To determine the effect of positive surgical margins (PSMs) on oncologic outcomes following robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) and to identify factors that increase the likelihood of adverse oncologic outcomes. A multi-institutional database...
The aim of this study is to explore the feasibility of using machine learning (ML) technology to predict postoperative recurrence risk among stage IV colorectal cancer patients. Four basic ML algorithms were used for prediction-logistic regression, d...
The aim of this study was to introduce the "ultrathin parenchyma" resection in a robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) via the retroperitoneal approach, and to assess the feasibility, security, and effectiveness of this technique. We collected ...
BACKGROUND: Early cancer recurrence after oesophagectomy is a common problem, with an incidence of 20-30 per cent despite the widespread use of neoadjuvant treatment. Quantification of this risk is difficult and existing models perform poorly. This s...
Nonmuscle-invasive bladder cancer has a relatively high postoperative recurrence rate despite the implementation of conventional treatment methods. Cystoscopy is essential for diagnosing and monitoring bladder cancer, but lesions are overlooked whil...
Early identification of metastatic or recurrent colorectal cancer (CRC) patients who will be sensitive to FOLFOX (5-FU, leucovorin and oxaliplatin) therapy is very important. We performed microarray meta-analysis to identify differentially expressed ...

BACKGROUND: The proper estimate of the risk of recurrences in early-stage oral tongue squamous cell carcinoma (OTSCC) is mandatory for individual treatment-decision making. However, this remains a challenge even for experienced multidisciplinary cent...
PURPOSE: This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of using delta-radiomics to predict overall survival (OS) for patients with recurrent malignant gliomas treated by concurrent stereotactic radiosurgery and bevacizumab, and to investigate the...
Gastric cancer (GC) ranks fifth in terms of incidence and third in terms of tumor mortality worldwide. The present study was designed to construct a Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier and risk score system for GC. The GSE62254 (training set) and...
BACKGROUND: Current guidelines recommend surgical resection as the first-line option for patients with solitary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC); unfortunately, postoperative recurrence rate remains high and there is no reliable prediction tool. We exp...
