BACKGROUND: Neuroimaging analysis is currently crucial for an early assessment of glioblastoma, to help improving treatment and tumor follow-up. To this end, multiple functional and morphological MRI sequences are usually employed, requiring the deve...
BACKGROUND: Identifying people at risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) is a cornerstone of preventative cardiology. Risk prediction models currently recommended by clinical guidelines are typically based on a limited number of predictors with sub-op...

BACKGROUND: Approximately 10%-15% of patients with breast cancer die of cancer metastasis or recurrence, and early diagnosis of it can improve prognosis. Breast cancer outcomes may be prognosticated on the basis of surface markers of tumor cells and ...
The Cox proportional hazards model commonly used to evaluate prognostic variables in survival of cancer patients may be too simplistic to properly predict a cancer patient's outcome since it assumes that the outcome is a linear combination of covaria...
BACKGROUND: Approximately 20% of initially eligible patients in a HIPEC procedure eventually underwent a simple surgical exploration. These procedures are called 'open & close' (O & C) representing up to 48% of surgery. The objective of this study wa...
BACKGROUND: Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a devastating disease with high mortality rate. This study aimed to predict hematoma expansion in spontaneous ICH from routinely available variables by using support vector machine (SVM) metho...
