To reach a consensus for reporting complications related to cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). Reporting the adverse events related to CRS + HIPEC is not standardized yet. Post-operative complications can be divided in two categories: the effects of surgical manipulation per se and the toxic effects of the heated intraoperative chemotherapy. Additive and/or synergistic effects also exist. Different centers have published their experience with regard to the complications associated with the procedure. Various classification systems have been used which makes a temptative comparison of the different techniques and results almost impossible. An effort was made here to review the existing major classification systems: The Bozzetti classification, the Clavien classification (and two proposed modifications from Feldman et al. and Elias et al.) and the Common terminology criteria for adverse events (CTCAE) version 3.0 of the National Institute of Health (NIH) criteria. A related document was sent to an international panel of experts. The CTCAE was adopted by the panel of experts as the unique classification system to be used for reporting complications related to CRS + HIPEC.

Cancer grade classification is a challenging task identified from the cell structure of healthy and abnormal tissues. The partitioner learns about the malignant cell through the grading and plans the treatment strategy accordingly. A major portion of researchers used DL models for grade classification.

This paper systematically evaluates saliency methods as explainability tools for convolutional neural networks trained to diagnose glaucoma using simplified eye fundus images that contain only disc and cup outlines. These simplified images, a methodological novelty, were used to relate features highlighted in the saliency maps to the geometrical clues that experts consider in glaucoma diagnosis. Despite their simplicity, these images retained sufficient information for accurate classification, with balanced accuracies ranging from 0.

Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is a significant predictor of the early progression of Alzheimer's disease, and it can be used as an important indicator of disease progression. However, many existing methods focus mainly on the image itself when processing brain imaging data, ignoring other non-imaging data (e.g.

In recent years, Brazil's non-White (Brown and Black) population became a numerical majority for the first time since the 19th century. Although we know this change was mostly due to racial reclassification, we do not know how such changes are related to skin color, the primary marker of race in Brazil. Using data from six Latin American Public Opinion Project (LAPOP), or America's Barometer, surveys from 2010 to 2023, we examine how changes in racial self-identification (White, Brown, or Black) are related to respondent skin color (light, medium, or dark).

Identifying why complex tissue regeneration is present or absent in specific vertebrate lineages has remained elusive. One also wonders whether the isolated examples where regeneration is observed represent cases of convergent evolution or are instead the product of phylogenetic inertia from a common ancestral program. Testing alternative hypotheses to identify genetic regulation, cell states, and tissue physiology that explain how regenerative healing emerges in some species requires sampling multiple species among which there is variation in regenerative ability across a phylogenetic framework.
