Liver metastasis of lung cancer detected with similar uptake pattern on bone scintigraphy and fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography: What's the pathophysiologic mechanism?

World Journal of Nuclear Medicine, 2017
Bone scintigraphy with 99mTc diphosphonates may exhibit extraosseous lesions in addition to metastatic lesions. Multiple factors can affect extraosseous 99mTc methylene diphosphonate (MDP) uptake.

Bisphosphonate's and Intermittent Parathyroid Hormone's Effect on Human Spinal Fusion: A Systematic Review of the Literature [PDF]

Asian Spine Journal, 2017
There has been a conscious effort to address osteoporosis in the aging population. As bisphosphonate and intermittent parathyroid hormone (PTH) therapy become more widely prescribed to treat osteoporosis, it is important to understand their effects on ...

Rhenium Radioisotopes for Medicine, a Focus on Production and Applications

Molecules, 2022
In recent decades, the use of alpha; pure beta; or beta/gamma emitters in oncology, endocrinology, and interventional cardiology rheumatology, has proved to be an important alternative to the most common therapeutic regimens. Among radionuclides used for

Effects of diphosphonates in disorders of bone turnover. [PDF]

, 1987
This thesis describes several interrelated studies concerning the effects of diphosphonates in the treatment of disorders of bone turnover. Diphosphonates have previously been shown to suppress bone turnover in Paget's disease when given orally for ...

Advantages of horizontal centrifugation of platelet‐rich fibrin in regenerative medicine and dentistry

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract The aim of this comprehensive review was to evaluate comparative studies on horizontal and fixed‐angle centrifugation methods for preparing platelet‐rich fibrin (PRF). Furthermore, additional studies utilizing horizontal PRF (H‐PRF) were systematically investigated.

Interactions at the Organic/Inorganic Interface:  Molecular Modeling of the Interaction between Diphosphonates and the Surfaces of Barite Crystals

, 2016
Molecular modeling techniques are used to investigate the interaction of alkyldiphosphonate molecular anions with the surfaces of barium sulfate. We show that the most stable sites are on the (100) and (011) surfaces with the [PO3]2- groups of the ...

Comparison of denosumab and oral bisphosphonates for the treatment of glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis: a systematic review and meta-analysis

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2022
Background Both denosumab and bisphosphonates have been demonstrated effective for glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis. However, evidence-based medicine is still lacking to prove the clinical results between denosumab and bisphosphonates.

A methionine‐lined active site governs carbocation stabilization and product specificity in a bacterial terpene synthase

FEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 11, Page 1621-1637, June 2026.
This study reveals a unique active site enriched in methionine residues and demonstrates that these residues play a critical role by stabilizing carbocation intermediates through novel sulfur–cation interactions. Structure‐guided mutagenesis further revealed variants with significantly altered product profiles, enhancing pseudopterosin formation. These

Role of Diphosphonates Bone Scintigraphy in Correlation with Biomarkers for a Personalized Approach to ATTR Cardiac Amyloidosis in North-Eastern Romania

Diagnostics, 2022
Transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis (ATTR) is a rare cardiac protein deposition disease characterized by progressive thickening of both ventricles, the inter-atrial-ventricular septum and the atrioventricular valves. The gold standard method for diagnosing

Diagnostic Features of Discogenic Low Back Pain: A Narrative Review and Suggested Areas for Future Research and Clinical Practice

JOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic low back pain is a leading cause of global disability, with discogenic low back pain (DLBP), mechanically stimulated pain arising from the intervertebral disc, representing an important but often under‐recognized subtype. DLBP arises from chronic structural and metabolic changes within the intervertebral disc, leading to ...
