A retrospective study on influencing factors of postoperative hospital stay and development of a predictive scoring model for elderly patients (≥70 years) with colorectal cancer undergoing laparoscopic radical resection

  Background:  With the accelerating global population aging, the proportion of elderly patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) undergoing laparoscopic radical resection is increasing annually. However, significant individual variations in postoperative hospital stay exist, and convenient clinical prediction tools remain lacking. This study aimed to develop and validate a simplified predictive scoring model for postoperative hospital stay in elderly CRC patients after laparoscopic radical resection. Read More

Artificial Intelligence in melanoma research: a bibliometric analysis

  Abstract Background:  As one of the most lethal skin cancers, melanoma has encountered many obstacles in diagnosis and therapy. Artificial Intelligence (AI) can help improve early diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of melanoma. However, there is a lack of detailed and accurate bibliometric analysis of the field. Methods:  All publications were extracted from Web of Science Core Collection based on AI and melanoma terms. Bibliometric analysis was conducted on 1,476 articles/reviews by using VOSviewer, CiteSpace and bibliometrix for co-authorship, citation, keyword and journal analysis. Read More
