Objectives: This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of multi-model incorporated by radiomics, deep learning, and transcriptomics features for predicting pathological grade and survival in patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC).

Methods: In this study, data were collected from 177 ccRCC patients, including radiomics features, deep learning (DL) features, and RNA sequencing data. Diagnostic models were then created using these data through least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) analysis. Additionally, a multi-model was developed by combining radiomics, DL, and transcriptomics features. The prognostic performance of the multi-model was evaluated based on progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) outcomes, assessed using Harrell's concordance index (C-index). Furthermore, we conducted an analysis to investigate the relationship between the multi-model and immune cell infiltration.

Results: The multi-model demonstrated favorable performance in discriminating pathological grade, with area under the ROC curve (AUC) values of 0.946 (95% CI: 0.912-0.980) and 0.864 (95% CI: 0.734-0.994) in the training and testing cohorts, respectively. Additionally, it exhibited statistically significant prognostic performance for predicting PFS and OS. Furthermore, the high-grade group displayed a higher abundance of immune cells compared to the low-grade group.

Conclusions: The multi-model incorporated radiomics, DL, and transcriptomics features demonstrated promising performance in predicting pathological grade and prognosis in patients with ccRCC.

Critical Relevance Statement: We developed a multi-model to predict the grade and survival in clear cell renal cell carcinoma and explored the molecular biological significance of the multi-model of different histological grades.

Key Points: 1. The multi-model achieved an AUC of 0.864 for assessing pathological grade. 2. The multi-model exhibited an association with survival in ccRCC patients. 3. The high-grade group demonstrated a greater abundance of immune cells.

Background: Locoregional therapy (LRT) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) before liver transplantation (LT) has a role in improving the tumor biology and post-LT survival outcome apart from downstaging and bridging. We retrospectively analyzed our database of adult living donor liver transplants (LDLT) for HCC, to compare the survival outcomes in Group-1 (upfront-LT, HCC within Milan/UCSF/AFP<1000 ng/ml) and Group-2 (LT post-LRT, HCC beyond UCSF/irrespective of tumor burden with AFP>1000 ng/ml). We also explored the risk factors for recurrence on follow-up.

Background: Soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE)-mediated membrane fusion is crucial for autophagy, making YKT6, a key modulator of cell membrane fusion, a potential target for cancer therapy. However, its oncogenic role across different cancers remains unclear. This study was to investigate the prognostic value and potential immunological functions of YKT6, including cervical squamous cell carcinoma and endocervical adenocarcinoma (CESC).

Ossifying fibroma (OF) is a rare, benign fibro-osseous neoplasm that primarily originates from membranous bones. While most frequently documented in equines, OF has also been reported in other species, including dogs, though it remains uncommon. The condition poses significant diagnostic challenges due to its ambiguous presentation, often requiring differentiation from other benign and malignant intraosseous lesions.

Introduction: Musculocontractural Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (mcEDS) is a rare autosomal recessive connective tissue disorder caused by systemic depletion of dermatan sulfate. Symptoms characteristic of mcEDS include multiple contractures, fragile skin with subcutaneous bleeding, and hypermobile joints, which suggest difficulty in perioperative management. However, safe surgical techniques and perioperative management of this disorder remain unknown because of its rarity.

Multiple myeloma is characterized by malignant cells which produce high amounts of monoclonal immunoglobulin. Myeloma cells are, therefore, dependent on effective protein degradation. Proteasomal protein degradation is targeted by proteasome inhibitors in routine care.
