Optimizing extended ablation margins in papillary thyroid carcinoma using digital pathology by Han-xiao Zhao, Han-xiao Zhao, Yun Niu, Zhen-long Zhao, Yu-tong Liu, Ming-an Yu

“…Two authors independently assessed the characteristics of the PTCs and measured infiltration distances, with the greatest distance recorded as the infiltration distance. Risk factors associated with infiltration distance were analyzed using the rank-sum test, correlation analysis, and multiple linear regression.ResultsOf the 227 tumors, 23 tumors showed no signs of infiltration; the remaining 204 tumors had infiltration distances ranging from 0.14 to 2.26 mm, with 3 tumors having distances greater than 2 mm (2.17, 2.19 and 2.26 mm). …”

Development and validation of a risk prediction model for perioperative acute kidney injury in non-cardiac and non-urological surgery patients: a retrospective cohort study by Xuhui Cong, Xuli Zou, Ruilou Zhu, Yubao Li, Lu Liu, Jiaqiang Zhang

“…BackgroundThis study presents a predictive model designed to fill the gap in tools for predicting perioperative acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients undergoing non-cardiac, non-urological surgeries, with the goal of improving clinical decision-making and patient outcomes.MethodsA retrospective cohort of 40,520 patients aged 65 and older who underwent non-cardiac, non-urological surgeries was analyzed. Key risk factors were identified using univariable logistic regression and LASSO, while multivariate logistic regression was applied to develop and validate the model.ResultsThe prediction model, based on 18 key variables including demographic data, comorbidities, and intraoperative factors, demonstrated strong discriminatory power for predicting perioperative AKI (AUC = 0.803; 95% CI, 0.783–0.823). …”
