Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis indicated that the NRS score for sore throat predicted a swallowing disturbance-free status on POD 30. The optimal cutoff values were ≤ 4 and ≤ 2 on PODs 1 and 2, respectively. The adjusted odds ratio (OR) for independent predictors was a sore throat NRS score of ≤ 4 on POD 1 (OR 3.2; 95% CI 1.29-7.89; P = 0.012) and score of ≤ 2 on POD 2 (OR 6.67; 95% CI 2.41-18.47; P  less then  0.001). Therefore, tracheal intubation mode did not affect the incidence of post-ACSS swallowing disturbance, and the severity of sore throat on PODs 1 and 2 could predict a swallowing disturbance-free status on POD 30.The trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov (Trial No. NCT03240042, date of registration 10/17/2017). Positron emission tomography (PET) using small ligands of the fibroblast activation protein (FAP) was recently introduced. However, optimal uptake time has not been defined yet. Here, we systematically compare early (~ 10min p.i.) and late (~ 60min p.i.) FAPI-46 imaging in patients with various types of cancer. This is a retrospective single-institutional study. Imaging was performed at the Essen University Hospital, Germany. A total of 69 patients who underwent dual time-point imaging for either restaging (n = 52, 75%) or staging (n = 17, 25%) of cancer were included. Patients underwent PET with two acquisitions early (mean 11min, SD 4) and late (mean 66min, SD 9). Mean injected activity was 148MBq (SD 33). In total, 400 lesions were detected in 69 patients. Two of 400 (0.5%) lesions were only seen in early time-point imaging but not in late time-point imaging. On a per-patient level, there was no significant difference between SUV of hottest tumor lesions (Wilcoxon P = 0.73). Organ uptake demonstrated significant early to late decrease in SUVmean (average ∆SUVmean - 0.48, - 0.14, - 0.27 for gluteus, liver, an
