AI-driven drug design for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma using GNN and structure-based simulations

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) remains a major global health burden with limited targeted therapeutic options. Here we present an integrated artificial intelligence (AI)-driven drug discovery framework combining graph neural networks (GAT, GCN, AttentiveFP and GIN)...

Efficacy and evidence certainty of traditional Chinese exercises for musculoskeletal disorders: an umbrella review of meta-analyses

Objectives To comprehensively evaluate the efficacy and exercise prescription parameters of traditional Chinese exercises (TCEs) on health outcomes in patients with musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) and rigorously assess the certainty of the evidence. Design Umbrella review. Data...

The intratumoral microbiome as an emerging hub in cancer pathogenesis and precision oncology

Over the past decade, the number of microbial communities identified within tumors has increased by 400%. Notably, the intratumoral microbiome, which includes bacteria, fungi, viruses, and other microorganisms within tumor tissues, was first discovered more than a century ago. Ba...

Fuzuloparib in combination with apatinib versus fuzuloparib alone for recurrent ovarian cancer: a randomized, open-label, phase 2 trial

A randomized, open-label, phase 2 trial assessed fuzuloparib (a PARP inhibitor) plus apatinib (a vascular endothelial growth factor receptor [VEGFR] inhibitor) versus fuzuloparib alone in patients with recurrent ovarian cancer (ROC). Patients with ROC who had failed ≥ 2 lines of...

Weakly supervised artificial intelligence for multi-cancer detection of lymph node metastasis on whole slide images

Abstract The accurate identification of lymph node metastasis is critical for cancer diagnosis/treatment but remains time-consuming and error-prone for pathologists. We develop MambaMIL+HiLA-MIL, a multiple instance learning model combining Vision Mamba with high-low attention se...

CACA guidelines for the management of adult cancer pain

Abstract Cancer pain, one of the most prevalent and distressing symptoms in cancer patients, is closely associated with cancer diagnosis, therapeutic interventions, quality of life, and survival outcomes. Effective cancer pain management requires multidisciplinary collaborative a...

Randomized phase 2 trial of a PARP inhibitor TSL-1502 in germline BRCA-mutated, HER2-negative locally advanced/metastatic breast cancer

Glucuronide prodrug strategies may enhance target specificity and reduce the toxicity of PARP inhibitors, but no clinical evaluation has been performed. We evaluated TSL-1502, a novel glucuronide prodrug of a PARP inhibitor, in a randomized, open-label, phase 2 study at 28 sites...

Developing nonlinear time-varying weighted combined prediction framework for infectious diseases: validation with respiratory infectious diseases and sexually transmitted infections

Traditional combined prediction models often face limitations in their ability to capture complex nonlinear relationships and weighting. To address these challenges, we propose a nonlinear time-varying weighted combined prediction framework that integrates deep learning algorithm...
