Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Urine is a rich source of biomarkers for cancer detection. Tumor‐derived material is released into the bloodstream and transported to the urine. Urine can easily be collected from individuals, allowing non‐invasive cancer detection. This review discusses the rationale behind urine‐based cancer detection and its potential for cancer diagnostics ...

AI-Decision Support System Interface Using Cancer Related Data for Lung Cancer Prognosis [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Until the beginning of 2021, lung cancer is known to be the most common cancer in the world. The disease is common due to factors such as occupational exposure, smoking and environmental pollution. The early diagnosis and treatment of the disease is of great importance as well as the prevention of the causes that cause the disease.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) promote cancer growth, invasion (metastasis), and drug resistance. Here, we identified functional and diverse circulating CAFs (cCAFs) in patients with metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa). cCAFs were found in higher numbers and were functional and diverse in mPCa patients versus healthy individuals, suggesting their ...

Inception-Based Network and Multi-Spectrogram Ensemble Applied For Predicting Respiratory Anomalies and Lung Diseases [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 This paper presents an inception-based deep neural network for detecting lung diseases using respiratory sound input. Recordings of respiratory sound collected from patients are firstly transformed into spectrograms where both spectral and temporal information are well presented, referred to as front-end feature extraction.
