Aims: gene is amplified in 15%-20% of invasive breast cancers (IBCs), serving as critical prognostic and predictive marker. -targeted therapies have improved outcomes for -positive patients, highlighting the importance of accurate assessment. Immunohistochemistry is commonly used for screening overexpression, with equivocal cases reflex tested using in situ hybridisation (ISH) methods like fluorescence (FISH) or dual-colour dual ISH (D-DISH).

We assess the safety and immunogenicity of an outer membrane vesicle vaccine (iNTS-GMMA) derived from the two most common serovars, S. Enteritidis (SEn) and S.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFFluorescein angiography (FA) has long been a cornerstone for evaluating retinal vascular leakage in diseases like uveitis, diabetic retinopathy, and macular degeneration, but its interpretation relies on subjective grading that can vary between clinicians. With the emergence of artificial intelligence (AI), there is a push to transform this qualitative assessment into objective, quantifiable metrics. We conducted a comprehensive literature search using PubMed, Embase, and Scopus, combining keywords and MeSH terms related to fluorescein angiography leakage, artificial intelligence, and retinal vascular diseases.

This review explores the sation of AI technologies in synthesizing and analyzing multimodal data to enhance efficiency and accuracy in health care delivery. Specifically, deep learning models have demonstrated remarkable capabilities in identifying seven categories of hepatobiliary disorders using ocular imaging datasets, including slit-lamp, retinal fundus, and optical coherence tomography images.

Introduction: Bacterial vaginosis, resulting from vaginal microbiota imbalance and lactobacilli depletion, is the leading cause of abnormally appearing discharge in reproductive-aged women. Bacterial vaginosis is also associated with risk for sexually transmitted infections, preterm birth, and pelvic inflammatory disease. This meta-analysis assessed the association between the risk of bacterial vaginosis (BV) and body mass index (BMI).
