This study tested a special radioactive tracer (68GaNOTA-Anti-HER2 VHH1) to see if it can find HER2-positive brain metastases on PET/CT scans. Seven adult cancer patients with at least one brain lesion were enrolled. The goal was to compare tracer uptake in HER2-positive versus H…

This study tested a new radioactive tracer (68GaNOTA-Anti-MMR-VHH2) that aims to make tumors visible on PET scans by targeting immune cells called macrophages that are often found around cancers. The trial involved 13 adults with advanced solid tumors, breast cancer, or melanoma.…

This study tested a special imaging agent (68GaNOTA-anti-MMR-VHH2) that uses PET scans to find certain immune cells (macrophages) in the body. It included 29 adults with head and neck cancer, atherosclerosis, lymphoma, or sarcoidosis. The goal was to see if this scan could help p…

This study compared two types of nerve blocks (SAPB and ESPB) to manage pain after hybrid arrhythmia ablation surgery. It involved 28 adults aged 18-80. The goal was to see which block worked better for pain, breathing, and recovery. The study was terminated early.

This study looked at whether using a special device to measure blood flow in tiny vessels under the tongue, along with standard monitoring, could help patients recover faster after major vascular surgery. The researchers planned to compare hospital stay lengths between two groups…

This study aimed to find out how many people experience short-term and long-term pain after a type of heart surgery called hybrid arrhythmia ablation. Researchers surveyed patients who had the procedure at least three months earlier to learn about their pain levels and what treat…

This study looked at whether routinely measuring a heart enzyme (hsTnT) in patients 75 and older having major surgery could predict complications. Researchers tracked enzyme levels and checked if high levels were linked to longer hospital stays or death within 30 days. The study …

This study compared a new device, the Proxima 3®, to the standard hospital method for measuring oxygen, carbon dioxide, and other substances in the blood. Researchers wanted to see if the new device gives accurate and reliable results quickly. The study included 20 adult patients…
