Clinical and endoscopic characteristics of colorectal traditional serrated adenomas with dysplasia/adenocarcinoma in a Korean population.

Background: Traditional serrated adenoma (TSA) is a rare and precancerous lesion of colorectal cancer. The clinical and endoscopic differentiations between TSAs without dysplasia or adenocarcinoma (TSAOs) and TSAs with dysplasia or adenocarcinoma (TSADs) remain unclear.

Aim: To evaluate the characteristics of colorectal TSAs and compare the characteristics of TSAOs with those of TSADs.

Deep learning-based prediction of indication for cracked tooth extraction using panoramic radiography.

Background: We aimed to determine the feasibility of utilizing deep learning-based predictions of the indications for cracked tooth extraction using panoramic radiography.

Methods: Panoramic radiographs of 418 teeth (group 1: 209 normal teeth; group 2: 209 cracked teeth) were evaluated for the training and testing of a deep learning model. We evaluated the performance of the cracked diagnosis model for individual teeth using InceptionV3, ResNet50, and EfficientNetB0.

Clinical outcomes of colorectal neoplasm with positive resection margin after endoscopic submucosal dissection.

A positive resection margin after colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is associated with an increased risk of recurrence. We aimed to identify the clinical significance of positive resection margins in colorectal neoplasms after ESD. We reviewed 632 patients who had en bloc colorectal ESD at two hospitals between 2015 and 2020.

Implant in the Area of Cemento-osseous Dysplasia: Secondary Infection After Osseointegration and Loading.

This case report presents the clinical details of a 60-year-old woman who experienced a secondary infection 5 years postimplant placement and loading in a region affected by cemento-osseous dysplasia (COD). We conducted the simultaneous removal of the implant and the COD mass, which had become osseointegrated with the implant. Healing of the affected area was successful.

Cytochrome P450 Family 46 Subfamily A Member 1 Promotes the Progression of Colorectal Cancer by Inducing Tumor Cell Proliferation and Angiogenesis.

Background/aim: Cytochrome P450 family 46 subfamily A member 1 (CYP46A1) has been implicated in the development and progression of various cancers. This study aimed to analyze the expression of CYP46A1, examining its relationship with oncogenic behaviors, and determining its prognostic implications in colorectal cancer (CRC).

Materials And Methods: A total of 225 patients with CRC who underwent curative surgical resection were examined using paraffin-embedded tissue blocks and subjected to tumor-specific survival analysis.

Deep learning-based prediction of osseointegration for dental implant using plain radiography.

Background: In this study, we investigated whether deep learning-based prediction of osseointegration of dental implants using plain radiography is possible.

Methods: Panoramic and periapical radiographs of 580 patients (1,206 dental implants) were used to train and test a deep learning model. Group 1 (338 patients, 591 dental implants) included implants that were radiographed immediately after implant placement, that is, when osseointegration had not yet occurred.

Myasthenia gravis and myopathy after nivolumab treatment for non-small cell lung carcinoma: A case report.

Here, we report a case of myasthenia gravis and myopathy in a patient treated with nivolumab. A 76-year-old man who had been treated with four doses of nivolumab because of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) presented with proximal-dominant muscle weakness and fluctuating ptosis and diplopia. Serologic studies revealed increased levels of muscle enzymes including creatine phosphokinase (2934 U/L), and acetylcholine receptor antibody was positive (1.
