Osimertinib is active against T790M-positive epidermal growth factor receptor mutant non-small cell lung cancer. We enrolled 122 sensitive epidermal growth factor receptor mutant non-small cell lung cancer patients who were planned to receive or were receiving first-/second-generation epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors without disease progression and monitored plasma T790M every 1-2 months using the cobas® EGFR Mutation Test v2. We previously reported the concordance between T790M status in plasma and tissue. This is the final report on the sensitivity of plasma T790M and the efficacy of sequential osimertinib. The sensitivity was 21.1% (95% confidence interval: 6.1-45.6%). The best overall response was 25.0% (95% confidence interval: 9.8-46.7) in the plasma T790M-positive group and 28.6% (95% confidence interval: 8.4-58.1) in the plasma T790M-negative but tissue T790M-positive group. Median progression-free survival was 7.9 months (95% confidence interval: 4.7-17.5) for the former and 4.4 months (95% confidence interval: 3.0-N.E.) for the latter, with no statistically significant difference (P = 0.74).

Myocarditis is an inflammation of heart tissue. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) has emerged as an important non-invasive imaging tool for diagnosing myocarditis, however, interpretation remains a challenge for novice physicians. Advancements in machine learning (ML) models have further improved diagnostic accuracy, demonstrating good performance.

The outcome of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) compared to coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is still controversial for patients with left main coronary artery (LMCA) disease. This multicenter cohort study aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes of LMCA disease patients who underwent PCI or CABG. We reviewed 875 consecutive patients diagnosed with LMCA disease between January 2009 and December 2020 who underwent coronary revascularization by PCI (n = 404) or CABG (n = 471).

Background: Chagas heart disease (ChD) is a significant public health concern in Latin America, contributing to a high incidence of sudden cardiac death (SCD). Despite advances in heart failure treatment, management of Chagas cardiomyopathy has not progressed accordingly. While ICDs are effective for primary and secondary prevention in other conditions, patients with ChD often experience more frequent episodes of ventricular tachycardia, and ICD use may provide a negative impact and increase mortality.

Introduction: Remote ischaemic preconditioning (RIPC) which consists of repeated brief episodes of non-lethal limb ischaemia is associated with organ protection and improved clinical outcomes through complex pathophysiological pathways. The aim of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the postoperative effects of RIPC in bowel recovery and surgical morbidity after colorectal surgery.
Methods: In strict adherence to the PRISMA guidelines, a systematic literature search was performed for studies comparing the postoperative effect RIPC in colorectal surgery.

Background: We aimed to develop and validate a radiomics-based machine learning nomogram using multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging to preoperatively predict substantial lymphovascular space invasion in patients with endometrial cancer.
Methods: This retrospective dual-center study included patients with histologically confirmed endometrial cancer who underwent preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The patients were divided into training and test sets.
