The connection between fluoroquinolones and severe heart conditions, such as aortic aneurysm (AA) and aortic dissection (AD), has been acknowledged, but the full extent of long-term risks remains uncertain. Addressing this knowledge deficit, a retros...
BACKGROUND: High-grade gliomas are among the most aggressive and deadly brain tumors, highlighting the critical need for improved prognostic markers and predictive models. Recent studies have identified the expression of IL7R as a significant risk fa...
BACKGROUND: Catheter-related thrombosis (CRT) is a serious complication in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, yet existing risk prediction models demonstrate limited accuracy. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical utility of machine learnin...
BACKGROUND: The unique anatomical characteristics and blood supply of the rectosigmoid junction confer particular significance to its physiological functions and clinical surgeries. However, research on the prognosis of rectosigmoid junction cancer (...
BACKGROUND: Accurately assessing the prognosis of bladder cancer patients after radical cystectomy has important clinical and research implications. Current models, based on traditional statistical approaches and complex variables, have limited perfo...
BACKGROUND: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is difficult to detect early and highly aggressive, often leading to poor patient prognosis. Existing serum biomarkers like CA19-9 are limited in early diagnosis, failing to meet clinical needs. Mac...
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most prevalent chronic liver disease worldwide. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) and NAFLD share multiple common risk factors. Life's Crucial 9 (LC9), a novel indicator for comprehensive assessment of card...
BACKGROUND: Over the years, various models, including both traditional and machine learning models, have been employed to predict survival probabilities for diverse survival datasets. The objective is to obtain models that provide more accurate estim...

BACKGROUND: Evidence is limited on whether patients with advanced pulmonary carcinoid (APC) benefit from comprehensive pulmonary resection (CPR), chemotherapy, or radiotherapy. Existing prognostic models for APC are limited and do not guide treatment...
BACKGROUND: An ideal lung allocation system should reduce waiting list deaths, improve transplant survival, and ensure equitable organ allocation. This study aimed to develop a novel lung allocation score (LAS) system, the MaxBenefit LAS, to maximize...
