: Cancer survival prediction is vital in improving patients' prospects and recommending therapies. Understanding the molecular behavior of cancer can be enhanced through the integration of multi-omics data, including mRNA, miRNA, and DNA methylation data. In light of these multi-omics data, we proposed a graph attention network (GAT) model in this study to predict the survival of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Purpose: The Swedish National Patient Register (SNPR) is frequently used in studies of colonic diverticular disease (DD). Despite this, the validity of the coding for this specific disease in the register has not been studied.

Methods: From SNPR, 650 admissions were randomly identified encoded with ICD 10, K572-K579.

It has been noted that disease detection approaches based on deep learning are becoming increasingly important in artificial intelligence-based research in the field of agriculture. Studies conducted in this area are not at the level that is desirable due to the diversity of plant species and the regional characteristics of many of these species. Although numerous researchers have studied diseases on plant leaves, it is undeniable that timely diagnosis of diseases on olive leaves remains a difficult task.

Research Background: Antioxidants are important compounds present at low concentrations that inhibit oxidation processes. Due to the side effects of synthetic antioxidants, research interest has increased considerably towards finding natural sources of antioxidants that can replace the synthetic ones. The emergence and spread of antibiotic resistance require the development of new drugs or some potential sources of novel medicine.

Background: Acne is a serious skin problem that affects mostly adolescents. The topical and systematic therapies are effective but could lead to several side effects and the emergence of antibacterial resistance of the acne-causing bacteria. Plant resources have been used as traditional medicine for centuries and can be the alternative therapies for acne treatment.

Backgrounds And Aims: High intake of dietary fibres has been associated with a reduced risk of DD. However, reports on which type of dietary fibre intake that is most beneficial have been conflicting. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between different dietary fibres and hospitalisation due to diverticular disease (DD) of the colon.

Choledochal cysts are uncommon developmental anomalies involving intrahepatic and extrahepatic biliary ducts, and their immediate complete excision is recommended to prevent chronic inflammatory and malignant changes. A diagnosis of a congenital type 1C choledochal cyst was made in an 8-year-old female patient admitted to the emergency unit with complaints of severe upper abdominal pain and vomiting. Under laparotomy, resection of the whole segment of choledochal cyst and gallbladder, assisted Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy was performed.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate if the ProMIS™ simulator could serve as a training platform for the da Vinci® surgical system and if this constellation could prove construct validity.

Materials And Methods: The da Vinci system was connected to the ProMIS simulator, which registered objective data concerning how the surgeon performed in the box environment related to time, path, and smoothness. Five experienced robotic surgeons passed four different surgical tasks with progressive difficulty.
