Parkland Trauma Index of Mortality (PTIM): Real-time Predictive Model for PolyTrauma Patients [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Vital signs and laboratory values are routinely used to guide clinical decision-making for polytrauma patients, such as the decision to use damage control techniques versus early definitive fracture fixation. Prior multivariate models have tried to predict mortality risk, but due to several limitations like one-time prediction at the time of admission,

Targeted metabolomics reveals novel diagnostic biomarkers for colorectal cancer
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This study employed targeted metabolomic profiling to identify 302 distinct metabolites present in platelet‐rich plasma (PRP), revealing aberrant metabolic profiles amongst individuals diagnosed with colorectal cancer (CRC). Compared to carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and cancer antigen 19‐9 (CA199), our metabolite panel showed improved sensitivity ...

Impact of flexible noise control (FNC) image processing parameters on portable chest radiography
Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract There is a lack of understanding in the performance of flexible noise control (FNC) processing, which is used in digital radiography on a scanner vendor and has four parameters each involving multiple options. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of FNC on portable chest imaging. An anthropomorphic chest phantom was imaged using

KMT2A degradation is observed in decitabine‐responsive acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.We demonstrate that decitabine (DEC) not only degrades the DNA methyltransferase DNMT1 but also the leukemic driver lysine methyltransferase KMT2A likely due to structural similarity of the DNA‐binding CXXC domains. DEC influences KMT2A downstream processes and synergizes with menin inhibitor revumenib (REV) to decrease leukemic cell proliferation, and

Volume staging for arteriovenous malformation SRS treatment using VMAT
Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Volume staging involves dividing the target volume into smaller parts and treating each part separately. In this study, the feasibility of volume‐staged stereotactic radiosurgery (VS‐SRS) on a linear accelerator using volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) and a frameless patient positioning system is investigated.
