Joint Modeling of Biomarker Cascades Along An Unobserved Disease Progression with Differentiate Covariate Effects: An Application in Alzheimer's Disease [PDF]
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) research has shifted to focus on biomarker trajectories and their potential use in understanding the underlying AD-related pathological process. A conceptual framework was proposed in modern AD research that hypothesized biomarker cascades as a result of underlying AD pathology.

DNA repair deficiency biomarkers and the 70-gene ultra-high risk signature as predictors of veliparib/carboplatin response in the I-SPY 2 breast cancer trial. [PDF]
Veliparib combined with carboplatin (VC) was an experimental regimen evaluated in the biomarker-rich neoadjuvant I-SPY 2 trial for breast cancer. VC showed improved efficacy in the triple negative signature.

Clinical Contrastive Learning for Biomarker Detection [PDF]
This paper presents a novel positive and negative set selection strategy for contrastive learning of medical images based on labels that can be extracted from clinical data. In the medical field, there exists a variety of labels for data that serve different purposes at different stages of a diagnostic and treatment process.

Expert consensus on population-based BRCA germline mutation screening in China (2024 edition) [PDF]
Germline mutations in BRCA genes (including BRCA1/2) are the major risk factors for hereditary tumors including breast and ovarian cancer. Population based BRCA gene screening, particularly in high-risk individuals with a family history of cancer, can ...
