Article Synopsis
  • A three-step scale called DICA was evaluated for its ability to predict diverticular disease in patients without symptoms during colorectal cancer screening.
  • In a study involving 3,879 participants, 24.7% were found to have diverticula, but the DICA scale did not show any significant relationship with the occurrence of diverticulitis or hospital admissions.
  • The study concluded that DICA has limited predictive value for diverticulitis, highlighting the need for further research with larger groups.

Polymers play a crucial role in a wide array of applications due to their diverse and tunable properties. Establishing the relationship between polymer representations and their properties is crucial to the computational design and screening of potential polymers machine learning. The quality of the representation significantly influences the effectiveness of these computational methods.

Background: Neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) are neoplastic tumors developing in every part of the body, mainly in the gastrointestinal tract and pancreas. Their treatment involves the surgical removal of the tumor and its metastasis, long-acting somatostatin analogs, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and radioligand therapy (RLT).

Materials And Methods: A total of 127 patients with progressive neuroendocrine neoplasms underwent RLT-4 courses, administered every 10 weeks-with the use of 7.

Historically, the chemical discovery process has predominantly been a matter of trial-and-improvement, where small modifications are made to a chemical system, guided by chemical knowledge, with the aim of optimising towards a target property or combination of properties. While a trial-and-improvement approach is frequently successful, especially when assisted by the help of serendipity, the approach is incredibly time- and resource-intensive. Complicating this further, the available chemical space that could, in theory, be explored is remarkably vast.
