Brain and CNS cancers (collectively referred to as cancers) are a source of mortality morbidity for which diagnosis treatment require extensive resource allocation sophisticated diagnostic therapeutic technology. Previous epidemiological studies limited specific geographical regions or time periods, making them difficult compare on global scale. In this analysis, we aimed provide comparable comprehensive estimation the burden brain cancer between 1990 2016.We report means 95% uncertainty...
High prevalence of diabetes has been reported in the Americas, but no comprehensive analysis burden and related factors for region is available. We aimed to describe type 1 2 that hyperglycaemia Americas from 1990 2019.We used estimates GBD 2019 evaluate adults aged 20 years or older high fasting plasma glucose 25 39 countries territories six regions 2019. The main source estimate mortality attributable chronic kidney disease due was vital registration. Mortality overall (ie, disease)...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the value an 18 F-FDG PET/CT-based interpretation system (Hopkins criteria) assess therapy response and survival in lung cancer.Methods: This is Institutional Review Board-approved, retrospective study.A total 201 patients with biopsy-proven cancer, who underwent assessment PET/CT within 6 mo (mean, 7.5 wk) completion treatment, were included.Patients primarily treated surgical resection, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or a combination these...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact intratumoral metabolic heterogeneity and quantitative FDG PET/CT imaging parameters for predicting patient outcomes in primary oropharyngeal squamous cell cancer (OPSCC).
Radiotracers targeting prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) have increasingly been recognized as showing uptake in a number of normal structures, anatomic variants, and non-prostate-cancer pathologies. We aimed to explore the frequency degree peripheral ganglia patients undergoing PET with PSMA-targeted agent 18F-DCFPyL.A total 98 who underwent 18F-DCFPyL PET/CT imaging were retrospectively analyzed. This included 76 men prostate cancer (PCa) 22 renal cell carcinoma (RCC; 13 men, 9...
