Department of Radiology and Intervention, Hospital Pakar Kanak-Kanak (UKM Specialist Children's Hospital), Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, Jalan Yaacob Latif, Bandar Tun Razak, 56000, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (Y.L., F.Y.L., J.N.C., H.A.H., H.A.M.); Makmal Pemprosesan Imej Kefungsian (Functional Image Processing Laboratory), Department of Radiology, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, Jalan Yaacob Latif, Bandar Tun Razak, Kuala Lumpur 56000, Malaysia (H.A.M.). Electronic address:

Rationale And Objectives: Extrathyroidal extension (ETE) and BRAF mutation in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) increase mortality and recurrence risk. Preoperative identification presents considerable challenges. Although radiomics has emerged as a potential tool for identifying ETE and BRAF mutation, systematic evidence supporting its effectiveness remains insufficient.

Rationale And Objectives: Training Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) requires large datasets with labeled data, which can be very labor-intensive to prepare. Radiology reports contain a lot of potentially useful information for such tasks. However, they are often unstructured and cannot be directly used for training.

Objectives: To explore whether the mean lumbar acceleration is a feasible tool for determining minimum eligibility criteria to compete in cerebral palsy football, differentiating between new sports classes, and to assess the effect of foot contacts on balance evaluation and class distinction.

Design: Cross-sectional study.

Methods: A total of 146 male cerebral palsy footballers classified into FT1 (n=34), FT2 (n=87), and FT3 (n=25), alongside 12 non-impaired athletes as a control group, participated.

Electronic address:

Objective: This study aimed to develop a predictive model using a random forest algorithm to determine the likelihood of postoperative adhesive small bowel obstruction (ASBO) in infants under 3 months with intestinal malrotation.

Methods: A machine learning model was used to predict postoperative adhesive small bowel obstruction using comprehensive clinical data extracted from 107 patients with a follow-up of at least 24 months. The Boruta algorithm was used for selecting clinical features, and nested cross-validation tuned and selected hyper-parameters for the random forest model.

School of Sport Science, Beijing Sport University, Beijing 100091, China; Key Laboratory of Sports and Physical Health Ministry of Education, Beijing Sport University, Beijing 100091, China. Electronic address:

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of school environmental factors in promoting adolescents' physical activity.

Methods: A systematic search of five databases (PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, EBSCO, and Cochrane Library) was conducted from the earliest available records up to September 2023. Meta-analyses were performed for each school environmental factor, provided that at least two studies reported on the association between that factor and adolescents' physical activity.
