Article Synopsis
- - The study developed a nomogram to predict the likelihood of pelvic lymph node metastases (ypN+) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy in nonmetastatic muscle-invasive bladder cancer patients, finding that ypN+ is linked to worse overall survival.
- - Data from 6,194 patients were analyzed, revealing that 22.8% of high-risk patients had ypN+, compared to only 8.0% in the low-risk group, with high-risk patients experiencing significantly shorter survival (36.1 vs. 74.0 months).
- - Key factors contributing to the nomogram included age, time from diagnosis to treatment, and the tumor’s histology and stage, making it a valuable tool for assessing risk
The objective of this research is to develop an AI-based model that provides a map of potential emergency shelters for seismic-prone regions. While the predominant approach for locating emergency shelters involves expert-answered questionnaires, their accuracy has often been criticized globally. To address this, machine learning can enhance the speed and accuracy of shelter site selection; the results can also be generalized to other regions.

- Enfortumab vedotin (EV) and pembrolizumab (P) are standard treatments for advanced urothelial carcinoma, and this study investigates the safety of combining EV with radiation therapy (RT).
- The study involved nine patients who received EV and RT simultaneously, focusing on the side effects of radiation and symptom relief.
- Results showed that adverse effects were mostly mild, with significant symptom relief achieved; further research is suggested for broader conclusions.
Measuring the Surface Energy of Nanosheets by Emulsion Inversion.
J Phys Chem C Nanomater Interfaces
October 2024
Solution-processed nanomaterials can be assembled by a range of interfacial techniques, including as stabilizers in Pickering emulsions. Two-dimensional (2D) materials present a promising route toward nanosheet-stabilized emulsions for functional segregated networks, while also facilitating surface energy studies. Here, we demonstrate emulsions stabilized by the 2D materials including the transition metal carbide MXene, titanium carbide (TiCT ), and develop an approach for measurement of nanosheet surface energy based on emulsion inversion.

- The study identified factors that delay the start of salvage radiation therapy in prostate cancer patients post-prostatectomy, specifically focusing on PSA levels.
- It analyzed data from 81 patients treated between 2011 and 2022, noting that insurance type significantly influenced the timing of treatment initiation, with HMO and PPO patients more likely to experience delays.
- The findings highlight the importance of PSA monitoring and access to timely care, especially for patients with certain insurance plans, suggesting that healthcare policies may impact treatment outcomes.
