AML‐Net: Attention‐based multi‐scale lightweight model for brain tumour segmentation in internet of medical things

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Brain tumour segmentation employing MRI images is important for disease diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment planning. Till now, many encoder‐decoder architectures have been developed for this purpose, with U‐Net being the most extensively utilised. However, these architectures require a lot of parameters to train and have a semantic gap. Some

Five‐year outcome of laparoscopic transanal total mesorectal excision in a single centre—A training model to acquire a new surgical technique

open access: yesSurgical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Laparoscopic transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) has been widely adopted globally. Short‐ and long‐term outcomes vary across different localities, especially during the learning phase. Method and patient The first 100 cases of TaTME performed by two experienced colorectal surgeons between 2015 and 2019 were reviewed. The aim

Understanding and Addressing Clinical Variation in Rectal Cancer Care: Application of an Analytic Framework

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Clinical Oncology, EarlyView.
There is substantial clinical variation in the use of neoadjuvant radiotherapy for high‐risk rectal cancer, ranging from 25% to 59% in New South Wales, Australia. Assessed against an empirically based analytic framework, the reasons for this clinical variation were largely unwarranted and related to MDT processes, imaging quality, workforce/practice ...

Managing Skin Side Effects Associated With Oncology Treatments: Asian Perspective on Use of Dermocosmetics

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Clinical Oncology, EarlyView.
Skin adverse events (AEs) frequently accompany all types of anticancer treatments. This publication discusses how recent international guidance on best‐practices use of dermocosmetics can be adapted to the North Asia region (China, Hong Kong, Japan, Republic of Korea, and Taiwan).

Targeting hexokinase 2 to induce breast cancer cell senescence

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Hexokinase 2 (HK2) is a key enzyme linked to high tumour cell proliferation. Its inhibitors such as 3‐bromopyruvic acid (3‐BP) induce cancer cell death, highlighting HK2 modulation as potential anti‐cancer treatment. However, standard chemotherapies often cause the emergence of senescent cancer cells, which goes along with cell ...
