A novel interleukin 36 gamma for diagnosing and differentiating malignant from infectious pleural effusion

Egyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis
Background Pleural effusions can be caused by various diseases, making their diagnosis challenging. Light’s criteria are often used to distinguish transudative and exudative effusions.

A Proactive Agent Collaborative Framework for Zero‐Shot Multimodal Medical Reasoning

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This work proposes a multimodal medical collaborative reasoning framework, which imitates clinician's working patterns of comparative analysis. The framework includes a cohort of domain‐expert models, and an large language model learner agent to generate inquiries and interact with these experts to gather the essential information, and integrate the ...

Classification of Pulmonary Nodules Using Multimodal Feature‐Driven Graph Convolutional Networks with Specificity Proficiency

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
The radiomics feature could save the storage space of all medical samples; on the other hand, it avoids data leakage. Graph convolutional neural networks could summarize the similarity of benign and malignant pulmonary nodules to improve the performance in distinguishing them with radiomics and common clinical features.

Minithoracoscopy for Pleural Effusions [PDF]

Canadian Respiratory Journal, 1998
The current management of pleural disease often requires direct visualization and biopsy of the pleural space using thoracoscopy. A diagnostic and therapeutic approach to pleural disease is described that uses a new 2 mm rigid thorascope. The technique allows complete visualization, biopsy and drainage of the pleural space with rapid recovery and ...

International Consensus Histopathological Criteria for Subtyping Idiopathic Multicentric Castleman Disease Based on Machine Learning Analysis

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease (iMCD) is a rare lymphoproliferative disorder classified into three recognized clinical subtypes—idiopathic plasmacytic lymphadenopathy (IPL), TAFRO, and NOS. Although clinical criteria are available for subtyping, diagnostically challenging cases with overlapping histopathological features highlight ...
