Adenocarcinomas of the gastrointestinal tract (esophagus, stomach, and colon) represent a heterogeneous group of diseases with distinct etiology, clinical features, treatment approaches, and prognosis. Studies are ongoing to isolate molecular genetic subtypes, perform complete biological characterization of the tumor, determine prognostic groups, and find predictive markers to the effectiveness of therapy. Separate molecular genetic classifications were created for esophageal adenocarcinoma [The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA)], stomach cancer (TCGA, Asian Cancer Research Group), and colon cancer (Colorectal Cancer Subtyping Consortium).

This study aimed to develop a model that fused multiple features (multi-feature fusion model) for predicting metachronous distant metastasis (DM) in breast cancer (BC) based on clinicopathological characteristics and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). A nomogram based on clinicopathological features (clinicopathological-feature model) and a nomogram based on the multi-feature fusion model were constructed based on BC patients with DM (n=67) and matched patients (n=134) without DM. DM was diagnosed on average (17.
