Aims Of Nursing01:29

Aims Of Nursing

15.9K
Nursing involves independent, cooperative, person-centered care for people of all ages, families, groups, and communities. Nurses assist the sick or the well person in all settings. Nursing includes promoting health, preventing illness, and caring for ill, disabled, and dying people. Health promotion encourages people to take responsibility for their health. It focuses on the healthy behavior of individuals, families, and the community and the factors that impact their health. Examples of...

Automatic Processing and Automatic Social Behavior01:28

Automatic Processing and Automatic Social Behavior

222
Automatic processing refers to the cognitive operations that occur without conscious intent or awareness, playing a fundamental role in shaping social cognition and behavior. These processes enable individuals to navigate complex social environments efficiently by relying on mental shortcuts and pre-existing knowledge structures known as schemas. One of the most influential mechanisms underlying automatic processing is priming, which subtly activates mental representations through exposure to...

Genome Annotation and Assembly03:36

Genome Annotation and Assembly

20.6K
The genome refers to all of the genetic material in an organism. It can range from a few million base pairs in microbial cells to several billion base pairs in many eukaryotic organisms. Genome assembly refers to the process of taking the DNA sequencing data and putting it all back together in a correct order to create a close representation of the original genome. This is followed by the identification of functional elements on the newly assembled genome, a process called genome annotation.

Cancer Stem Cells and Tumor Maintenance02:40

Cancer Stem Cells and Tumor Maintenance

5.9K
Early diagnosis and treatment can often cure cancer. However, even with treatment, residual cells called cancer stem cells (CSC) might remain, often causing tumor recurrence. These cancer stem cells possess the potential for self-renewal and multi-lineage differentiation and are often responsible for the therapeutic resistance displayed in most cancers.
Cancer stem cells are thought to originate from tissue-specific normal stem cells or progenitor cells. The normal stem cells usually reside in...

Cancer-Critical Genes II: Tumor Suppressor Genes

9.4K
Genes usually encode proteins necessary for the proper functioning of a healthy cell. Mutations can often cause changes to the gene expression pattern, thereby altering the phenotype.
When the function of certain critical genes, especially those involved in cell cycle regulation and cell growth signaling cascades, gets disrupted, it upsets the cell cycle progression. Such cells with unchecked cell cycles start proliferating uncontrollably and eventually develop into tumors.
Such genes that act...

Stages of Infection01:26

Stages of Infection

65.0K
Stages of infection describe what happens to a susceptible host once a pathogen invades the human body. The stages of infection are incubation, prodromal, illness, stage of decline, and convalescence. The incubation stage is the period from exposure to a pathogen until symptoms start. The infected person is unaware of impending illness as the pathogens grow and multiply within the body. The duration may vary depending on the type of infection. The incubation period of measles averages ten to...

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Radiology
  • Artificial Intelligence in Medicine

Background:

  • Accurate cancer staging is critical for effective patient treatment planning.
  • Current TNM staging implementation can be time-consuming and prone to errors for clinicians.
  • A reliable second opinion tool can aid radiologists in cancer staging assessments.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate an automated TNM classifier for liver cancer staging.
  • To assist radiologists by providing a second opinion on cancer staging using semantic annotations.
  • To improve the accuracy and efficiency of the cancer staging process.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a TNM classifier using semantic annotations from radiologists via the ePAD tool.
  • Transformed annotations (AIM format) into AIM4-O ontology instances using axioms and rules.
  • Utilized a dataset of 51 liver radiology reports from NCI's Genomic Data Commons for evaluation.

Main Results:

  • The TNM classifier achieved 85.7% precision and 81.0% recall compared to physician-assigned stages.
  • Independent radiologists confirmed the tool's staging accuracy on a sample of records.
  • The developed AIM4-O ontology demonstrated good performance in representing annotation data.

Conclusions:

  • The developed TNM classifier offers a valuable second opinion for liver cancer staging.
  • Integration into AIM-aware tools like ePAD can enhance cancer treatment workflows.
  • This AI-driven approach can reduce errors and improve efficiency in clinical staging.
