 177Lu-PSMA-617 RLT.
