Pediatric papillary thyroid carcinomas (PPTCs) exhibit high inter-tumor heterogeneity and currently lack widely adopted recurrence risk stratification criteria. Hence, we propose a machine learning-based objective method to individually predict their...
BACKGROUND: The objective of this study is to develop and validate a machine learning (ML) prediction model for the assessment of laparoscopic total mesorectal excision (LaTME) surgery difficulty, as well as to identify independent risk factors that ...

BACKGROUND: TNM staging is the main reference standard for prognostic prediction of colorectal cancer (CRC), but the prognosis heterogeneity of patients with the same stage is still large. This study aimed to classify the tumor microenvironment of pa...
Distinguishing clinical subgroups for patients suffering with diseases characterized by a wide phenotypic spectrum is essential for developing precision therapies. Patients with gain-of-function (GOF) variants in the SCN8A gene exhibit substantial cl...

BACKGROUND: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is not only a complication but also a serious threat to patients with cerebral infarction (CI). This study aimed to explore the application of interpretable machine learning algorithms in predicting AKI in patien...
BACKGROUND: Gastric cancer (GC) is a common and aggressive type of cancer worldwide. Despite recent advancements in its treatment, the prognosis for patients with GC remains poor. Understanding the mechanisms of cell death in GC, particularly those r...
