State-of-the-art surgery for pancreatic cancer.

Langenbeck's archives of surgery
BACKGROUND: The d evelopment of surgical techniques and specialization and specifically complication management in pancreatic surgery have improved surgical outcomes as well as oncological results in pancreatic surgery in recent decades. Historical m...

A machine learning-based survival prediction model of high grade glioma by integration of clinical and dose-volume histogram parameters.

Cancer medicine
PURPOSE: Glioma is the most common type of primary brain tumor in adults, and it causes significant morbidity and mortality, especially in high-grade glioma (HGG) patients. The accurate prognostic prediction of HGG is vital and helpful for clinicians...

What is the impact of robotic rehabilitation on balance and gait outcomes in people with multiple sclerosis? A systematic review of randomized control trials.

European journal of physical and rehabilitation medicine
INTRODUCTION: In recent years, robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) has been proposed as therapy for balance and gait dysfunctions in people with multiple sclerosis (PwMS). Through this systematic review, we aimed to discuss the impact of RAGT on bala...

The effects of virtual reality augmented robot-assisted gait training on dual-task performance and functional measures in chronic stroke: a randomized controlled single-blind trial.

European journal of physical and rehabilitation medicine
BACKGROUND: Many studies have demonstrated positive effects of virtual reality (VR) and robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) on balance, gait skills, functional capacity, active participation, and motivation in stroke patients, previously. However, th...

Systematic review of guidelines to identify recommendations for upper limb robotic rehabilitation after stroke.

European journal of physical and rehabilitation medicine
INTRODUCTION: Upper limb motor impairment is one of the most frequent stroke consequences. Robot therapy may represent a valid option for upper limb stroke rehabilitation, but there are still gaps between research evidence and their use in clinical p...

Artificial neural networks for simultaneously predicting the risk of multiple co-occurring symptoms among patients with cancer.

Cancer medicine
Patients with cancer often exhibit multiple co-occurring symptoms which can impact the type of treatment received, recovery, and long-term health. We aim to simultaneously predict the risk of three symptoms: severe pain, moderate-severe depression, a...

Outcomes of surgical and/or medical treatment in patients with prolactinomas during long-term follow-up: a retrospective single-centre study.

Hormone molecular biology and clinical investigation
OBJECTIVES: Prolactinoma is the most common cause of pituitary tumours. Current medical guidelines recommend dopamine agonists (cabergoline or bromocriptine) as the initial therapy for prolactinoma. However, surgical removal can also be considered in...

Deep learning enabled prediction of 5-year survival in pediatric genitourinary rhabdomyosarcoma.

Surgical oncology
BACKGROUND: Genitourinary rhabdomyosarcoma (GU-RMS) is a rare, pediatric malignancy originating from embryonic mesenchyme. Current approaches to prognostication rely upon conventional statistical methods such as Cox proportional hazards (CPH) models ...
