Perioperative and Oncological Outcomes of Colorectal Cancer Surgery in Obese Patients: A Multicenter Retrospective Study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
The prognostic value of the log odds of positive lymph nodes (LODDS) across BMI categories was investigated in patients undergoing colorectal cancer resection. The exploratory evidence demonstrates that LODDS serves as a strong prognostic marker, and its adverse effect may be more pronounced in patients with higher BMI.

Advanced Experiment Design Strategies for Drug Development

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Wang et al. analyze 592 drug development studies published between 2020 and 2024 that applied design of experiments methodologies. The review surveys both classical and emerging approaches—including Bayesian optimization and active learning—and identifies a critical gap between advanced experimental strategies and their practical adoption in ...

Taguchi–Bayesian Sampling: A Roadmap for Polymer Database Construction Toward Small Representative Machine Learning

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
This article establishes a Taguchi–Bayesian sampling strategy to reconstruct polymer processing–property landscape at minimal sampling cost, generically building the roadmap for materials database construction from sampling their vast design space. This sampling strategy is featured by an alternating lesson between uniformity and representativeness ...

Effects of intermittent exposure to hypobaria and cold on the microarchitecture and morphofunctional profile of rat gastrocnemius muscle

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Intermittent hypobaric hypoxia (IHH) enhances oxygen transport, muscle metabolism, and cardiovascular health; however, the combined effects of hypobaria and cold are less well understood. Exposure to these stressful environmental factors, even intermittently, can affect skeletal muscle due to its plasticity, thereby altering its metabolic and ...

Valorization of fishing industry by‐products for biodiesel production: Unlocking the potential of residual fish oil

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Fishing waste and its by‐products, whether naturally occurring or generated by the processing industry, represent a significant opportunity for producing high‐value products. These often discarded or underutilized residues can be converted into various valuable products through advanced processing technologies. Among the potential products are
