Purpose: This is a prospective pair cohort validating study to assess the clinical performance of a 3D ultrasound-guided imaging device (HistoScanning) to detect clinically significant prostate cancer.
Methods: Data was collected prospectively from April 2016 to September 2018 from 200 patients who had their serum PSA levels rising for at least 4 months after previous negative trans rectal ultrasound-guided TRUS biopsy in a single center. All eligible men underwent prostate HistoScanning (PHS) and transperineal template prostate mapping biopsy as our reference standard and additional single targeted biopsy, when PHS device tested positive with a suspicious lesion of ≥0.5 cm3. Our primary goal was to obtain the results of PHS ability to detect clinically significant prostate cancer. Our secondary goal was to acquire data on PHS targeted biopsies.
Results: In our study 200 men were enrolled and their mean age was 62 ±5.9 years. The mean number of previous biopsies was 1.51±0.65. The mean volume for PHS index lesion in any one prostate was 1.56 ±2.01 ml. Clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) was detected in 41 (20.5%) patients on biopsy. Sensitivity of PHS for detecting csPCa was 61.9% (95% CI 45.64-76.43) with specificity 27.85% (95% CI 21-35.53). Positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) for PHS were 18.57% (95% CI 15-22.76) and 73.33% (95% CI 63.45-81.33), respectively. Overall accuracy calculated by AUROC curve was 0.39 (95% CI 0.3-0.47).
Conclusion: PHS performance results of our study on detecting clinically significant prostate cancer were insufficient to include this ultrasound-guided diagnostic test as standard diagnostic tool.

Prostate cancer, a common malignancy in older men, often requires laparoscopic radical prostatectomy, considered the gold standard treatment. However, postoperative complications can significantly impact quality of life and psychological well-being. The emergence of mobile internet health management offers a promising approach for accessible and effective post-discharge care.

Carbon dots (CDs) are versatile nanomaterials that are considered ideal for application in bioimaging, drug delivery, sensing, and optoelectronics owing to their excellent photoluminescence, biocompatibility, and chemical stability features. Nitrogen doping enhances the fluorescence of CDs, alters their electronic properties, and improves their functional versatility. N-doped CDs can be synthesized via solvothermal treatment of carbon sources with nitrogen-rich precursors; however, systematic investigations of their synthesis mechanisms have been rarely reported.

Despite the progress in conventional treatments for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), the 5-year survival rate remains below 70%. Enhancing immunotherapy outcomes through personalized treatment strategies, particularly by identifying immune-related biomarkers, is critical. The ASXL family are associated with malignancies, but their relationship with HNSCC has not been elucidated.

The Restriction Spectrum Imaging restriction score (RSIrs) has been shown to improve the accuracy for diagnosis of clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) compared to standard DWI. Both diffusion and T properties of prostate tissue contribute to the signal measured in DWI, and studies have demonstrated that each may be valuable for distinguishing csPCa from benign tissue. The purpose of this retrospective study was to (1) determine whether prostate T varies across RSI compartments and in the presence of csPCa, and (2) evaluate whether csPCa detection with RSIrs is improved by acquiring multiple scans at different TEs to measure compartmental T (cT).

Globally, prostate cancer is the second most common malignancy in males, with over 400 thousand men dying from the disease each year. A common treatment modality for localized prostate cancer is radiotherapy. However, up to half of high-risk patients can relapse with radiorecurrent prostate cancer, the aggressive clinical progression of which remains severely understudied.
