Isocitrate dehydrogenase () mutations in glioma patients confer longer survival and may guide treatment decision making. We aimed to predict the status of gliomas from MR imaging by applying a residual convolutional neural network to preoperative r...
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) patterns, classified by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) or continence, preoperatively and after robot-assisted laparoscopi...
BACKGROUND: Previously proposed criteria for preoperatively identifying endometrial cancer patients at low risk for lymph node metastasis remain to be verified. For this purpose, a prospective, multicenter observational study was performed.

BACKGROUND: Preoperative type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2 DM) has previously been reported as an independent predictor for suboptimal (≤40%) weight loss after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass in patients with T2 DM compared with patients who do not have T2 DM. T...
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: To quantitatively measure volumetric changes in upper airway soft tissue structures using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) pre- and post transoral robotic surgery for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA-TORS).
OBJECTIVE: The aim of the present study is to elucidate factors contributing to early recovery of urinary continence after robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RARP) from the perspective of urethral and vesical anatomical features after...

BACKGROUND: Preoperative frailty assessment is crucial for surgical risk stratification in older adults. Traditional frailty measurements are often too time-consuming and resource-intensive in preoperative settings. This study aimed to externally val...
OBJECTIVE AND BACKGROUND: Clinically significant posthepatectomy liver failure (PHLF B+C) remains the main cause of mortality after major hepatic resection. This study aimed to establish an aspartate aminotransferase to platelet ratio combined with a...
