Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is prevalent and aggressive, especially when patients have distant lung metastases, which often places patients into advanced stages. By identifying prognostic variables for lung metastasis in GC patients, it may be possible to construct a good prediction model for both overall survival (OS) and the cumulative incidence prediction (CIP) plot of the tumour.
Aim: To investigate the predictors of GC with lung metastasis (GCLM) to produce nomograms for OS and generate CIP by using cancer-specific survival (CSS) data.

Article Synopsis
- Cervical cancer (CC) is a significant health issue for women, making the prediction of lymph node metastasis (LNM) crucial for treatment planning; this study focuses on creating a predictive model using MRI radiomics to identify LNM in CC patients.
- The research involved 124 patients, splitting them into training (86) and testing (38) groups, extracting key MRI features to develop a scoring model that incorporates crucial risk factors related to LNM, with validation done on the testing cohort.
- The model demonstrated strong predictive capabilities, achieving a high accuracy rate (AUC of 0.923) in the training group and a respectable performance (AUC of 0.82) in the testing group, indicating its
