AI Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed the outcomes of two groups of 50 consecutive primary uncemented porous-coated hip arthroplasties to assess the learning curve of the surgical procedure.
- Significant improvements were noted in femoral canal filling and lower acetabular cup angle placements in the second group, indicating a better understanding of the technique.
- Despite the technical advancements, the rates of thigh pain and overall clinical ratings showed no significant improvement after two years.
Article Abstract
The results of the first and second groups of 50 consecutive primary, uncemented porous-coated anatomic arthroplasties were analyzed to evaluate the learning curve associated with the procedure. Femoral fit, acetabular cup angle, femoral fracture rate, minimum two-year clinical hip ratings, and clinical symptoms were compared between the two groups. Significant improvement in achieving better femoral canal filling with the prosthesis and lower acetabular cup angle placements was documented in the second 50 cases. Although a definite learning curve in mastering the technique of uncemented total hip arthroplasty was observed, thigh pain rate and clinical ratings were not improved after two years.

Although radiotherapy techniques are the primary treatment for head and neck cancer (HNC), they are still associated with substantial toxicity, and side effect. Machine learning (ML) based radiomics models for predicting toxicity mostly rely on features extracted from pre-treatment imaging data. This study aims to compare different models in predicting radiation-induced xerostomia and sticky saliva in both early and late stage of HNC patients using CT and MRI image features along with demographics and dosimetric information.

The emergence of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology has catalyzed a paradigm shift in clinical diagnostics and personalized medicine, enabling unprecedented access to high-throughput microbiome data. However, the inherent high dimensionality, noise, and variability of microbiome data present substantial obstacles to conventional statistical methods and machine learning techniques. Even the promising deep learning (DL) methods are not immune to these challenges.

Background: Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is widely used for managing brain metastases (BMs), but an adverse effect, radionecrosis, complicates post-SRS management. Differentiating radionecrosis from tumor recurrence non-invasively remains a major clinical challenge, as conventional imaging techniques often necessitate surgical biopsy for accurate diagnosis. Machine learning and deep learning models have shown potential in distinguishing radionecrosis from tumor recurrence.
