AI-assisted Early Detection of Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma on Contrast-enhanced CT [PDF]
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most common and aggressive types of pancreatic cancer. However, due to the lack of early and disease-specific symptoms, most patients with PDAC are diagnosed at an advanced disease stage. Consequently, early PDAC detection is crucial for improving patients' quality of life and expanding treatment ...

Random matrix analysis of Ca$^{2+}$ signals in $β$-cell collectives [PDF]
Even within small organs like pancreatic islets, different endocrine cell types and subtypes form a heterogeneous collective to sense the chemical composition of the extracellular solution and compute an adequate hormonal output. Erroneous cellular processing and hormonal output due to challenged heterogeneity result in various disorders with diabetes ...

Advancing Pancreatic Cancer Prediction with a Next Visit Token Prediction Head on top of Med-BERT [PDF]
Background: Recently, numerous foundation models pretrained on extensive data have demonstrated efficacy in disease prediction using Electronic Health Records (EHRs). However, there remains some unanswered questions on how to best utilize such models especially with very small fine-tuning cohorts.

Central role of Yes-associated protein and WW-domain-containing transcriptional co-activator with PDZ-binding motif in pancreatic cancer development. [PDF]
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains a deadly disease with no efficacious treatment options. PDAC incidence is projected to increase, which may be caused at least partially by the obesity epidemic.
