The Aim The Study: To analyze the density of the mandible in cancer patients during treatment with zoledronic acid.
Materials And Methods: A retrospective cohort study included 45 patients with cancer aged 26-81 years (average age 55±12.88 years), of whom 14 patients had bone metastases (=14) and took 4 mg of zolendronic acid once every 28 days.

Prostate cancer is the most diagnosed malignancy in men in the United States and the second leading cause of cancer-related death. For localized disease, radiation therapy is a standard treatment that is often curative. For metastatic disease, radiation therapy has been primarily used for palliation, however, several newer systemic radiation therapies have been demonstrated to significantly improve patient outcomes and improve survival.

Introduction: β-ray strontium-89 (Sr-89) intra-irradiation therapy has been approved and clinically used to reduce bone metastasis pain not alleviated by bone-modifying agents, external radiation, and analgesic agents. We examined the efficacy of zoledronic acid (ZOL) and Sr-89 combination therapy compared with ZOL alone in breast cancer patients with bone metastases.
Materials And Methods: A randomized controlled trial was conducted on breast cancer patients with bone metastasis to compare the efficacy between ZOL monotherapy and ZOL plus Sr-89 combination therapy.
A novel approach for rapid Sr determination in seawater samples is developed. For the first time in the radioanalytical application, the features of the synthetic zeolite Z4A and a highly selective material for Sr separation were synergically employed. Seawater composition significantly reduces Sr yield on highly selective solid-phase extraction materials, making the preconcentration step essentially important but laborious and time-consuming.
