Article Synopsis
- Lung cancer is a significant global health issue, and the Ki-67 index is important for evaluating how aggressive the cancer is, while radiomics can help analyze medical images for better insights into tumor behavior.* -
- The systematic review examined multiple studies from various databases to determine the effectiveness of using CT scans and radiomics to predict Ki-67 status in patients with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, assessing the quality of the studies as well.* -
- Results showed that radiomics models had a pooled sensitivity of around 78-80% and specificity of 70-80% in predicting Ki-67 status, with improved results from studies using specific segmentation software.*
Objectives: We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of current publications on the potential role of non-contrast-enhanced computed tomography (NCCT) radiomics as a prognostic indicator in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH).
Methods: We systematically searched PubMed, EMBASE, and the Web of Science from inception until January 8, 2024. Studies with NCCT-based radiomics features for predicting the prognostic outcomes of ICH patients were included.
As one of the leading causes of death worldwide, cancer significantly burdens patients and the healthcare system. The role of long non-protein coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in carcinogenesis has been extensively studied. The lncRNA ELFN1-AS1 was discovered recently, and subsequent studies have revealed its aberrantly high expression in various cancer tissues.

Material And Methods: Four databases, including PubMed, the Cochrane Library, EMBASE, and Web of Science, were searched systematically to find relevant literature. The search date was updated to 8 September 2022, with no starting time restriction.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic performance of computed tomography (CT) scan-based radiomics in prediction of lymph node metastasis (LNM) in gastric cancer (GC) patients.
Methods: PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases were searched for original studies published until 10 November 2022, and the studies satisfying the inclusion criteria were included. Characteristics of included studies and radiomics approach and data for constructing 2 × 2 tables were extracted.
Rationale And Objectives: The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to assess the quality and diagnostic accuracy of MRI-based radiomics for predicting Ki-67 expression in breast cancer.
Materials And Methods: A systematic literature search was performed to find relevant studies published in different databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, and Embase up until March 10, 2023. All papers were independently evaluated for eligibility by two reviewers.
Purpose: To evaluate the diagnostic performance of radiomics in lymph node metastasis (LNM) prediction in patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) through a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Method: A literature search of PubMed, EMBASE, and Web of Science was conducted to find relevant studies published until February 18th, 2023. Studies that reported the accuracy of radiomics in different imaging modalities for LNM prediction in PTC patients were selected.
Skin cancer is one of the most widespread cancers, with a significant global health effect. UV-induced DNA damage in skin cells triggers them to grow and proliferate out of control, resulting in cancer development. Two common types of skin cancer include melanoma skin cancer (MSC) and non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC).

However, strong evidence suggests the role of its dysregulation in human diseases, especially cancers. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), including microRNAs (miRNAs), long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), and circular RNAs (circRNAs), belong to a group of human transcriptomes that do not translate into proteins.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFLung cancer is the second commonly diagnosed malignancy worldwide and has the highest mortality rate among all cancers. Tremendous efforts have been made to develop novel strategies against lung cancer; however, the overall survival of patients still is low. Uncovering underlying molecular mechanisms of this disease can open up new horizons for its treatment.
