Pneumatic Compression-Assisted Lymphoscintigraphy for Quantitative Evaluation of Breast Cancer-Related Lymphedema
CONCLUSION: Our study suggests that participants in the PCAL group with relatively preserved lymphatic flow extent (FE 3) had better PRV compared with those in the CSL group. The use of IPC devices in lymphoscintigraphy with the novel stress maneuver can help in the quantitative description of lymphedema status and the selection of an appropriate treatment method.PMID:37276486 | DOI:10.1097/RLU.0000000000004722 (Source: Clinical Breast Cancer)

Evaluation of clinical efficacy of tumor necrosis factor ‑α inhibitors in treatment of distal extremity swelling with pitting edema in psoriatic arthritis of inadequate response to conventional therapy: A 10‑year retrospective study
In conclusion, distal extremity swelling with pitting edema, also termed atypical remitting seronegative symmetrical synovitis with pitting edema (RS3PE) syndrome, may represent the initial isolated manifestation of PsA. The atypical RS3PE syndrome in PsA was attributable to inflammation of the tenosynovial structures, and TNFi may serve as a potential treatment.PMID:37206568 | PMC:PMC10189727 | DOI:10.3892/etm.2023.11962 (Source: Experimental and Therapeutic Medicine)

Detection of sentinel lymph node in vulvar cancer using 99mTc-labeled colloid lymphoscintigraphy, blue dye, and indocyanine-green fluorescence: a meta-analysis of studies published in 2010 –2020
ConclusionsThis meta-analysis favors the use of ICG and PL alone and in combination over blue dye for the identification of the SLN in vulvar cancer. Future studies may investigate whether the combined approach allows the highest DR of SLN in patients with vulvar cancer. (Source: Archives of Gynecology and Obstetrics)
