Lymphocytic Perimyocarditis Masquerading as Steroid-Dependent Recurrent Pericarditis

JACC: Case Reports, 2023
Lymphocytic myocarditis is a pattern of myocardial inflammation typically associated with viral, autoimmune, or idiopathic causes. We present a case of lymphocytic perimyocarditis masquerading as steroid-dependent recurrent pericarditis.

Effects of Fluorodeoxyglucose Conjugated and Unconjugated Iron Oxide Magnetic Nanoparticles on Macrophages: a Pilot Study

Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2021
The effects of fluorodeoxyglucose conjugated iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles (FDGMNP) on macrophages are presented using a yeast substrate. Iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles (MNP) were synthesized by partially reducing FeCl3, then conjugated with (3 ...

Hepatic Positron Emission Tomography: Applications in Metabolism, Haemodynamics and Cancer

Metabolites, 2022
Evaluating in vivo the metabolic rates of the human liver has been a challenge due to its unique perfusion system. Positron emission tomography (PET) represents the current gold standard for assessing non-invasively tissue metabolic rates in vivo.

Prescribing cholinesterase inhibitors in mild cognitive impairment—Observations from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative

Alzheimer’s & Dementia: Translational Research & Clinical Interventions, 2021
Introduction Analyses of off‐label use of acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (AChEIs) in mild cognitive impairment (MCI) has produced mixed results. Post hoc analyses of observational cohorts, such as the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI ...

Construction of an individualized brain metabolic network in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer by the Kullback-Leibler divergence-based similarity method: A study based on 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography

Frontiers in Oncology, 2023
BackgroundLung cancer has one of the highest mortality rates of all cancers, and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for the vast majority (about 85%) of lung cancers.

The hot embolus of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose

World Journal of Nuclear Medicine, 2020
AbstractScanning oncological patients with 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) for their disease staging, evaluation of treatment response, and monitoring/management has become a standard of care. The use of the radioactive fluorine in the FDG molecule helps establish cell/tissue lines high on glucose consumption and hence metabolically active ...

Histometabolic Tumor Imaging of Hypoxia in Oral Cancer: Clinicopathological Correlation for Prediction of an Aggressive Phenotype

Frontiers in Oncology, 2020
IntroductionFluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) is a widely used imaging tool for oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Preliminary studies indicate that quantification of tumor metabolic uptake may correlate with tumor hypoxia and ...
