An explainable biomedical foundation model via large-scale concept-enhanced vision–language pretraining

Artificial intelligence for medical imaging is required to be accurate and interpretable to clinicians. However, current multimodal biomedical foundation models often prioritize performance over explainability. Here we present ConceptCLIP, an explainable biomedical foundation mod...

Hemoglobin-Red Blood Cell Distribution Width Ratio (HRR) and Rheumatoid Arthritis Risk: A Population-Based Study from the NHANES

Abstract Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a prevalent autoimmune disease with a substantial health burden. The Hemoglobin-red cell distribution width ratio (HRR) is a novel inflammation-related biomarker, yet its association with RA risk remains unexplored. Aims: This stu...

YAP delactylation enhances therapy resistance in renal cell carcinoma

Abstract Lactylation is a novel lysine acylation modification, and its function and exact mechanisms remain unclear. The responsiveness to combined targeted and immunotherapy continues to be a major challenge in cancer treatment. Here, we discovered that lysine lactylation (Kla)...

Clinical utility of molecular residual disease detection in early-stage resected EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer

Molecular residual disease (MRD), detected through circulating tumor DNA, has emerged as a promising biomarker for surveillance in patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) following curative-intent resection. Here we report the MRD analysis from the phase 3 EV...
