Time-dependent predictive contribution of the triglyceride-glucose index for incident cardiovascular disease in a 9-year Chinese cohort.

This study aims to investigate the association between triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and risk of CVD using explainable survival analysis method based on 2011 to 2020 China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) data. We enrolled 7,721 participants in a prospective cohort. A Lasso Cox model was implemented to select covariates for constructing the multivariate Cox regression model. Re...

Ultrasound-Based AI in Predicting Hormone Receptor Status in Breast Cancer: Is "Digital Biopsy" Possible.

Accurate and rapid determination of tumor histopathological features and molecular subtypes is critical for breast cancer prognosis and treatment strategies. This study evaluates the feasibility of a "digital biopsy" approach that uses machine learning models to predict hormone receptor status from ultrasound radiomic features non-invasively. A retrospective analysis was conducted on 353 breast tu...

Association of lipid profiles with suicide attempts in young adults with first-episode drug-naive major depressive disorder: a gender-specific analysis.

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is strongly associated with suicide risk. While lipid metabolism dysregulation is implicated in MDD pathophysiology, i...
