Diagnostic accuracy of node-RADS for the detection of lymph node invasion: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Eur Radiol
January 2025
Department of Urological Surgical, JiangNan University Medical Center, Wuxi, China.
Objective: To conduct a meta-analysis assessing the diagnostic performance of the node reporting and data system (Node-RADS) for detecting lymph node (LN) invasion.
Method: We performed a systematic literature search of online scientific publication databases from inception up to July 31, 2024. We used the quality assessment of diagnostic accuracy studies-2 (QUADAS-2) to assess the study quality, and heterogeneity was determined by the Q-test and measured with I statistics.
Family Size across the Life Course and Cognitive Decline in Older Mexican Adults.

College of Health Solutions, Arizona State University, Phoenix, AZ, USA.
Objectives: A growing body of research has identified associations between family size and cognition in older adults. These studies largely focus on older adults' own fertility history instead of sibship size, defined as one's number of siblings. Sibship size may impact cognitive development during early childhood, creating differences that may persist into late-life.

Prostate
January 2025
Department of Urology, Affiliated Hospital 2 of Nantong University, Nantong, Jiangsu, People's Republic of China.
Background: Prior studies have concentrated exclusively on how different prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels affect the prognosis of high-grade prostate cancer (PCa), often overlooking the prognosis of low-grade PCa.
Methods: The present cohort study included individuals diagnosed with PCa from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database between 2010 and 2021. The all-cause mortality (ACM) and prostate cancer-specific mortality (PCSM) for each treatment group was calculated stratified by the four PSA levels (≤ 4.
Predictive ability of systemic coagulation-inflammation index on early fistula failure after radiocephalic arteriovenous fistula creation.
Int J Artif Organs
January 2025
Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Bursa City Hospital, Bursa, Turkey.
Introduction: To the best of our knowledge, a possible predictive relationship between the systemic coagulation-inflammation index (SCI) and arteriovenous fistula (AVF) failure following AVF creation has not yet been examined. We therefore designed this study to examine the predictive ability of SCI on postoperative early AVF failure in patients undergoing primary radiocephalic AVF operation.
Methods: A total of 189 patients who underwent primary radiocephalic AVF operation for hemodialysis access were included in this retrospective observational cohort study, and then divided into two groups according to whether AVF failure occurred within the first 3 months after the operation; as failed AVF group ( = 44) and non-failed AVF group ( = 145).
Integration of Apolipoprotein B into the SCORE2 Framework: Implications for Cardiovascular Risk Prediction.
Eur J Prev Cardiol
January 2025
Faculty of Medicine, Dentistry and Health Sciences, University of Melbourne, Melbourne, Australia.
Aim: To evaluate whether integrating Apolipoprotein B (ApoB) into the SCORE2 cardiovascular risk prediction framework improves its predictive accuracy and clinical applicability within the UK Biobank population.
Method: A 10-year prospective cohort study was conducted with 448,303 UK Biobank participants eligible for SCORE2 calculation. Three approaches were employed: (1) threshold analysis to determine the optimal ApoB cutoff for cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk prediction using Youden's Index, (2) assessment of the synergistic effect of SCORE2 and ApoB through concordant and discordant classifications, and (3) recalibration of the SCORE2 model by incorporating ApoB as an additional predictor.
