Background And Objective: The use of blood-based risk prediction tools has been proposed to improve prostate cancer screening, but data on repeated screening are lacking. Our aim was to compare outcomes using the blood tests prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and Stockholm3 for repeat prostate cancer screening.
Methods: In the population-based screening-by-invitation STHLM3-MRI trial, men aged 50-74 yr were invited to participate in screening.

Background: The role of isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation status for glioma stratification and prognosis is established. While structural magnetic resonance image (MRI) is a promising biomarker, it may not be sufficient for non-invasive characterisation of IDH mutation status. We investigated the diagnostic value of combined diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and structural MRI enhanced by a deep radiomics approach based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and support vector machine (SVM), to determine the IDH mutation status in Central Nervous System World Health Organization (CNS WHO) grade 2-4 gliomas.

Importance: Prostate cancer guidelines often recommend obtaining magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) before a biopsy, yet MRI access is limited. To date, no randomized clinical trial has compared the use of novel biomarkers for risk estimation vs MRI-based diagnostic approaches for prostate cancer screening.
Objective: To evaluate biomarker-based risk estimation (Stockholm3 risk scores or prostate-specific antigen [PSA] levels) with systematic biopsies vs an MRI-enhanced strategy (PSA levels and MRI with systematic and targeted biopsy) for the detection of clinically significant prostate cancer in a screening setting.

Objective: Compare the levels of plasma neurofilament light (NfL) in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) at acute and remission stages and healthy individuals to explore the role of plasma NfL in monitoring the activity and severity of the disease and predicting disease prognosis.
Methods: Information on healthy individuals and patients with MS who visited the outpatient and inpatient departments of Inner Mongolia Medical University Affiliated Hospital from October 2020 to August 2022 was collected. EDSS assessment and plain scan+enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
