BACKGROUND: Preoperative chemotherapy (PC) is an important component of Colorectal cancer (CRC) treatment, but its effects on the biological functions of fibroblasts and epithelial cells in CRC are unclear.
OBJECTIVES: This study was designed to assess computed tomography (CT)-based radiomics of colorectal liver metastases (CRLM), extracted from posttreatment scans in estimating pathologic treatment response to neoadjuvant therapy, and to compare treatm...
AIMS: This study aims to compare the performance of contemporary machine learning models with statistical models in predicting all-cause mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and to develop a user-friendly mortality risk prediction tool...

BACKGROUND: Signet ring cell (SRC) gastric carcinoma is traditionally associated with a poor prognosis. However, the literature has presented contradictory results. Linear models are the standard statistical tools typically used to study these condit...
BACKGROUND: Upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB) is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. This study investigates the use of residual variables and machine learning (ML) models for predicting major bleeding in patients with seve...
BACKGROUND: The solid pattern is a highly malignant subtype of lung adenocarcinoma. In the current era of transitioning from lobectomy to sublobar resection for the surgical treatment of small lung cancers, preoperative identification of this subtype...
INTRODUCTION: Primary refractory disease affects 30-40% of patients diagnosed with DLBCL and is a significant challenge in disease management due to its poor prognosis. Predicting refractory status could greatly inform treatment strategies, enabling ...
