Objective: Identifying prognostic markers for clinical outcomes is crucial in selecting appropriate treatment options for patients with radioiodine-refractory (RAI-R) differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC). The aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic value of clinico-pathological features and semiquantitative [F]FDG PET/CT metabolic parameters in predicting progression-free survival (PFS) in DTC patients with RAI-R.
Patients And Methods: This prospective cohort study included 110 consecutive RAI-R DTC patients who were referred for [F]FDG PET/CT imaging.

Diffuse midline glioma (DMG), H3 K27-altered, is a WHO grade 4 malignant glioma located at midline structures, including the thalamus, brainstem and spinal cord. While H3 K27-altered DMG is more common in pediatric age in which it shows a uniformly aggressive clinical behavior, its occurrence is relatively unusual among adults, and its clinico-pathological and prognostic features are not fully characterized in this age group. In this present paper, a review of the literature, including all cases of adult H3 K27-altered DMG published from January 2010 to December 2023 was performed, and the following clinical parameters were evaluated: sex, age (median and range), anatomic site, median follow-up, leptomeningeal dissemination, local recurrence and treatment.

Purpose: To uncover the underpinnings of acquired resistance (AR) to immunotherapy (IO), we determined whether distinctive clinico-pathological, radiomic and peripheral blood (PB) immune-inflammatory features reflect oligo- and systemic (sys)-AR in advanced NSCLC patients undergoing immune checkpoints inhibitors.
Experimental Design: On 105 consecutive IO-treated advanced NSCLC, PB immunophenotypes, cytokines and CT-derived radiomic features (RFs), extracted from primary and merged metastatic lesions, were prospectively collected at baseline (T0) and first disease assessment (T1, 9-12 weeks), and their delta (Δ) variation [(T1-T0)/T0] computed. AR, defined as progression after initial response (complete/partial) or stable disease ≥ 6 months, was subdivided according to the number of new and/or progressive lesions in oligoAR (≤3) and sysAR (>3).

Introduction: Metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint dislocation and its pathoanatomy was first discussed in detail in an article written by Kaplan et al . ,in 1957. They had identified certain features of complex, that is irreducible MCP joint dislocation through closed method to differentiate from a simple MCP joint dislocation, that is MCP joint dislocation that can be reduced by closed method.
