Integrating shear wave elastography and multiparametric MRI for accurate prostate cancer diagnosis.

Am J Cancer Res

January 2025

Department of Radiology, Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University No. 107, Yanjiang West Road, Yuexiu District, Guangzhou 510120, Guangdong, China.

Objective: To develop a risk prediction model for prostate cancer (PCa) by integrating Shear Wave Elastography (SWE) with Multiparametric Magnetic Resonance Imaging (mpMRI), thereby improving screening accuracy and specificity while reducing unnecessary invasive procedures.

Methods: A total of 479 patients who visited Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital between May 2019 and July 2023 were included in this retrospective study, with 162 diagnosed with PCa. The patients were randomly divided into a training set (349 cases) and a validation set (130 cases).

The objective of our study was to compare the effectiveness of the combination of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) and radiofrequency ablation (RFA) with that of surgical resection (SR) in Barcelona-Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) A hepatocellular carcinoma. PubMed, Medline, Embase, and Cochrane Library were searched for comparisons of the two therapies from January 2006 to December 2017. Overall survival rate (OS), recurrence-free survival rate (RFS), complications, and the average length of hospital stay were compared and analyzed.

Yaneng Bioscience (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd. Liuxian 1st Road, Baoan District, Shenzhen 518102, China.

Article Synopsis
  • Ovarian cancer has a high mortality rate, and circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are linked to metastasis, but research on them in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) has been limited.
  • A new microfluidic system using immunomagnetic beads significantly enriched CTCs from blood samples, achieving an average recovery rate of 70.2% for SK-OV-3 EOC cells.
  • The study detected elevated CTC counts in 87% of EOC patients, compared to none in healthy volunteers, indicating the IsoFlux system's potential as a diagnostic tool for EOC.

Sevoflurane has become a main method for induction of anesthesia in pediatric populations. Preclinical evidence suggest the neurotoxic effect of volatile anesthetics on the developing brain including sevoflurane. This study investigates the effect of different doses of sevoflurane on the developing brain.
