objective(s): the ability to measure cellular proliferation non-invasively in renal cell carcinoma may allow prediction of tumour aggressiveness and response to therapy. the aim of this study was to evaluate the uptake of 18ffluorothymidine (flt) pet in renal cell carcinoma (rcc), and to compare this to 18f-fluorodeoxyglucose (fdg), and to an immunohistochemical measure of cellular proliferatio...

A multitracer stable isotope study of lysine kinetics was carried out in fasted adult female volunteers to determine whether a multicompartmental model that partitions protein synthesis and breakdown into at least two types of tissue components can be constructed from plasma and breath data. Five female subjects, maintained on formula diets, received L-113CIlysine (27 Mmol/ kg) as an i.v. bolus...

BACKGROUND Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) and Parkinson's disease dementia (PDD), which share many clinical, neurochemical, and morphological features, have been incorporated into DSM-5 as two separate entities of major neurocognitive disorders with Lewy bodies. Despite clinical overlap, their diagnosis is based on an arbitrary distinction concerning the time of onset of motor and cognitive sy...
