Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most lethal cancers known to humans. However, not all patients fare equally poor survival, and a minority of patients even survives advanced disease for months or years. Thus, there is a clinical ...
OBJECTIVE: This study aims to establish a new prognostic index using machine learning models to predict the clinical outcomes of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients receiving neoadjuvant therapy.
BACKGROUND: Inflammation-related biomarkers, such as systemic inflammation score (SIS) and neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), are associated with colorectal cancer prognosis. However, the combined role of SIS, NLR, and clinicopathological factors in ...
BACKGROUND: Oral epithelial dysplasia (OED) poses a significant clinical challenge due to its potential for malignant transformation and the lack of reliable prognostic markers. Current OED grading systems do not reliably predict transformation and s...
INTRODUCTION: The mortality rate among older people infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 is alarmingly high. This study aimed to explore the predictive value of a novel model for assessing the risk of death in this vulnerable...
INTRODUCTION: Immune dysregulation plays a major role in cancer progression. The quantification of lymphocytic spatial inflammation may enable spatial system biology, improve understanding of therapeutic resistance, and contribute to prognostic imagi...
Feline chronic enteropathy is a poorly defined condition of older cats that encompasses chronic enteritis to low-grade intestinal lymphoma. The histological evaluation of lymphocyte numbers and distribution in small intestinal biopsies is crucial for...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Histologic assessment of the immune infiltrate in H&E slides is vital in diagnosing and managing inflammatory bowel diseases, but these assessments are subjective and time-consuming even for those with expertise. The develop...
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a life-threatening disease that commonly affects children and is classified into three subtypes: L1, L2, and L3. Traditionally, ALL is diagnosed through morphological analysis, involving the examination of blood ...
BACKGROUND: Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) is a diagnostic method for the assessment of the lower respiratory airway health status in horses. Differential cell count and sometimes also total nucleated cell count (TNCC) are routinely measured by time-co...
