Importance Combination therapy for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) has been widely adopted, yet clinical use and outcomes are unknown. Furthermore, optimal is uncertain due to lack of direct comparison androgen receptor pathway inhibitors (ARPIs) docetaxel in high-volume disease. Objective To evaluate the combination its association with overall survival among patients mHSPC compare ARPIs vs doublet by volume Design, Setting, Participants This retrospective...
Background Perfusion deficits contribute to symptom severity, morbidity, and death in peripheral artery disease (PAD); however, no standard method for quantifying absolute measures of skeletal muscle perfusion exists. This study sought preclinically test clinically translate a positron emission tomography (PET) imaging approach using an atherosclerosis‐targeted radionuclide, fluorine‐18‐sodium fluoride ( 18 F‐NaF), quantify PAD. Methods Results Eight Yorkshire pigs underwent unilateral...
Abstract Background Positron emission tomography (PET)/computed (CT) imaging with fluorine-18 ( 18 F)-sodium fluoride (NaF) provides assessment of active vascular microcalcification, but its utility for evaluating diabetes mellitus (DM)- and chronic kidney disease (CKD)-induced atherosclerosis in peripheral arterial (PAD) has not been comprehensively evaluated. This study sought to use F-NaF PET/CT quantify compare microcalcification on an artery-by-artery basis healthy subjects, PAD...
Objective: Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is associated with increased risk of nonhealing ulcers, amputation, and mortality due to occlusive atherosclerotic plaques. Computed tomography (CT) imaging detects vascular calcification in PAD; however, quantitative vessel-by-vessel analysis calcium burden the feet PAD patients has not been assessed. This study sought perform vessel-specific examine patient-level determinants foot patients. Approach: (n = 41) were prospectively enrolled underwent...
Vascular calcification contributes to morbidity and poor clinical outcomes for patients with peripheral artery disease; however, the traditional assessment of calcium burden using computed tomography (CT) imaging or angiography represents already established disease. In present report, we describe a 69-year-old man chronic limb-threatening ischemia who had undergone positron emission tomography/CT fluorine-18 sodium fluoride evaluate relationship between baseline levels tomography-detectable...
Introduction: Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is an atherosclerotic that promotes lower extremity ischemia and associated with necrosis, limb loss, premature death. Fluorine-18 sodium fluoride ( 18 F-NaF) PET/CT imaging has been utilized for early detection of calcific progression in the coronary arteries; however, this technique not assessed PAD to predict developing arterial calcification. Hypothesis: We hypothesized F-NaF could identify sites undergoing active microcalcification formation...
