Emergency Cholecystectomy in Patients Classified as High Risk According to the Tokyo Guidelines 2018: A Real‐World Analysis

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Emergency cholecystectomy was evaluated in patients with acute cholecystitis classified as non‐recommended for surgery by the Tokyo Guidelines 2018. Major postoperative complications, rather than mortality, better reflected operative risk. Physiological instability, particularly ASA‐PS ≥ 3 and shock status, identified high‐risk patients, suggesting ...

Machine Learning‐Driven Digital Twin of a Field‐Effect Transistor‐Based Hormone Biosensor for Real‐Time Estradiol Monitoring

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A machine learning‐driven digital twin simulates an aptamer‐functionalized BioFET measuring 17β‐estradiol. Real‐time Isd signals are processed, features are extracted, and trained models estimate hormone concentration. In parallel, a one‐step‐ahead forward model learns biosensor dynamics and generates realistic synthetic signals, enabling in silico ...
