Combination therapies have emerged as a promising approach for treating complex diseases, particularly cancer. However, predicting the efficacy and safety profiles of these therapies remains a significant challenge, primarily because of the complex interactions among drugs and their wide-ranging effects. To address this issue, we introduce DD-PRiSM (Decomposition of Drug-Pair Response into Synergy and Monotherapy effect), a deep-learning pipeline that predicts the effects of combination therapy.

Single-cell multi-omics techniques, which enable the simultaneous measurement of multiple modalities such as RNA gene expression and Assay for Transposase-Accessible Chromatin (ATAC) within individual cells, have become a powerful tool for deciphering the intricate complexity of cellular systems. Most current methods rely on motif databases to establish cross-modality relationships between genes from RNA-seq data and peaks from ATAC-seq data. However, these approaches are constrained by incomplete database coverage, particularly for novel or poorly characterized relationships.

In-stent restenosis (ISR) following interventional therapy is a fatal clinical complication. Current evidence indicates that neointimal hyperplasia driven by uncontrolled proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) is a major cause of restenosis. This implies that inhibiting VSMC proliferation may be an attractive approach for preventing in-stent restenosis.

The present study analyzed the impact of age on the causes of death (CODs) in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) undergoing chemoradiotherapy (CRT) using machine learning approaches. A total of 2841 patients (1037 classified as older, ≥ 60 years and 1804 as younger, < 60 years) were enrolled. Variations in the CODs between the two age groups were analyzed before and after applying inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW).
