Characteristics of Anal Fistula Cancer in Patients Who Underwent Surgery: A Nationwide Observational Study Using Diagnosis Procedure Combination Data

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
The characteristics of patients with anal fistula cancer included a higher proportion of men, younger age, more smokers, and tumor‐related characteristics, including more advanced local progression. Surgical characteristics included a lower rate of minimally invasive surgery, a higher proportion of total pelvic exenterations, and longer postoperative ...

Accelerating Primary Screening of USP8 Inhibitors from Drug Repurposing Databases with Tree‐Based Machine Learning

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
This study introduces a tree‐based machine learning approach to accelerate USP8 inhibitor discovery. The best‐performing model identified 100 high‐confidence repurposable compounds, half already approved or in clinical trials, and uncovered novel scaffolds not previously studied. These findings offer a solid foundation for rapid experimental follow‐up,

PULMONARY ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION

Annals of Medicine, 2006
Pulmonary arterial hypertension is a disease of the small pulmonary arteries characterized by vascular narrowing and increased pulmonary vascular resistance, which eventually leads to right ventricular failure. Vasoconstriction, vascular proliferation, remodeling of the pulmonary vessels, and thrombosis are all contributing factors to the increased ...
