BACKGROUND: Preoperative evaluation of the number of lymph node metastasis (LNM) is the basis of individual treatment of locally advanced gastric cancer (LAGC). However, the routinely used preoperative determination method is not accurate enough.
The current standard for evaluating axillary nodal burden in clinically node negative breast cancer is sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB). However, the accuracy of SLNB to detect nodal stage N2-3 remains debatable. Nomograms can help the decision-mak...

PURPOSE: Between 30%-40% of patients with prostate cancer experience disease recurrence following radical prostatectomy. Existing clinical models for recurrence risk prediction do not account for population-based variation in the tumor phenotype, des...
PURPOSE: To develop and identify a MRI-based radiomics nomogram for the preoperative prediction of parametrial invasion (PMI) in patients with early-stage cervical cancer (ECC).
BACKGROUND: Prediction of lymph node invasion (LNI) after radical prostatectomy has been rarely assessed in robotically assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP) series. We aimed to develop and externally validate a pretreatment nomogram for...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: We aimed to identify a blood-based gene expression score (GES) to predict the severity of coronary artery stenosis in patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease (CAD) by integrative use of gene network construction,...
BACKGROUND: Determining the rate of breast cancer (BC) growth in vivo, which can predict prognosis, has remained elusive despite its relevance for treatment, screening recommendations and medicolegal practice. We developed a model that predicts the r...
