Background: This study aimed to develop predictive models with robust generalization capabilities for assessing the risk of pulmonary embolism in patients with tuberculosis using machine learning algorithms.
Methods: Data were collected from two centers and categorized into development and validation cohorts. Using the development cohort, candidate variables were selected via the Recursive Feature Elimination (RFE) method.

Methods: The study cohort comprised CHB patients who received pegylated interferon treatment at Mengchao Hepatobiliary Hospital, Fujian Medical University, between January 2019 and April 2024. Predictor variables were identified (LASSO), followed by multivariate analysis and logistic regression analysis.

Background: The prognostic significance of Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR) and Platelet-to-Lymphocyte Ratio (PLR) in Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC) patients receiving platinum-based chemotherapy is debated.
Methods: This study aims to elucidate their roles in survival outcomes. A systematic search across PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library identified relevant studies.

Background: Ultrasonography (USG), which is used as the first step in the diagnosis of acute appendicitis (AA), sometimes cannot visualize the appendix. The aim of this study was to retrospectively analyze the clinical, imaging, and pathology results of these cases and to provide information to clinicians about the next step to be taken.
Methods: The study was performed retrospectively between January 1, 2021 and December 31, 2021.
