Background And Purpose: Determining the appropriate sample size for developing robust radiomics-based binary outcome prediction models and identifying the maximum number of predictors safely allowable within a fixed dataset size remain critical yet challenging tasks. This study aims to propose and demonstrate a structured method for addressing these issues, enhancing methodological rigor and practicality in radiomics research.
Materials And Methods: We introduce a comprehensive sample size calculation framework for binary outcome prediction models in radiomic studies.

Background And Objective: Hybrid forecasting methods aim to overcome the limitations of classical statistical approaches and deep learning models. While statistical methods provide interpretability, they often lack predictive power. Conversely, deep learning models achieve high accuracy but act as "black boxes.

Purpose: To evaluate a generative artificial intelligence (GAI) framework for creating readable lay abstracts and summaries (LASs) of urologic oncology research, while maintaining accuracy, completeness, and clarity, for the purpose of assessing their comprehension and perception among patients and caregivers.
Methods: Forty original abstracts (OAs) on prostate, bladder, kidney, and testis cancers from leading journals were selected. LASs were generated using a free GAI tool, with three versions per abstract for consistency.

Background: Postoperative late recurrence (POLAR) after 2 years from the date of surgical resection of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) represents a unique surveillance and management challenge. Despite identified risk factors, individualized prediction tools to guide personalized surveillance strategies for recurrence remain scarce. The current study sought to develop a predictive model for late recurrence among patients undergoing HCC resection.

Introduction: Physician assistant programs use summative evaluations to assess near graduates, with many using the PA Education Association (PAEA) End of Curriculum (EOC) exam to assess the medical knowledge component. Accurate identification of those students at risk of low Physician Assistant National Certifying Examination (PANCE) performance is imperative. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between the outcomes of the PAEA EOC exam and the PANCE.
