Targeted therapy is a treatment that targets the cancer's specific genes, proteins, or the tissue environment that contributes to cancer growth and survival. Identification of therapeutics targets is a very challenging problem in bioinformatics. An integrative and iterative approach for the identification of drug-gene modules (i.e., groups of genes and drugs such that genes in the same module may regulate each other and are targets of some of the drugs in the same module) is developed. Application to clear cell carcinoma of the ovary data reveals several drug-gene modules and a target network that may play important roles in treating this disease.

Scientific research on forest therapy's preventive medical and mental health effects has advanced, but the need for clear evidence for practical applications remains. We conducted an unblinded randomized controlled trial involving healthy men aged 40-70 to compare the physiological and psychological effects of forest and urban walking. Eighty-four participants were randomly assigned to either the forest or urban group, with 78 completing 90-min walks and analysis.

Methods: A total of 143 ccRCC patients were included in the training cohort, and 62 ccRCC patients were included in the validation cohort. The CT images from all patients were normalized, and the tumor regions were manually segmented via ITK-SNAP software.
