Importance Unlike patient age, which has been a well-established and routinely used primary biological prognostic factor in the risk stratification of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC), the prognostic value of patient sex remains controversial in this common endocrine malignant neop...

Clinical evaluation of AI-assisted quantitative marrow fibrosis assessment using Continuous Indexing of Fibrosis (CIF)

Abstract Assessment of fibrosis is central to the evaluation of diagnostic bone marrow trephine (BMT) biopsies. However, manual fibrosis grading is subjective and only semi-quantitative. We evaluated the clinical utility of a previously developed AI-based quantitative fibrosis as...

BACKGROUND: If ultrasound dedicated software for the identification and quantification of interstitial syndrome is equal or superior to experts observation is still being explored. The primary objective of this study was to compare the performance of an automatic method based on...

Predicting the risk of dehydration and readmission among rectal cancer patients with ileostomy: a multicenter observational study

Abstract Dehydration is a frequent complication among rectal cancer patients after ileostomy, often resulting in hospital readmission. The Dehydration Readmission after Ileostomy Prediction (DRIP) score was used to identify patients at risk of dehydration-related readmission. The...

Prevalence of Mental Disorders in Parents With Intellectual Disabilities: A Systematic Review
