This study looked back at medical records to see if adding three oral medications (thalidomide, carmofur, and compound mylabris capsules) to a standard liver cancer procedure (TACE) helped patients live longer. It involved 545 people with advanced liver cancer that couldn't be re…

This study looked at whether the drug evolocumab could reduce the risk of future major heart problems in people who had a heart attack and had multiple blocked arteries. Researchers followed 1,862 patients for two years to see if the drug lowered risks like another heart attack, …

This study looked back at the medical records of over 1,600 patients with esophageal cancer to compare two different surgical techniques. Researchers wanted to see if a newer, less invasive method (IVMTE) led to fewer complications after surgery and better long-term survival comp…

This study investigated whether the diabetes medication canagliflozin could reduce harmful scarring in the heart muscle of people with type 2 diabetes who are at high risk for heart disease. Researchers used special heart scans to measure scarring in 45 participants before and af…

This study observed 322 patients with severe, complete blockages inside previously placed leg artery stents. It aimed to see how well newer, minimally invasive procedures could keep these arteries open and prevent patients from needing repeat surgeries over two years. The researc…

This study looked at whether a new 3D measurement method (TDTP-RECIST) works better than the current standard (RECIST 1.1) for tracking how irregularly shaped tumors respond to pre-surgery treatment. Researchers reviewed past medical scans and records of 120 adults with breast, p…

This study tested if starting with a special CT scan could help doctors diagnose a type of heart attack without needing an invasive angiogram for all patients. It involved 180 people with suspected heart attacks and compared the CT-first approach to the standard practice of immed…

This study tested whether an artificial intelligence (AI) tool could help doctors better manage Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), a severe form of lung failure. The AI analyzed patients' chest CT scans and medical data to classify the disease's severity, predict the ris…

This study compared two drugs, ciprofol and propofol, used to sedate patients before inserting a breathing tube in the intensive care unit (ICU). It involved 100 critically ill adults to see which drug caused fewer dangerous drops in blood pressure and other complications during …

This study looked at 3000 people with advanced lung cancer to create a prediction model. Researchers analyzed medical scans, blood tests, and lung function results to predict which patients would benefit most from immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy. The model also aims to i…

This study aimed to understand the connection between high blood sugar caused by severe illness and changes in heart rate patterns, which reflect nervous system stress. Researchers observed 20 non-diabetic, critically ill adults to see if blood sugar and hormone levels were linke…
