Optimal Cutoff Size of Large Borrmann Type III Gastric Cancer: Is 8 cm Accurate in Predicting Survival and Incidence of Peritoneal Metastasis?

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Large type III gastric cancer (GC) ≥ 8 cm has conventionally been categorized with type IV GC in Japan, leading to alternative treatment strategies such as neoadjuvant chemotherapy and staging laparoscopy (SL). However, whether 8 cm is the correct cutoff remains unclear.

AFLP molecular characterizations of some Saccobolus species (Ascomycota, Pezizales) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Amplified restriction fragment length polymorphisms (AFLP) were used to assess the genetic diversity among species and isolates of the genus Saccobolus. Monosporic strains of five Saccobolus species were used throughout.

Deep Learning‐Assisted Coherent Raman Scattering Microscopy

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
The analytical capabilities of coherent Raman scattering microscopy are augmented through deep learning integration. This synergistic paradigm improves fundamental performance via denoising, deconvolution, and hyperspectral unmixing. Concurrently, it enhances downstream image analysis including subcellular localization, virtual staining, and clinical ...

Classification of Pulmonary Nodules Using Multimodal Feature‐Driven Graph Convolutional Networks with Specificity Proficiency

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
The radiomics feature could save the storage space of all medical samples; on the other hand, it avoids data leakage. Graph convolutional neural networks could summarize the similarity of benign and malignant pulmonary nodules to improve the performance in distinguishing them with radiomics and common clinical features.

Polyetheretherketone as a Biomaterial for Spinal Applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Threaded lumbar interbody spinal fusion devices (TIBFD) made from titanium have been reported to be 90% effective for single-level lumbar interbody fusion, although radiographic determination of fusion has been intensely debated in the literature.
