Patterns of care and outcomes for endometrial and ovarian cancers in botswana 2015–2021

Gynecologic Oncology Reports, 2023
Purpose: Endometrial and ovarian cancers are leading causes of cancer death among women. However, there is little data on these patients from low- and middle-income countries including Botswana, a country in sub-Saharan Africa. This study reports data on

Bayesian Nonparametric Cost-Effectiveness Analyses: Causal Estimation and Adaptive Subgroup Discovery [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Cost-effectiveness analyses (CEAs) are at the center of health economic decision making. While these analyses help policy analysts and economists determine coverage, inform policy, and guide resource allocation, they are statistically challenging for several reasons. Cost and effectiveness are correlated and follow complex joint distributions which are

Surgery for Older Cancer Patients: Cross‐Organ Review and Good Practice Statement by the Japanese Geriatric Oncology Guideline Committee

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
We conducted a cross‐organ review of surgical outcomes in older cancer patients based on literature cited in Japanese clinical guidelines. This study summarizes postoperative complication rates and survival outcomes across five major cancer types. The findings aim to support the development of geriatric oncology surgical guidelines tailored to Japan's ...

Clinically Informed Intelligent Classification of Ovarian Cancer Cells by Label‐Free Holographic Imaging Flow Cytometry

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.
Quantitative phase maps of single cells recorded in flow cytometry modality feed a hierarchical architecture of machine learning models for the label‐free identification of subtypes of ovarian cancer. The employment of a priori clinical information improves the classification performance, thus emulating the clinical application of liquid biopsy during ...

A Weighted Exact Test for Mutually Exclusive Mutations in Cancer [PDF]

arXiv, 2016
The somatic mutations in the pathways that drive cancer development tend to be mutually exclusive across tumors, providing a signal for distinguishing driver mutations from a larger number of random passenger mutations. This mutual exclusivity signal can be confounded by high and highly variable mutation rates across a cohort of samples.

Functional Characterization of a Genetic Variant in the 5′ UTR of APC 1B Promoter in a Familial Adenomatous Polyposis Family

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pathogenic germline variants in the APC gene result in familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) which can escalate into colon cancer. Standard clinical testing failed to identify pathogenic variants in a 4‐generation FAP family. We identified and assessed co‐segregation of a 5′ untranslated region (UTR) variant, NM_001127511.3 (APC) c.‐40G>A ...
