Treatment and Prevention There are many tactics that can be employed to reduce the risk of getting cancer. When an increased risk of cancer is suggested, taking appropriate actions early on can lower this risk. Prognosis As a general principle, when weight loss has occurred or is significant pr...
Tumor gene expression is predictive of patient prognosis in some cancers. However, RNA-seq and whole genome sequencing data contain not only reads from host tumor and normal tissue, but also reads from the tumor microbiome, which can be used to infer the microbial abundances in each tumor. Her...
We explore how AI assists cancer diagnosis and prognosis, specifically with regard to its unprecedented accuracy, which is even higher than that of general statistical applications in oncology. We also demonstrate ways in which these methods are advancing the field. Finally, opportunities and ...
Breast cancer is the most prevalent kind of cancer among women and there is a need for a reliable algorithm to predict its prognosis. Previous studies focused on using gene expression data to build predictive models. However, recent advancements have made multi-omics cancer data sets (gene expres...
though not followed with rigid logic or consistency, allows tumors to be categorized by a characteristic clinical behavior, such as prognosis, and by response to therapy. Tumornomenclaturebased on site and tissue type thus provides a means of identifying tumors and determining the course of treatment...
Histological grade and prognosis Multiple independent studies have shown that NGS has prognostic value that is equivalent to that of LN status [29] and greater than that of tumor size [4, 15]. In a large study, Henson and colleagues [14], who assessed survival rates of 22,616 cases of ...
This study supports a nationally agreed standard in pathology reporting and the use of text mining for encoding, classifying, and production of high-quality information abstractions for cancer prognosis and research. Keywords: pathology reports; breast; colorectal; prostate; text mining; machine learning...
The higher mortality rate in African American women may also be attributable, in part, to the higher than average rate of adenocarcinoma, which carries a worse prognosis than the most common type of cervical cancer (squamous cell carcinoma).10-12 American Indian/Alaska Native women also have ...
Aggressive breast cancers portend a poor prognosis, but current polygenic risk scores (PRSs) for breast cancer do not reliably predict aggressive cancers. Aggressiveness can be effectively recapitulated using tumor gene expression profiling. Thus, we sou
