Purpose: To establish an explainable machine learning (ML) approach using patient-related and noncontrast chest CT-derived features to predict the contrast material arrival time (TARR) in CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA).
Materials And Methods: This retrospective study included consecutive patients referred for CTPA between September 2023 to October 2024. Sixteen clinical and 17 chest CT-derived parameters were used as inputs for the ML approach, which employed recursive feature elimination for feature selection and XGBoost with SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) for explainable modeling.

Objective: This study investigates the biomechanical effects of long-term Tai Chi practice on the knee meniscus through biomechanical experimentation and finite element simulation, focusing on practitioners performing Knee Brushing and Twisting Step. The findings aim to establish scientific guidelines for optimizing exercise protocols in middle-aged and elderly populations.
Methods: Twenty male middle-aged and elderly practitioners were recruited, divided into a Beginner Group (BG: n = 10), and an Experienced Group (EG: n = 10).

Background: Trophoblastic differentiation or beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG) secretion in endometrial carcinoma has been associated with poorly differentiated and aggressive tumors; however, the evidence is largely inconclusive. The review aimed to explore the prognostic role of trophoblastic differentiation and β-hCG in non-trophoblastic, primary uterine corpus cancers.
Methodology: A comprehensive electronic search across databases was conducted for all cases of cancers of the uterine corpus that were either associated with elevated levels of β-hCG or showed evidence of trophoblastic differentiation upon microscopy or both.
