Development and Validation of a Natural Language Processing Algorithm for Extracting Clinical and Pathological Features of Breast Cancer From Pathology Reports.

Purpose: Electronic health records (EHRs) are valuable information repositories that offer insights for enhancing clinical research on breast cancer (BC) using real-world data. The objective of this study was to develop a natural language processing (NLP) model specifically designed to extract structured data from BC pathology reports written in natural language.

Methods: During the initial phase, the algorithm's development cohort comprised 193 pathology reports from 116 patients with BC from 2012 to 2016.

Endovascular treatment of a wide-necked renal artery aneurysm with a flow diverter stent.

Renal artery aneurysm (RAA) is a rare, often asymptomatic disease (0.1% incidence in general population) and can be incidentally diagnosed during an abdominal imaging workup. The traditional, gold standard of treatment is open surgery, carrying with it, however, a high risk of nephrectomy, mortality, and collateral morbidity.

A Multicenter Experience of Three Different "Iliac Branched" Stent Grafts for the Treatment of Aorto-Iliac And/Or Iliac Aneurysms.

Background: The aim of study was to assess the safety and effectiveness of 3 different commercial iliac branch devices (IBDs): the Zenith Branch Iliac Endovascular Graft; the Gore Excluder Iliac Branch System and the E-liac Stent Graft System for the treatment of aorto-iliac or iliac aneurysms.

Methods: From January 2017 to February 2020, a retrospective reviewed was conducted on a total of 96 patients. Primary endpoint was IBD instability rate at 24 months.

Establishing the Social and Legal Categories for "" and "".

This article examines whether a clearer lexical and conceptual distinction between the various stages of development, from birth to adulthood, is required to better recognize and protect the needs of the young female population affected by armed conflict. Using intersectional feminist theory, this analysis proposes a reflection on the use of a more precise definition and conceptualization of the term and , as two distinct age stages with distinct physical and psychological development.

Selective crossectomy combined with mechanochemical ablation in the treatment of great saphenous vein insufficiency: Early results of a single center experience.

Background: Selective crossectomy and mechanochemical ablation (MOCA) of great saphenous vein (GSV) have been used, for years, individually in the treatment of chronic venous insufficiency. In this paper, we focus on the advantages of a combination of the two techniques, in order to prevent complications and recurrence.

Methods: A preoperative clinical and instrumental screening phase was conducted for the purpose of dividing patients into three groups: "Saph+Cross" group (51/139 patients) underwent saphenectomy and crossectomy; "MOCA" group (44/139 patients) underwent MOCA of GSV with Flebogrif® device; "MOCA + Cross" group (44/139 patients) subjected to both MOCA and crossectomy procedures.
