Combined use of opioids and other pharmacological therapies used for pain management, such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), benzodiazepines, gabapentinoids, and/or skeletal muscle relaxants (SMRs), in older adult cancer survivors ca...
Current guidelines recommend total thyroidectomy for all T3b differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) with gross strap muscle invasion, yet evidence supporting this universal approach remains limited and conflicting. We analyzed 6,920 T3b DTC patients ...
BACKGROUND: Machine learning has emerged as a promising tool for survival prediction in various diseases; however, its application and external validation in real-world gastric cancer populations remain limited.
Patients with early-onset kidney cancer (EOKC) face a marked decline in prognosis after distant metastasis, yet the accuracy of current predictive methods remains limited. This study aims to develop a predictive model using multiple machine learning ...
Accurate survival prediction is essential for guiding follow-up strategies in patients with cT1b renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Traditional AJCC TNM staging systems provide limited prognostic accuracy. Data from the SEER database were used, which includ...
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to investigate the impact of primary tumor resection (PTR) on survival outcomes for patients with metastatic non-small cell neuroendocrine tumors (mNSCLC-NETs), develop a predictive model to identify which patients may be...
BACKGROUND: Lung and Bronchus cancer is the most fatal type of cancer in the United States. According to the American Cancer Society, there were more than 127,000 deaths from lung cancer in 2023. Lung cancer care cost 23.8 billion dollars in 2020. In...
The role of axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) in breast cancer patients with sentinel lymph node (SLN) micrometastases, particularly after neoadjuvant therapy, remains debated. The present study aimed to assess whether adding ALND provides a surv...
