Integrating single-cell multi-omics and machine learning to reveal triaptosis heterogeneity in clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

Triaptosis, an emerging form of cell death, remains poorly characterized in terms of its heterogeneity within clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). Utilizing single-cell transcriptomics, we delineate a landscape of triaptosis heterogeneity and identify monocytes and macrophages as exhibiting the highest triaptosis activity, which further increases upon terminal differentiation. These high-activ...

Deep Learning Morphometric Analysis on Protocol Biopsies Predicts Future Graft Function.

INTRODUCTION: The predictive value of Banff classification in protocol transplant biopsies without specific lesions is limited. Morphometry provides precise data on microstructures, surpassing semiquantitative scores but is time-consuming. This study evaluates whether automated morphometric analysis with deep learning can predict glomerular filtration rate at 3 years using machine learning. METHOD...

Association between the endothelial activation and stress index and 28-day all-cause mortality in critically ill patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: a retrospective cohort study and predictive model establishment based on machine learning.

BACKGROUND: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) remains a major global health burden and is currently the third leading cause of death worldw...

Multi-omics data mining combined with experimental validation reveals ferroptosis- and autophagy-associated hub genes as diagnostic candidates and immune modulators in atherosclerosis.

BACKGROUND: Atherosclerosis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory vascular disease that can lead to severe cardiovascular events. Ferroptosis and autophagy h...
