BACKGROUND: Patients with very-high-risk prostate cancer (VHRPCa) have earlier biochemical recurrences (BCRs) and higher mortality rates. It remains unknown whether extended robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (eRALP) without neoadjuvant or adj...
Brain tumors represent the highest cause of mortality in the pediatric oncological population. Diagnosis is commonly performed with magnetic resonance imaging. Survival biomarkers are challenging to identify due to the relatively low numbers of indiv...
BACKGROUND: Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is a major health problem worldwide, and neurologic injury remains the leading cause of morbidity and mortality among survivors of OHCA. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether a machine ...
BACKGROUND: Machine learning (ML) algorithms are now increasingly used in infectious disease epidemiology. Epidemiologists should understand how ML algorithms behave within the context of outbreak data where missingness of data is almost ubiquitous.

Predicting postoperative survival of lung cancer patients (LCPs) is an important problem of medical decision-making. However, the imbalanced distribution of patient survival in the dataset increases the difficulty of prediction. Although the syntheti...
We report the ability of two deep learning-based decision systems to stratify non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients treated with checkpoint inhibitor therapy into two distinct survival groups. Both systems analyze functional and morphological p...
This retrospective study has been conducted to validate the performance of deep learning-based survival models in glioblastoma (GBM) patients alongside the Cox proportional hazards model (CoxPH) and the random survival forest (RSF). Furthermore, the ...
The selection of genes that are important for obtaining gene expression data is challenging. Here, we developed a deep learning-based feature selection method suitable for gene selection. Our novel deep learning model includes an additional feature-s...

Survival analysis is a commonly used method in the medical field to analyze and predict the time of events. In medicine, this approach plays a key role in determining the course of treatment, developing new drugs, and improving hospital procedures. M...
BACKGROUND: Current risk stratification for patients with malignant pleural mesothelioma based on disease stage and histology is inadequate. For some individuals with early-stage epithelioid tumours, a good prognosis by current guidelines can progres...
