Background: The prognostic significance of long non-coding RNA LINC00657 remains ambiguous, and its role in prostate cancer (PCa) is not well characterized. This study aims to conduct a meta-analysis to clarify the clinical implications of LINC00657 in various malignancies and to assess its impact on PCa.
Methods: A systematic search was conducted across PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science to identify relevant studies.
Purpose: Machine learning (ML) models presented an excellent performance in the prognosis prediction. However, the black box characteristic of ML models limited the clinical applications. Here, we aimed to establish explainable and visualizable ML models to predict biochemical recurrence (BCR) of prostate cancer (PCa).

Most of the VC adolescents may have normal semen parameters in the adulthood.
