Objectives: Identification of m6A- related lncRNAs associated with BC diagnosis and prognosis.

Methods: From the TCGA database, we obtained transcriptome data and corresponding clinical information (including histopathological and CT imaging data) for 408 patients. And bioinformatics, computational histopathology, and radiomics were used to identify and analyze diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers of m6A-related lncRNAs in BC.

Results: 3 significantly high-expressed m6A-related lncRNAs were significantly associated with the prognosis of BC. The BC samples were divided into two subgroups based on the expression of the 3 lncRNAs. The overall survival of patients in cluster 2 was significantly lower than that in cluster 1. The immune landscape results showed that the expression of PD-L1, T cells follicular helper, NK cells resting, and mast cells activated in cluster 2 were significantly higher, and naive B cells, plasma cells, T cells regulatory (Tregs), and mast cells resting were significantly lower. Computational histopathology results showed a significantly higher percentage of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in cluster 2. The radiomics results show that the 3 eigenvalues of diagnostics image-original minimum, diagnostics image-original maximum, and original GLCM inverse variance are significantly higher in cluster 2. High expression of 2 bridge genes in the PPI network of 30 key immune genes predicts poorer disease-free survival, while immunohistochemistry showed that their expression levels were significantly higher in high-grade BC than in low-grade BC and normal tissue.

Conclusion: Based on the results of immune landscape, computational histopathology, and radiomics, these 3 m6A-related lncRNAs may be diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for BC.

Introduction: Solitary plasmacytomas are tumors characterized by a local increase of malignant plasma cells in soft tissue or bone and may occur anywhere without evidence of systemic disease. The aim was to focus on the main surgical techniques and outcomes for this rare chest wall tumor.

Methods: Patients with solitary plasmacytoma involving a rib, who were operated for diagnostic or treatment purposes between 2018 and 2023 were retrospectively reviewed.

Background: Segmentation models for clinical data experience severe performance degradation when trained on a single client from one domain and distributed to other clients from different domain. Federated Learning (FL) provides a solution by enabling multi-party collaborative learning without compromising the confidentiality of clients' private data.

Methods: In this paper, we propose a cross-domain FL method for Weakly Supervised Semantic Segmentation (FL-W3S) of white blood cells in microscopic images.

Rationale: Thrombus is the most common occupying lesion in the cardiac chambers, it is often distinguished from cardiac neoplastic occupations. Among them, the most common is cardiac myxoma, whose imaging manifestations are often confused with thrombus. However, the 2 types of lesions have different therapeutic strategies and are both potentially high-risk sources of embolism, so early differentiation between intracardiac thrombus and cardiac tumor is essential.

Purpose: Adaptive radiotherapy accounts for interfractional anatomic changes. We hypothesize that changes in the gross tumor volumes identified during daily scans could be analyzed using delta-radiomics to predict disease progression events. We evaluated whether an auxiliary data set could improve prediction performance.

Genes on the X chromosome are extensively expressed in the human brain. However, little is known for the X chromosome's impact on the brain anatomy, microstructure, and functional networks. We examined 1045 complex brain imaging traits from 38,529 participants in the UK Biobank.
