PURPOSE: This multicenter study aimed to develop and validate a multiscale deep learning radiomics nomogram for predicting recurrence-free survival (RFS) in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
Sepsis is a life-threatening disease with a high mortality rate, for which the pathogenetic mechanism still unclear. DNA damage repair (DDR) is essential for maintaining genome integrity. This study aimed to explore the role of DDR-related genes in t...
BACKGROUND: Postoperative fever (POF) is a common occurrence in patients undergoing major surgery, presenting challenges and burdens for both patients and surgeons yet. This study endeavors to examine the incidence, identify risk factors, and establi...
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to develop a dynamic survival prediction model utilizing conditional survival (CS) analysis and machine learning techniques for gastric neuroendocrine carcinomas (GNECs).
Treatment decisions for an incidental renal mass are mostly made with pathologic uncertainty. Improving the diagnosis of benign renal masses and distinguishing aggressive cancers from indolent ones is key to better treatment selection. We analyze 132...
BACKGROUND: Long-term severe cholangitis can lead to dense adhesions and increased fragility of the bile duct, complicating surgical procedures and elevating operative risk in children with pancreaticobiliary maljunction (PBM). Consequently, preopera...
Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common tumors; one of the reasons for its poor prognosis is that GC cells can resist normal cell death process and therefore develop distant metastasis. Cuproptosis is a novel type of cell death and a limited nu...

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study is to develop an automated method for segmenting spleen computed tomography (CT) images using a deep learning model. This approach is intended to address the limitations of manual segmentation, which is known to...
Accurate identification of individuals at high risk for mild cognitive impairment (MCI) among chronic heart failure (CHF) patients is crucial for reducing rehospitalization and mortality rates. This study aimed to develop and validate a machine learn...
