Eczema‐Like Amelanotic Melanoma: A Diagnostic Challenge

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Amelanotic melanoma (AM) is a rare and aggressive variant of cutaneous melanoma characterised by the absence of pigmentation, often leading to delayed diagnosis due to its ability to mimic benign inflammatory or neoplastic conditions. We report the case of a 68‐year‐old woman presenting with a slowly enlarging, erythematous, mildly scaling ...

Association of Neighborhood Deprivation With Breslow Thickness in Head and Neck Cutaneous Melanoma

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Neighborhood socioeconomic deprivation, measured by the Area Deprivation Index (ADI), was independently associated with greater Breslow thickness in patients with primary head and neck cutaneous melanoma treated at a single tertiary care center. Patients residing in the most deprived neighborhoods had, on average, 1.40 mm greater tumor thickness ...

EHR‐Integrated Synoptic Operative Reporting for Head and Neck Oncologic Surgery

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
EHR‐integrated synoptic operative templates for head and neck oncologic surgery was developed and implemented at a tertiary academic cancer center. Departmental adherence rose from 49% to nearly 80% over 6 months, and 94.5% of reviewed cases met targets for complete, internally consistent documentation. The resulting structured data dictionary provides

Artificial Intelligence for Identifying Tumor‐Reactive CD8+ T Cells: Biological Principles, Computational Advances, and Future Directions

Med Research, EarlyView.
This review details a three‐stage paradigm shift for tumor‐reactive CD8+ T‐cell identification: decoding transcriptomic states, deciphering clonal functional efficacy, and molecular‐level therapeutic TCR design. Addressing translational hurdles and generative AI “scientific blind spots”—such as missing catch bonds—we present a visionary roadmap.
