Accurate prognostication is essential to guide clinical management in localised cutaneous melanoma (CM), the form of skin cancer with the highest mortality. While the tumour microenvironment (TME) plays a key role in disease progression, current stag...
INTRODUCTION: High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) is an important treatment option for acute hypoxic respiratory failure and can improve outcomes. However, patients on a prolonged duration of HFNC have worse clinical outcomes and increased mortality. It i...

BACKGROUND: We investigate the association of imaging biomarkers extracted from fully automated body composition analysis (BCA) of computed tomography (CT) angiography images of endovascularly treated acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients regarding an...
ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains a leading cause of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality worldwide, and accurate early risk stratification is critical for implementing precision therapies in clinical practice. However, existing cl...
BACKGROUND: Three-vessel coronary artery disease (TVD) is a severe subtype of coronary heart disease, strongly associated with inflammation and metabolic dysfunction. The C-reactive protein-triglyceride glucose index (CTI), an integrated measure of i...
