Development of a risk score for colorectal cancer in Chinese males: A prospective cohort study. [PDF]

Cancer Med, 2020
In a cohort study, the authors developed a simple scoring system for colorectal cancer that identifies men at a relatively increased risk of colorectal cancer within 10 years on the basis of several well‐established risk factors (age, alcohol consumption, waist circumference, occupational sitting time and history of diabetes). Those in the highest risk

Early clinical efficacy of pegylated interferon treatment in patients with different phases of chronic HBV infection: A real‐world analysis

Journal of Viral Hepatitis, Volume 30, Issue 5, Page 427-436, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Although there are therapeutic advantages for hepatitis B virus (HBV) withpegylated interferon alpha (peg‐IFNα) treatment compared with nucleos(t)ide analog (NAs) therapy, the effect difference in infected population at different phases has not been well established.

Low birth weight and small for gestational age are associated with complications of childhood and adolescence obesity: Systematic review and meta‐analysis

Obesity Reviews, Volume 23, Issue S1, January 2022., 2022
Summary In recent decades, the incidence of type 2 diabetes (T2D) has increased dramatically in children and adolescents, posing a real public health problem. Beyond unhealthy diets and sedentary lifestyles, growing evidence suggests that some perinatal factors, such as low birth weight (LBW), are associated with higher risk of T2D in adulthood.

A ResNet‐LSTM Based Credit Scoring Approach for Imbalanced Data

Mobile Information Systems, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Detecting potential defaults or bad debt with limited information has become a huge challenge. The main difficulties faced by the credit scoring are sample imbalance and poor classification performance. For this reason, we first proposed the auxiliary conditional tabular generative adversarial network (ACTGAN) to generate sufficient default transaction

Quantitative Identification of the Water Resistance Capacity of Composite Strata in Mining Coal Seam Floors

Geofluids, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
In coal seam mining, the water resistance of the floor composite strata is the key to determining whether water disaster occurs or not and to formulating water control countermeasures. Taking the Pingdingshan Coalfield No. 8 mine and Shoushan mine as the research objects, the thickness ratio of plastic brittle rock, core recovery rate, thickness of ...
