Theragnostics represents one of the most innovative fields of precision medicine with a huge potential in the field of oncology in the next years. The use of a pair of selective radiopharmaceuticals for cellular receptors, used for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes (PRRT), finds applications in the Neuroendocrine tumors and metastatic Castration-Resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) thanks, respectively, to somatostatin receptor agonists and PSMA-based peptides. Further evolutions of theragnostics will be possible to the radioimmunoconjugates used both in the diagnostic (Immuno-PET) and in the therapeutic fields (radioimmunotherapy). It is evident that in the "omics-era," theragnostics could become a necessary method, not only in order to improve our knowledge of tumor biology, but also, to find more and more targeted therapies in a multidisciplinary context and in a tailor-based approach.

20% acute pancreatitis (AP) develops into severe AP (SAP), a global health crisis, with an increased mortality rate to 30%-50%. Mitochondrial damage and immune disorders are direct factors, which exacerbate the occurrence and progression of AP. So far, mitochondrial and immunity injury in SAP remains largely elusive, with no established treatment options available.

Background: University students in Saudi Arabia are embracing some of the negative traits of the fast-paced modern lifestyle, typified by unhealthy eating, low physical activity, and poor sleep habits that may increase their risk for poor health. Health and holistic well-being at the population level are among the priorities of the 2030 vision of a vibrant society in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The current study thus aims at determining the prevalence and predictive factors of Suboptimal Health Status (SHS) among university students.
