Objectives: To develop an MRI radiomic nomogram capable of identifying muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) patients with high-risk molecular characteristics related to poor 2-year disease-free survival (DFS).
Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of DNA sequencing data, prognostic information, and radiomics features from 91 MIBC patients at stages T2-T4aN0M0 without history of immunotherapy. To identify risk stratification, we employed Cox regression based on TP53 mutation status and tumor mutational burden (TMB) level. Radiomics signatures were selected using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) to construct a nomogram based on logistic regression for predicting the stratification in the training cohort. The predictive performance of the nomogram was assessed in the testing cohort using receiver operator curve (ROC), Hosmer-Lemeshow (HL) test, clinical impact curve (CIC), and decision curve analysis (DCA).
Results: Among 91 participants, the mean TMB value was 3.3 mut/Mb, with 60 participants having TP53 mutations. Patients with TP53 mutations and a below-average TMB value were identified as high risk and had a significantly poor 2-year DFS (hazard ratio = 4.36, 95% CI 1.82-10.44, P < 0.001). LASSO identified five radiomics signatures that correlated with the risk stratification. In the testing cohort, the nomogram achieved an area under the ROC curve of 0.909 (95% CI 0.789-0.991) and an accuracy of 0.889 (95% CI 0.708-0.977).
Conclusion: The molecular risk stratification based on TP53 mutation status combined with TMB level is strongly associated with DFS in MIBC. Radiomics signatures can effectively predict this stratification and provide valuable information to clinical decision-making.

Right heart catheterization (RHC) provides critical hemodynamic insights by measuring atrial, ventricular, and pulmonary artery pressures, as well as cardiac output (CO). Although the use of RHC has decreased, its application has been linked to improved outcomes. Advanced hemodynamic markers such as cardiac power output (CPO), aortic pulsatility index (API), pulmonary artery pulsatility index (PAPi), right atrial pressure to pulmonary capillary wedge pressure ratio (RAP/PCWP) and right ventricular stroke work index (RVSWI) have been introduced to enhance risk stratification in cardiogenic shock (CS) and end-stage heart failure (HF) patients.

Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed for 139 patients with sepsis admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of Hefei Third People's Hospital from April 2022 through April 2024. The clinical baseline data, disease scores [sequential organ failure (SOFA) score, acute physiology and chronic health status (APACHE II) score, and SIC score], inflammatory markers [HBP, procalcitonin (PCT), and interleukin 6 (IL-6)], coagulation-related indexes [platelet count (PLT), prothrombin time (PT), prothrombin time international normalized ratio (PT-INR), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), fibrinogen (Fib), and D dimer (D-D)], and the survival time and 28-day prognosis of all patients were observed.

Background Multimodality imaging is essential for personalized prognostic stratification in suspected coronary artery disease (CAD). Machine learning (ML) methods can help address this complexity by incorporating a broader spectrum of variables. Purpose To investigate the performance of an ML model that uses both stress cardiac MRI and coronary CT angiography (CCTA) data to predict major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients with newly diagnosed CAD.

Although sialoblastoma (SBL) is defined as a low-grade malignant salivary gland anlage neoplasm in the 2022 World Health Organization (WHO) Classification of Head and Neck Tumors, its histology, genetics, and behavior remain controversial due to the rarity of the tumor. Here, we performed the first comprehensive clinical, histologic, and molecular analyses of 8 SBLs to better understand their pathogenesis and prognosis. This cohort consisted of 5 boys and 3 girls, with ages ranging from birth to 9 years at diagnosis.

The mechanism of tumor budding (TB) in gastric adenocarcinoma (GAC) and its relationship with biological indicators and prognostic significance, remains unclear. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive analysis using whole-slide imaging to evaluate TB in 75 cases of GAC. Our findings revealed the risk factors associated with TB in GAC and their impact on patient prognosis.
