Use of 18F-NaF PET in the staging of skeletal metastases of newly diagnosed, high-risk prostate cancer patients: a nationwide cohort study by Christian Torp-Pedersen, Mette Nørgaard, Helle D Zacho, Lars J Petersen, Anna Winther Mogensen, Marie T Pank

“…Objective To determine whether preoperative staging of high-risk prostate cancer with 18F-sodium-fluoride (18F-NaF) positron emission tomography (PET) reduces the risk of skeletal metastases.Design Nationwide, population-based cohort study using real-world data.Setting The study used national health registries, including all sites in Denmark from 2011 to 2018.Participants Newly diagnosed high-risk prostate cancer patients who underwent radical prostatectomy from 2011 to 2018. Patients were stratified into two groups according to the preoperative imaging modality of either 18F-NaF PET or bone scintigraphy.Main outcome measures The risk of skeletal-related events (SREs) as a proxy for skeletal metastases following radical prostatectomy. …”

Blogging down a dictatorship by Last Moyo

“…The article frames these practices within theories of alternative media and citizen journalism and argues that digitisation has occasioned new counter-hegemonic spaces and new forms of journalism that are deinstitutionalised and deprofessionalised, and whose radicalism is reflected in both form and content. I argue that this radicalism in part articulates a postmodern philosophy and style as seen in its rejection of the elaborate codes and conventions of mainstream journalism. …”
