Low baseline Tc-MEP amplitude is associated with false-positive alerts in spine surgery: a ROC-based analysis across spinal pathologies

This study aimed to determine whether absolute baseline transcranial motor evoked potential (Tc-MEP) amplitude is associated with false-positive (FP) alerts during intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring and to estimate pathology-specific cutoff values. We retrospectively re...

Incidence of and Risk Factors for Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor-Related Pneumonitis in Thoracic Malignancies: A Prospective Multicenter Study

Abstract Background Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have fundamentally changed cancer treatment, but ICI-related pneumonitis (ICI-P) remains a major clinical concern. Although numerous studies have reported its incidence and risk factors, the retrospective nature of these stu...
