Background A minority of patients receiving stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are not good responders. Radiomic features can be used to generate predictive algorithms and biomarkers that can determine treatment outcomes and stratify patients to their therapeutic options. This study investigated and attempted to validate the radiomic and clinical features obtained from early-stage and oligometastatic NSCLC patients who underwent SBRT, to predict local response.

Differential expression analysis revealed 11 known miRNAs with varying expression levels, including nine upregulated and two downregulated miRNAs, in virgin females compared with males. The predictive analysis identified 426 target genes for these miRNAs, with ribogenesis highlighted as a key process in oogenesis and egg fertilization.

View Article and Find Full Text PDFStereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is currently the alternative for inoperable early-stage and oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. While most patients are good responders among this specific group, some patients do not experience the benefits of this treatment. Even though physicians use clinical variables and semantic radiological features to make treatment decisions, medical images contain a wealth of personalized pathophysiological information that can be extracted and used for clinical decision support systems.

However, a challenge for chemists is the synthesis of such molecules. Recently, there have been attempts to develop AI models for retrosynthesis prediction, which rely on the availability of a high-quality training dataset.
