Prognostic factors in conversion surgery following nab‐paclitaxel with gemcitabine and subsequent chemoradiotherapy for unresectable locally advanced pancreatic cancer: Results of a dual‐center study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 157-166, January 2023., 2023
For radical surgery after induction gemcitabine along with nab‐paclitaxel and subsequent chemoradiotherapy for unresectable locally advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, CA19‐9 normalization and maintenance of good nutritional status during treatment until surgery were important for prolonged prognosis.

Cystatin A promotes the antitumor activity of T helper type 1 cells and dendritic cells in murine models of pancreatic cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a disease with very poor prognosis due to therapeutic limitations. We investigated the antitumor effects of cystatin A (CSTA) in PDAC murine models. We are first to confirm that CSTA enhances T helper type 1‐mediated antitumor effects through promotion of dendritic cells and M1 macrophage activity. CSTA can be

Prediction of need for bowel resection in acute superior mesenteric artery occlusion: A retrospective study of 48 Japanese patients

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 175-181, January 2023., 2023
In a study of 48 patients with acute superior mesenteric artery occlusion, a logistic regression model using time from onset to diagnosis and the occlusion site of superior mesenteric artery showed 78.6% sensitivity in ruling out cases requiring bowel resection.

Convolutional Neural Networks for Medical Image Analysis: Full Training or Fine Tuning? [PDF]

IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging. 35(5):1299-1312 (2016), 2017
Training a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) from scratch is difficult because it requires a large amount of labeled training data and a great deal of expertise to ensure proper convergence. A promising alternative is to fine-tune a CNN that has been pre-trained using, for instance, a large set of labeled natural images.
