The anatomo-pathological diagnosis of tumors is based on many criteria related mainly to image analysis. Currently, in most pathology laboratories, tissues or cells are placed on glass slides and directly analyzed with an optical microscope. Because of technological evolutions, it is currently possible to digitize slides (digital pathology). The digitization of whole slides has allowed the development of computer programs of artificial intelligence (AI) for image analysis. Applied to tumour pathology, this technology allows the detection, diagnosis or evaluation of the prognosis of neoplastic lesions. There are many challenges associated with the use of AI in routine pathology. These are mainly related to the amount of data to be analyzed and to the development of reliable algorithms. Nevertheless, this technology is promising and could become a valuable aid in the field of precision medicine for which the amount of data related to a patient is constantly increasing.

Background: Complete Cytoreduction (CC) in ovarian cancer (OC) has been associated with better outcomes. Outcomes after CC have a multifactorial and interrelated cause that may not be predictable by conventional statistical methods. Artificial intelligence (AI) may be more accurate in predicting outcomes.

Spatial molecular profiling has provided biomedical researchers valuable opportunities to better understand the relationship between cellular localization and tissue function. Effectively modeling multimodal spatial omics data is crucial for understanding tissue complexity and underlying biology. Furthermore, improvements in spatial resolution have led to the advent of technologies that can generate spatial molecular data with subcellular resolution, requiring the development of computationally efficient methods that can handle the resulting large-scale datasets.

Preeclampsia (PE) is a major pregnancy-specific cardiovascular complication posing latent life-threatening risks to mothers and neonates. The contribution of immune dysregulation to PE is not fully understood, highlighting the need to explore molecular markers and their relationship with immune infiltration to potentially inform therapeutic strategies. We used bioinformatics tools to analyze gene expression data from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database using the GEOquery package in R.
