INTRODUCTION: Tumor-infiltrating B lymphocytes (TILBs) play a pivotal role in shaping the immune microenvironment of tumors (TIME) and in the progression of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). However, there remains a scarcity of research that has thoroughly...

BACKGROUND: Currently high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is widely used to treat uterine fibroids (UFs). The aim of this study is to develop a machine learning model that can accurately predict the efficacy of HIFU ablation for UFs, assisting t...
We aimed to investigate the independent outcome predictors of continuous antibiotic prophylaxis (CAP) in vesicoureteral reflux, train a model to predict the outcome, and evaluate which infants should be referred for endoscopic vesicoureteral reflux c...

OBJECTIVE: Hyaluronic acid (HA) can be degraded over time. However, the persistence of the effects after injection laryngoplasty (IL) for unilateral vocal fold paralysis (UVFP) has been observed. The relation between HA residue and clinical voice out...

BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic fundoplication remains the gold standard treatment for gastroesophageal reflux disease. However, 10% to 20% of patients experience new, persistent, or recurrent symptoms warranting further treatment. Potential predictors for ...
Research with controlled or crossover designs in animal-assisted therapy have largely used control groups receiving no treatment or treatment as usual, which can potentially inflate the effects of these interventions. It is therefore not always clear...
Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is a well-accepted therapy for refractory chronic pain. However, predicting responders remain a challenge due to a lack of objective pain biomarkers. The present study applies machine learning to predict which patients w...
INTRODUCTION: The gut microbiota is associated with the response to immunotherapy in cutaneous melanoma (CM). However, gut fungal biomarkers and bacterial-fungal interactions have yet to be determined.
Only about half of patients with social anxiety disorder (SAD) respond substantially to cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). However, there has been little evidence available to clinicians or patients about whether any individual patient is more or le...
BACKGROUND: In hospitalized patients, inadequate antibiotic dosage leading to bacterial resistance and increased antimicrobial use intensity due to overexposure to antibiotics are common problems. In the present study, we constructed a machine learni...
