Machine Learning‐Based Radiomics in Malignancy Prediction of Pancreatic Cystic Lesions: Evidence from Cyst Fluid Multi‐Omics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops noninvasive clinical‐radiomic models using preoperative CT images to predict the malignant potential of pancreatic cystic lesions. It demonstrates the models' high accuracy across various datasets, with AUCs exceeding 0.92. Additionally, multi‐omics analyses uncover key biological mechanisms, including secretion function and lipid ...

Recurrence and non-uniformity of bracket polynomials

open access: yes, 2014
A bracket polynomial on the integers is a function formed using the operations of addition, multiplication and taking fractional parts. For a fairly large class of bracket polynomials we show that if p is a bracket polynomial of degree k-1 on [N] then ...

Deciphering Auditory Hyperexcitability in Otogl Mutant Mice Unravels an Auditory Neuropathy Mechanism

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
By investigating auditory hyperexcitability in a mouse model for hereditary deafness, this study identified a subpopulation of afferent neurons of the auditory nerve marked by Otogl expression. Despite their apparently normal hearing, Otogl+/− mice display poor activation of afferent neurons processing loud sounds and an elevation of the middle the ear

Conditional Overexpression of Serpine2 Promotes Hair Cell Regeneration from Lgr5+ Progenitors in the Neonatal Mouse Cochlea

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study indicates that Serpine2 plays a pivotal role in hair cell (HC) regeneration from Lgr5+ progenitors in the neonatal mouse cochlea. Conditional overexpression of Serpine2 in cochlear Lgr5+ progenitors results in a significantly increased number of ectopic HCs, particularly ectopic inner HCs, and these HCs are likely derived from Lgr5 ...
