Surgical treatment of mitral valve diseases has become minimally invasive. This study analyzed the follow-up results of patients after mitral valve repairs (MVRep) using the da Vinci robot. The clinical data of patients who underwent minimally invasi...
BACKGROUND: COVID-19 pandemic resulted in about 165 million infections and 3.4 million deaths all over the world across 15 months. The most severe clinical presentation of COVID-19 diseases is interstitial pneumonia.
INTRODUCTION: Robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) long-term oncologic outcomes were published in few studies. This paper provides a complete overview of RARP long-term oncologic and functional results produced in an Italian spoke hospital.
BACKGROUND: The exact risk assessment is crucial for the management of connective tissue disease-associated interstitial lung disease (CTD-ILD) patients. In the present study, we develop a nomogram to predict 3‑ and 5-year mortality by using machine ...

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to develop and validate a machine learning-based short measure to assess 5 functions (the ML-5F) (activities of daily living [ADL], balance, upper extremity [UE] and lower extremity [LE] motor function, and mobility) in pa...
Conventional deep learning (DL) algorithm requires full supervision of annotating the region of interest (ROI) that is laborious and often biased. We aimed to develop a weakly-supervised DL algorithm that diagnosis breast cancer at ultrasound without...
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate CT-derived radiomics for machine learning-based classification of thymic epithelial tumor (TET) stage (TNM classification), histology (WHO classification) and the presence of myasthenia gravis (MG).
