PURPOSE: To identify and monitor the FTIR spectral signatures of plasma extracellular vesicles (EVs) from Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) patients at different stages with Healthy controls using machine learning models.
Lymph-node status is important in decision-making during early gastric cancer (EGC) treatment. Currently, endoscopic submucosal dissection is the mainstream treatment for EGC. However, it is challenging for even experienced endoscopists to accurately...
BACKGROUND: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) represents a significant global health burden without established curative therapies. Early detection and preventive strategies are crucial for effective MASLD management. T...
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 ...
AIM: In this research, we aimed to develop a model for the accurate prediction of gastric cancer based on H&E findings combined with machine learning pathomics.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The effectiveness of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in improving long-term survival outcomes for patients with a solitary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) measuring 5 cm or less remains uncertain. This study was designed to elu...
