[Problems in defining melanoma regression and prognostic implication].
Between 10 % and 35 % of all melanomas show histological regression. That is, there is an area within the melanoma where the tumor retreats or disappears to be progressively replaced by fibrosis with presence of melanophages and variable degrees of inflammation, and neovascularization. Such regression is generally considered an indicator of poor prognosis in melanoma, although a number of studi...
متن کاملPrognostic Biomarkers in Melanoma
Biomarkers are tumouror host-related factors that correlate with tumour biological behaviour and patient prognosis. Modern analytical techniques have identified numerous possible biomarkers, but their relevance to melanoma progression, clinical outcome and the selection of optimal treatment strategies still needs to be established. In this review, we discuss common predictive biomarkers of mela...
متن کاملDefining implication relation for classical logic
Classical logic is unfortunately defective with its problematic definition of implication relation, the “material implication”. This work presents a corrected definition of implication relation to replace material implication in classical logic. Common “paradoxes” of material implication are avoided while simplicity and usefulness of the system are reserved with this definition of implication r...
متن کاملComparing the Results of Logistic Regression Model and Classification and Regression Tree Analysis in Determining Prognostic Factors for Coronary Artery Disease in Mashhad, Iran
Background and purpose: Understanding of the risk factors for cardiovascular artery disease, which is the leading cause of death worldwide, can lead to essential changes in its etiology, prevalence, and treatment. The aim of this study was to compare the results of logistic regression model and Classification and Regression Tree Analysis (CART) in determining the prognostic factors for coronary...
متن کاملSerum enzymes in heat stroke: prognostic implication.
We measured serum creatine kinase (CK), lactate dehydrogenase (LD), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) in 26 heat stroke (HS) victims and 10 control (non-heat-exhausted) subjects during annual Hajj in Makkah, Saudi Arabia. On admission to the HS treatment unit, serum CK, AST, ALT, and LD were higher in HS victims than controls (P < 0.05), and at 6, 12, an...
