PURPOSE: Robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) is a common surgical procedure for the treatment of prostate cancer. Although beneficial, it can lead to intraoperative hypoxia due to high-pressure pneumoperitoneum and Trendelenburg position. Thi...
INTRODUCTION: The challenge of treating Glioblastoma (GBM) tumors is due to various mechanisms that make the tumor resistant to radiation therapy. One of these mechanisms is hypoxia, and therefore, determining the level of hypoxia can improve treatme...

Obstructive sleep apnea(OSA) severity is currently assessed clinically using the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), which is inconsistently associated with short- and long-term outcomes. Ventilatory, hypoxic, and arousal domains are known to exhibit abnorma...
OBJECTIVE: To explore the differences and associations of hypoxic parameters among distinct types of respiratory events in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and to construct prediction models for the types of respiratory events based on hyp...

This study explores the potential of federated learning (FL) to develop a predictive model of hypoxemia in intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Centralized learning (CL) and local learning (LL) approaches have been limited by the localized nature of d...
Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common primary malignant tumour of the bone with high mortality. Here, we comprehensively analysed the hypoxia signalling in OS and further constructed novel hypoxia-related gene signatures for OS prediction and prognosi...
BACKGROUND: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a heterogeneous sleep disorder for which the identification of phenotypes might help for risk stratification for long-term mortality. Thus, the aim of the study was to identify distinct phenotypes of OSA a...
BACKGROUND: Early identification of patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) who are at risk of failing high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) therapy could facilitate closer monitoring, and timely adjustment/escalation of treatment. We aimed...
BACKGROUND: Maintenance hemodialysis patients experience high morbidity and mortality, primarily from cardiovascular and infectious diseases. It was discovered recently that low arterial oxygen saturation (SaO) is associated with a pro-inflammatory p...
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a progressive cardiovascular disease characterized by elevated pulmonary arterial pressure, leading to right heart failure and death. Despite advancements in diagnosis and treatment, it remains incurable, and ...
