PURPOSE: To construct and validate a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) radiomics combined with delta-radiomics and clinical information (C) model for predicting pathological complete response (pCR) in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC...
BACKGROUND: Remdesivir (RDV) was the first antiviral approved for mild-to-moderate COVID-19 and for those patients at risk for progression to severe disease after clinical trials supported its association with improved outcomes. Real-world evidence (...
BACKGROUND: The modified Rodnan skin score (mRSS), a measure of systemic sclerosis (SSc) skin thickness, is agnostic to inflammation and vasculopathy. Previously, we demonstrated the potential of neural network-based digital pathology applied to SSc ...
CTOs are frequently encountered in patients undergoing invasive coronary angiography. Even though technical progress in CTO-PCI and enhanced skills of dedicated operators have led to substantial procedural improvement, the success of the intervention...
To analyse the types and applications of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies to predict treatment response in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and spondyloarthritis (SpA). A comprehensive search in Medline, Embase, and Cochrane databases (up to August...
