Long-term brain pressure monitoring via a discrete microimplant; a first-in-human safety and initial efficacy trial in adults and children with hydrocephalus
Emerging neurotechnologies such as brain-computer interfaces and implantable sensors offer considerable promise in the treatment of a broad range of neurological conditions. The key challenges are reducing the implant size, powering it, and confirming long-term accuracy and safety. Here we report the development of a novel type of implantable medical device that measures intracranial pressure…

Double-blind randomized control trial investigating immediate changes in pain processing measures in response to dry needling to the lumbar multifidus in an asymptomatic population
CONCLUSION: A significant main effect was observed in response to DN and sham DN local to the intervention site. This finding suggests peripherally mediated shared mechanisms between DN and sham DN. Baseline pain modulatory efficiency and post-intervention expectations may be indicators of individuals who will experience a greater analgesic response to needling interventions.

![[177Lu]-PSMA-617-PSMA-617 in oligometastatic hormone sensitive prostate cancer (BULLSEYE): an open-label, randomised, phase 2 study](https://i.aidevmd.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/itinai.com_biomedical_laboratory_close-up_still_scene_close-u_e4996bf4-1113-41b3-8fdd-0d1e6c918068_0.png)
[177Lu]-PSMA-617-PSMA-617 in oligometastatic hormone sensitive prostate cancer (BULLSEYE): an open-label, randomised, phase 2 study
BACKGROUND: [^(177)Lu]Lu-prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-617 (^(177)Lu-PSMA-617) is a novel treatment for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. Here, we aimed to evaluate ^(177)Lu-PSMA-617 in patients with PSMA-expressing oligometastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (HSPC).

Comparative analysis of postoperative pain following bioceramic sealer application with three obturation methods: A randomized controlled trial
CONCLUSIONS: The sealer-based and hot modified methods significantly reduced postoperative pain compared to traditional techniques. These findings support the clinical adoption of innovative bioceramic sealer techniques to optimize pain management and patient satisfaction.

Novel application for the JAK inhibitor baricitinib in the treatment of Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease: a prospective cohort study
CONCLUSION: This study demonstrates that baricitinib is a promising therapeutic option for both early- and late-stage VKH disease. It effectively controls choroidal inflammation, improves visual function, and allows for a substantial reduction in corticosteroid burden with a favorable safety profile.

Sex Differences in Statin Intolerance: Insights From the CLEAR Outcomes Trial
CONCLUSIONS: This is the only cardiovascular outcomes trial to date that exclusively enrolled patients with statin intolerance, and the largest contemporary study of lipid lowering therapy in females, a group historically underrepresented in clinical trials. Bempedoic acid was equally tolerated by both sexes and represents a viable alternative to statins to reduce cardiovascular risk.

Vonoprazan Versus Tegoprazan-Amoxicillin Dual Therapy for Treatment-Naïve Patients With Helicobacter pylori Infection: A Prospective, Multicenter, Open-Label, Randomized Controlled Study
CONCLUSION: Vonoprazan/amoxicillin dual therapy achieved satisfactory H. pylori eradication rates with a favorable safety profile in treatment-naïve patients. Tegoprazan/amoxicillin dual therapy was associated with fewer gastrointestinal adverse event incidences, while optimizing tegoprazan dosing frequency may be necessary to improve the eradication.
