Plants are valuable resources for drug discovery as they produce diverse bioactive compounds. However, the chemical diversity makes it difficult to predict the biological activity of plant extracts via conventional chemometric methods. In this research, we propose a new computational model that integrates chemical composition data with structure-based chemical ontology.

Article Synopsis
  • An 84-year-old female was diagnosed with both plasmablastic lymphoma (PBL) and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in her large intestine, which was confirmed through biopsy and imaging.
  • The ileocecal lesion was characterized as DLBCL, while the rectal tumor exhibited features consistent with PBL, including specific immunohistochemical markers and the presence of Epstein-Barr virus.
  • Sequencing revealed a common B-cell origin for both lymphomas, offering new insights into the development of PBL.

Article Synopsis
  • * The Vesical Imaging-Reporting and Data System (VI-RADS), created in 2018, enhances the preoperative evaluation of muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) by utilizing advanced multiparametric MRI techniques to effectively differentiate MIBC from non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC).
  • * The review underscores the importance of mpMRI in identifying variant UCs, while also addressing the need for precise preoperative assessments and exploring innovations like artificial intelligence to improve MRI diagnostics and reduce errors
