Management Strategies for Disappearing Colorectal Liver Metastases After Systemic Chemotherapy: Long‐Term Outcomes and Preoperative Prediction of ‘True Complete Response’

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Determining whether to resect disappearing liver metastases (DLMs) after chemotherapy for colorectal liver metastases (CRLMs) remains challenging. Methods Patients who underwent hepatectomy after systemic chemotherapy for initially unresectable CRLMs were reviewed. True complete response (CR) was defined as either resected DLMs with

New Results On Censored Regression with Applications to Transactions Costs, Household Decisions and Food Purchases [PDF]

We generalize the Tobit censored regression to permit unique unobserved censoring thresholds conditioned by covariates and a set of common response coefficients.

“Intrapericardial Approach” for Venous Outflow Reconstruction in Living‐Donor Liver Transplantation for Budd‐Chiari Syndrome: Surgical Techniques and LongTerm Outcomes

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Unlike deceased‐donor liver transplantation, living‐donor liver transplantation (LDLT) for Budd‐Chiari Syndrome (BCS) presents distinctive challenges in hepatic venous (HV)‐outflow reconstruction because diseased HV–inferior vena cava (IVC) cannot be entirely replaced with healthy donor vessels.

Inferring the Timing of Antiretroviral Therapy by Zero-Inflated Random Change Point Models Using Longitudinal Data Subject to Left-Censoring

Algorithms
We propose a new random change point model that utilizes routinely recorded individual-level HIV viral load data to estimate the timing of antiretroviral therapy (ART) initiation in people living with HIV.

Consumption of Pork Products: Now and to the Year 2020 [PDF]

Data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s 1994-96 and 1998 Continuing Survey of Food Intakes by Individuals (CSFII) are used to describe pork consumption patterns as well as to estimate a censored demand system for pork cuts.

Potential Survival Benefit of Neoadjuvant Docetaxel, Cisplatin and 5‐Fluorouracil Therapy in Patients With Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma With Multiple Lymph Node Metastases: A Single‐Institute Propensity Score Analysis

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Although neoadjuvant chemotherapy with fluorouracil, cisplatin, and docetaxel (NAC‐DCF) is the current standard neoadjuvant regimen for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, its substantial toxicity underscores the need to identify patients who derive the greatest benefit.

Clinical Significance of PD‐L1 and HLA Expression in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma in Response to Immunotherapy

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study evaluated immune‐related biomarkers in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors after postoperative recurrence. PD‐L1 expression in tumor‐associated macrophages and tumor cells, together with HLA class I downregulation and HLA‐DR expression, were associated with favorable responses to immunotherapy.

Machine Learning Hazard Estimation with Valid Bootstrap Inference for Generalized Progressive Hybrid Censoring

Mathematics
Reliability studies frequently employ progressive censoring schemes that remove surviving units during testing, yet statistical inference under such designs remains vulnerable to parametric model misspecification.

Navigating the Post‐BCMA/GPRC5D Landscape: Efficacy of Selinexor, Bortezomib, and Dexamethasone After Sequential Immunotherapy Failure in Penta‐Refractory Multiple Myeloma—A Multicenter Analysis

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) who are penta‐drug refractory, defined as resistant to two proteasome inhibitors, two immunomodulatory agents, and an anti‐CD38 monoclonal antibody, face a dismal prognosis, particularly after exposure to T‐cell–redirecting therapies.
