Neurodegeneration in glaucoma patients is clinically identified through longitudinal assessment of structure-function changes, including intraocular pressure, cup-to-disc ratios from fundus images, and optical coherence tomography imaging of the retinal nerve fiber layer. Use of human post-mortem ocular tissue for basic research is rising in the glaucoma field, yet there are challenges in assessing disease stage and severity, since tissue donations with informed consent are often unaccompanied by detailed pre-mortem clinical information. Further, the interpretation of disease severity based solely on anatomical and morphological assessments by histology can be affected by differences in death-to-preservation time and tissue processing.

Biliary-enteric anastomosis is a common surgical procedure for benign and malignant pathologies involving bile ducts, pancreas and duodenum, as well as during liver transplantation. Imaging is key in detecting potential complications. Ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and nuclear scintigraphy provide complementary information.

Background: Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) is the leading cause of cancer death worldwide. Although immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have shown remarkable clinical efficacy, they can also induce a paradoxical cancer acceleration, known as hyperprogressive disease (HPD), whose causative mechanisms are still unclear.

Methods: This study investigated the mechanisms of ICI resistance in an HPD-NSCLC model.

Cervical cancer is one of the deadly diseases that affects women, which requires periodic examinations to identify and treat any cancerous tumors at a preliminary stage. The most prevalent examination tool for cervical cancer prompt identification is the cervical smear (Pap smear) testing; however, due to human negligence, this examination method has an elevated probability of negative findings. Cervical cancer classification using machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) has been extensively studied to enhance the conventional diagnostic process.
