Research Question: Can federated learning be used to develop an artificial intelligence (AI) model for evaluating oocyte competence using two-dimensional images of denuded oocytes in metaphase II prior to intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI)?
Results: The oocyte AI model demonstrated area under the curve (AUC) up to 0.65 on two blind test datasets. High sensitivity for predicting competent oocytes (83-88%) was offset by lower specificity (26-36%).
Background: The preoperative prediction of intraperitoneal adhesion (IPA) before repeated cesarean deliveries (CD), which are becoming more prevalent, is crucial for maternal health.
Aim: The aim of the study was to preoperatively predict IPA in repeated CD with the stria gravidarum (SG) scoring system.
Methods: A total of 167 patients with at least one previous CD at or beyond 37 weeks of gestation were analyzed.
The rates of and the factors influencing HER2 discordance in patients receiving neoadjuvant therapy for breast cancer are investigated. This study retrospectively examines the rates of HER2 and hormone receptor discordance between the biopsy and postoperative resection specimens of 400 female early-stage breast cancer patients. 133 (33.

This work was designed in two stages; in the first stage, using compounds that contain both sulfonamide and hydrazine groups which have important pharmacological properties, a series of sulfonyl hydrazone with alkyl derivatives (SH1- SH4) were synthesized with a method that is less time-consuming and more environmentalist that was by using different substitute groups containing aldehyde and ketone compounds. The structures of the synthesized compounds were characterized by elemental analyses, H NMR, C NMR, FT-IR methods.
