Independent Prognostic Value of Natural Tooth Count Versus Posterior Teeth Occlusion in Resected Pancreatic Cancer

open access: yesJournal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background/Purpose Prognostic significance of preoperative patient‐related factors, including oral health status, in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains unclear. We evaluated the association between preoperative factors—particularly oral health parameters—and long‐term survival after curative PDAC resection.

Deciphering nodal burden in thyroid carcinoma: A dedicated survey of age, lymph node ratio, log odds of positive nodes, and preoperative prediction models

open access: yesJournal of Intelligent Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Evidence regarding the prognosis of thyroid carcinoma is heterogeneous, ranging from age effects and nodal burden metrics, such as lymph node ratio (LNR) and log odds of positive nodes (LODDS), to preoperative imaging models comprising ultrasound, CEUS, and radiomics.

Enhancing Study Design and Analysis of MR Imaging Markers Through Measurement Error Modeling

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Measurement error in imaging reduces statistical power and potentially biases parameter estimation, compromising study reliability. Purpose To introduce a dual data collection design (reliability and main datasets) to quantify measurement error and apply regression calibration to correct error‐prone imaging markers, thereby ...

Optimal Selection of the Effective Echo Time (TEeff) for T2‐Weighted Fast‐Spin‐Echo MRI of the Prostate at 3.0 T: Effect on Lesion Conspicuity

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Clinical T2‐weighted (T2W) MRI of prostate cancer (PCa) usually implements a 2D fast‐spin‐echo (FSE) sequence, but understanding the echo‐time‐dependent contrast behavior is not straightforward due to the complicated FSE signal evolution.
