Comprehensive outreach, prevention education, and skin cancer screening for Utah ski resorts
Outdoor recreation can lead to substantial sun exposure. Employees of outdoor recreation establishments with extended time outdoors have amplified cumulative exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation and an increased risk of skin cancer. The “Sun Safe on the Slopes” program was created by Huntsman Cancer Institute at the University of Utah and the Utah Cancer Action Network to address increased UV exposure and skin cancer risk with free skin cancer screenings, outreach, and prevention education to local ski resorts. Herein, we descr ibe the processes and barriers to implementation of a ski resort skin screening and educat...

Active search screening for oral potentially malignant disorders and oral cancer and in the city of piracicaba
Oral cancer is a world public health problem. Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) represents approximately 90% of all oral malignancies and is frequently preceded by oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs). Screening programs aimed at early detection of oral lesions have been conducted. Therefore, the objective of this research was to carry out an active search screening program in the city of Piracicaba.

Sun Safety: Knowledge and Behavior among Egyptian Farmers —a Multicomponent Intervention Study
AbstractThe purpose of study was to screen for health hazards related to sun exposure and to examine the effectiveness of a sun safety multicomponent intervention designed specifically for the Egyptian farmers. A multicomponent interventional study was conducted among 128 farmers from three villages in Zagazig district, Sharkia Governorate, Egypt, from January to July 2022. It passed through three phases: phase 1: assessment of participants ’ risk of skin cancer and vision screening; phase 2: filling a semi-structured questionnaire assessing sun exposure hazards and sun safety knowledge, behavior, and barriers; and phase...

Search for immunomodulatory compounds with antiproliferative activity against melanoma
CONCLUSIONS: The most active compound with immunomodulatory properties showed multidirectional antitumor activity against cells of the A375 melanoma line and also had a synergistic pro-apoptotic effect with doxorubicin, which may result in a reduction of this cytostatic dose with increased effectiveness.PMID:36774726 | DOI:10.1016/j.biopha.2023.114374

Quantifying uncertainty in machine learning classifiers for medical imaging
CONCLUSIONS: This paper demonstrated the importance of uncertainty reporting alongside predictions in medical imaging. Results demonstrate considerable potential from automatically assessing classifier reliability on each prediction with the proposed uncertainty metric.PMID:35278156 | DOI:10.1007/s11548-022-02578-3

Cross-convolutional transformer for automated multi-organs segmentation in a variety of medical images
Phys Med Biol. 2023 Jan 9. doi: 10.1088/1361-6560/acb19a. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTObjective It's a huge challenge for multi-organs segmentation in various medical images based on a consistent algorithm with the development of deep learning methods. We therefore develop a deep learning method based on cross-convolutional transformer for these automated- segmentation to obtain better generalization and accuracy. Approach We propose a cross-convolutional transformer network (C2Former) to solve the segmentation problem. Specifically, we first redesign a novel cross-convolutional self-attention mechanism in terms of the a...

Medical and Personal Characteristics Can Predict the Risk of Lung Metastasis
CONCLUSIONS: Using a machine learning-based approach, we revealed new correlations between personal and medical characteristics of patients with cancer and lung metastasis. This study highlights the previously unknown impact of predictors such as obesity, advanced age and underlying lung disease on the occurrence of lung metastasis. This prediction model can assist physicians with preventive risk factor control and treatment strategies.PMID:36967312 | DOI:10.1016/j.clon.2023.03.003
