https://www.selleckchem.com/ The role of the cerebellum in neurodegenerative disorders that target cognitive functions has been a subject of increasing interest over the past years. However, a review focused on making clinicians more aware of the role of the cerebellum in dementia is still missing. This narrative review explores the possible factors explaining the involvement of the cerebellum in different kinds of dementia by providing more insights on how this structure can be relevant in clinical practice. It emerged that, despite overlapping in specific areas, structural cerebellar alterations in dementia show a certain degree of disease-specificity. Furthermore, the relevance of cerebellar changes in dementia is corroborated by correlations observed between their topography and cognitive symptomatology, as well as by its previously ignored involvement of the cerebellum in early stages of dementia. Despite needing further investigations, these findings could become a useful diagnostic aid for clinicians that should not be overlooked, in particular for those individuals who do not show distinct and manifest brain or neuropsychological alterations, but that still make clinicians suspect the presence of a neurocognitive disease. Pleomorphic lung carcinoma (PLC) is a rare histotype of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) characterized by aggressive clinical course, poor response to therapy and poor prognosis. Therefore, aim of our study is to analyze with 18F-FDG PET/CT a subset of patients affected by PLC to evaluate their metabolic characteristics in terms of SUVmax, MTV and TLG, in order to correlate them with overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS). We retrospectively analyzed 49 consecutive patients with histologically defined PLC occurred to our Institution between 2003 and 2014. All patients underwent F18-FDG PET-CT before surgery and primary tumor was automatically segmented using an isocontour threshold method. SUV threshold for tumor segmentati
