In the literature

Flutemetamol PET was positive in 5 out of 6 patients finally diagnosed with AD, in 1 out of 3 patients finally diagnosed with FTLD and in none of the cases finally diagnosed with “other dementia.” Incremental diagnostic value of FDG-PET Among patients diagnosed with dementia at baseline, the accuracy of the clinical diagnosis with respect to the final diagnosis at follow-up increased from the pre- to the post-FDG-PET diagnosis: from 77 to 90% in patients with AD and from 85 to 94% in patients with FTLD ( p < 0.01, McNemar test) and improved with a trend toward significance in patients with DLB (Table 3 ).
However, as this study was not explicitly designed to identify and test sources that could contribute to variance in DBS treatment outcomes for BE, and, moreover, post hoc analyses did reveal a trend toward significance, further studies will be needed to directly investigate whether variations in electrode placement within the NAc could underlie the observed DBS outcome variance.
These findings echo previous studies which emphasized that time to surgery and bowel viability are the most powerful determinants of outcome.[ 7 8 ] Notably, age >60 years showed a trend toward significance, aligning with prior work indicating reduced physiological reserve as a risk factor.[ 9 ] This reinforces the necessity of early referral, rapid diagnostic workup, and aggressive resuscitation in suspected high-risk cases.
In multivariable Cox regression analyses adjusting for known confounding prognostic factors (myometrial invasion, FIGO grade, and stage and molecular subtype), tumors with FGFR2b +/ FGFR2c − expression remained significantly associated with longer DSS (HR 0.37; 95% CI 0.153–0.872; LRTP <0.023) and OS (HR 0.71; 95% CI 0.409–0.921; LRTP <0.045) and showed a trend toward significance for PFS compared to FGFR2b −/ FGFR2c + (Table 3 ).
