Objective. To evaluate the effectiveness of three-month fluoride varnish application on radiation caries and dental sensitivity and to assess compliance to three-month fluoride varnish application. Materials and Methods. 190 irradiated head and neck cancer patients were randomly selected and
The consumption of drinking water rich in fluoride has toxic effects on the central nervous system. In cell biology research, fluoride is currently used as a phosphatase inhibitor. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of fluoride on different physiological processes in GH4C1
Endometrial cancer (EC) is one of the most common types of gynecologic cancer of the female genital tract; it considered being the fourth leading death factor among other types of cancer. Therefore, developing new anti-cancer agents are crucial for cancer treatment. Based on the potential of Schiff
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this study is to assess compliance with fluoride gel custom trays in irradiated head and neck cancer patients.
METHODS
One hundred fifty-five consecutive patients on remission following radiation therapy of head and neck cancers were assessed retrospectively for dental care
For all the 121 municipalities in Southern Norway where 60% or more of the inhabitants get water from registered water supplies, the municipal average concentration of natural fluoride in the water has been determined and the municipalities divided into three groups with fluoride level 0--0.05 mg/1,
The use of positron emission tomography (PET) in clinical oncology continues to increase and although there is now a large literature on the use of PET with various tracers in a wide variety of cancers, there has previously been relatively little use specifically in the evaluation of skeletal
BACKGROUND
Artificial fluoridation of drinking water to improve dental health has long been a topic of controversy. Opponents of this public health measure have cited the possibility of bone cancer induction. The study objective was to examine whether increased risk of primary bone cancer was
In mice local or systemic administration of fluoride (5-25 mg NaF/kg body weight) during the proliferative phase of bone formation (up to 20 days) has no effect on the yield of bone formed either by local stimulation of periosteal membrane by Moloney sarcoma virus-induced tumour or on bone induced
The synthesis, radiolabeling, and initial evaluation of new silicon-fluoride acceptor (SiFA) derivatized octreotate derivatives is reported. So far, the main drawback of the SiFA technology for the synthesis of PET-radiotracers is the high lipophilicity of the resulting radiopharmaceutical.
We describe the role of 18F-sodium fluoride (18F-NaF) PET/CT bone scanning in the staging of breast and prostate cancer. 18F-NaF PET was initially utilized as a bone scanning agent in the 1960s and early 1970s, however, its use was restricted by the then-available γ-cameras. The advent of hybrid
OBJECTIVE
To compare 18F-sodium fluoride positron emission tomography/computed tomography (NaF PET/CT) and 99mTc-labelled diphosphonate bone scan (BS) for the monitoring of bone metastases in patients with prostate cancer undergoing anti-cancer treatment.
METHODS
Data from 64 patients with prostate
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this prospective study was to compare the potential value of (18)F fluorocholine (FCH) and (18)F fluoride positron emission tomography (PET)-CT scanning for the detection of bony metastases from prostate cancer.
METHODS
Thirty-eight men (mean age, 69+/-8 years) with
Targeted biological contrast agents are emerging as promising candidates in the field of cancer theragnostics. Herein, we report an ambient temperature synthesis of a nanosized, antibody functionalized lanthanide doped CaF2 biolabel and demonstrate in vitro its potential for cancer cell
Excessive bone formation is an important hallmark of AS. Recently it has been demonstrated that axial bony lesions in AS patients can be visualized using 18F-fluoride PET-CT. The aim of this study was to assess whether 18F-fluoride uptake in clinically active AS patients is related to focal bone
Disulfiram (DSF), an FDA approved drug for the treatment of alcoholism, has shown its effectiveness against diverse cancer types. Thus, we developed a disulfiram-loaded scaffold using the electrospinning method to enhance the stability of DSF and to facilitate its appropriate distribution to tumor
