Article Abstract
Objective: To investigate the diagnostic value of high-resolution melting (HRM) analysis for oncology-associated epidermal growth factor receptor ( gene mutations.
Methods: We systematically searched Embase, PubMed, and Web of Science for HRM and mutation detection studies published through September 2024. True and false positives and negatives were extracted to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of HRM to detect mutations. The study was registered at INPLASY (INPLASY202490062).
Results: Twenty-six articles were obtained from 416 references. The overall diagnostic sensitivity and specificity were high at 0.95 [95% confidence interval (CI), 0.94-0.96] and 0.99 (95% CI, 0.99-0.99), respectively. Other indicators, including the positive likelihood ratio, negative likelihood ratio, and diagnostic odds ratio, were 144.91 (95% CI: 69.07-304.04), 0.08 (95% CI: 0.04-0.13), and 2405.21 (95% CI: 1231.87-4696.13), respectively. The Q value of the summary receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.979, and the area under the curve was 0.997.
Conclusion: As a pre-screening method, the high specificity, sensitivity, low cost, rapid turnaround, and simplicity of HRM make it a good alternative for clinical practice, but positive results must still be obtained for diagnostic confirmation. This study provides a transparent overview of relevant studies in design and conduct.

Background: Lateral malleolar avulsion fracture (LMAF) and subfibular ossicle (SFO) are distinct entities that both present as small bone fragments near the lateral malleolus on imaging, yet require different treatment strategies. Clinical and radiological differentiation is challenging, which can impede timely and precise management. On imaging, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the diagnostic gold standard for differentiating LMAF from SFO, whereas radiological differentiation on computed tomography (CT) alone is challenging in routine practice.

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.

Wearable sensors integrated with deep learning techniques have the potential to revolutionize seamless human-machine interfaces for real-time health monitoring, clinical diagnosis, and robotic applications. Nevertheless, it remains a critical challenge to simultaneously achieve desirable mechanical and electrical performance along with biocompatibility, adhesion, self-healing, and environmental robustness with excellent sensing metrics. Herein, we report a multifunctional, anti-freezing, self-adhesive, and self-healable organogel pressure sensor composed of cobalt nanoparticle encapsulated nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes (CoN CNT) embedded in a polyvinyl alcohol-gelatin (PVA/GLE) matrix.

Objective: To develop and validate a prognostic nomogram for predicting the risk of proximal ureteral impacted calculi, supporting personalized clinical management.
Methods: This retrospective, multicenter study employed a continuous cohort of 391 patients with proximal ureteral stones treated between January 2021 and April 2024. Data from Longyan People's Hospital (affiliated with Xiamen Medical College) comprised the training set, while independent external validation was performed using data from The Fifth Affiliated Hospital of Fujian University of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Copeptin, a stable glycopeptide derived from the precursor of arginine vasopressin (AVP), has emerged as a valuable surrogate biomarker for AVP due to its stability and ease of measurement. This narrative review explores the physiological role of copeptin, its utility as a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker in different kidney diseases, and its clinical relevance in renal tubular disorders. The clinical application of copeptin as a diagnostic biomarker is best established in the differential diagnosis of polyuria-polydipsia syndrome (PPS), distinguishing nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) from central diabetes insipidus (CDI) and primary polydipsia (PP).
