The G-protein-coupled cannabinoid receptor type 2 (CB2R) is a key element of the endocannabinoid (EC) system. EC/CB2R signaling has significant therapeutic potential in major pathologies affecting humans such as allergies, neurodegenerative disorders, inflammation or ocular diseases. CB2R agonism exerts anti-inflammatory and tissue protective effects in preclinical animal models of cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, liver, kidney, lung and neurodegenerative disorders. Existing ligands can be subdivided into endocannabinoids, cannabinoid-like and synthetic CB2R ligands that possess various degrees of potency on and selectivity against the cannabinoid receptor type 1. This review is an account of granted CB2R ligand patents from 2010 up to the present, which were surveyed using Derwent Innovation®.
This study aims to build machine learning-based CT radiomic features to predict patients developing metastasis after osteosarcoma diagnosis.

This retrospective study has included 81 patients with a histopathological diagnosis of osteosarcoma. The entire dataset was divided randomly into training (60%) and test sets (40%). A data augmentation technique for the minority class was performed in the training set, along with feature's selection and model's training. The radiomic features were extracted from CT's image of the local osteosarcoma. Three frequently used machine learning models tried to predict patients with lung metastases (MT) and those without lung metastases (non-MT). According to the higher area under the curve (AUC), the best classifier was chosen and applied in the testing set with unseen data to provide an unbiased evaluation of the final model.

The best classifier for predicting MT and non-MT groups used a Random Forest algorithm. The AUC and accuracy results of the test set were bulky (accuracy of 73% [ 95% coefficient interval (CI) 54%; 87%] and AUC of 0.79 [95% CI 0.62; 0.96]). Features that fitted the model (radiomics signature) derived from Laplacian of Gaussian and wavelet filters.

Machine learning-based CT radiomics approach can provide a non-invasive method with a fair predictive accuracy of the risk of developing pulmonary metastasis in osteosarcoma patients.

Models based on CT radiomic analysis help assess the risk of developing pulmonary metastases in patients with osteosarcoma, allowing further studies for those with a worse prognosis.

To determine the impact of Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) oropharyngeal cancer (OPC) status on the prediction of head and neck squamous cell cancer (HNSCC) chemoradiotherapy (CRT) outcomes with pre-treatment quantitative diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI).

Following ethical approval, 65 participants (53 male, age 59.9 ± 7.86) underwent pre-treatment DW-MRI in this prospective cohort observational study. There were 46 HPV OPC and 19 other HNSCC cases with stage III/IV HNSCC. Regions of interest (ROIs) (volume, largest area, core) at the primary tumour (
= 57) and largest pathological node (
= 59) were placed to analyse ADC
and ADC
. Unpaired t-test or Mann-Whitney test evaluated the impact of HPV OPC status and clinical parameters on their prediction of post-CRT 2 year loco-regional and disease-free survival (LRFS and DFS). Multivariate logistic regression compared significant variables with 2 year outcomes.

On univariate analysis of all participants, the primary tumour area ADC
was predictive of 2 year LRFS (
= 0.04). However, only the HPV OPC diagnosis (LFRS
= 0.03; DFS
= 0.02) predicted outcomes on multivariate analysis. None of the pre-treatment ADC values were predictive of 2 year DFS in the HPV OPC subgroup (
= 0.21-0.68). Amongst participants without 2 year disease-free survival, HPV-OPC was found to have much lower primary tumour ADC
values than other HNSCC.

Knowledge of HPV OPC status is required in order to determine the impact of the pre-treatment ADC values on post-CRT outcomes in HNSCC.

Pre-treatment ADC
and ADC
values acquired using different ROI methods are not predictive of 2 year survival outcomes in HPV OPC.
Pre-treatment ADCmean and ADCmin values acquired using different ROI methods are not predictive of 2 year survival outcomes in HPV OPC.
To compare the diagnostic performance of a newly developed artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm derived from the fusion of convolution neural networks (CNN) versus human observers in the estimation of malignancy risk in pulmonary nodules.

The study population consists of 158 nodules from 158 patients. All nodules (81 benign and 77 malignant) were determined to be malignant or benign by a radiologist based on pathologic assessment and/or follow-up imaging. Two radiologists and an AI platform analyzed the nodules based on the Lung-RADS classification. The two observers also noted the size, location, and morphologic features of the nodules. An intraclass correlation coefficient was calculated for both observers and the AI; ROC curve analysis was performed to determine diagnostic performances.

Nodule size, presence of spiculation, and presence of fat were significantly different between the malignant and benign nodules (
< 0.001, for all three). Eighteen (11.3%) nodules were not detected and analyzede use of fusion of deep learning neural networks might be used in a supportive role for radiologists when interpreting lung nodule discrimination.
Official conference participants (OCPs) consisting of speakers, moderators, discussants, and presenters) with conflicts of interest (COI) could negatively influence the audience's ability to fairly evaluate information if their COI is not properly disclosed. We aim to examine the patterns of COI disclosures by OCPs and the nature and extent of financial compensation at 3 annual trauma conferences.

A retrospective cohort analysis of COI disclosures of OCPs, in the EAST, WTA, and AAST Annual Meetings from 2016 to 2019. Tazemetostat concentration The Open Payments Database (OPD) was used to describe the nature and extent of financial compensation. Descriptive statistics and independent sample t-tests were performed with significance defined as
< .05.

Eastern Association for the Surgery of Trauma conflicts of interest ranged from 3.8 to 6.0% of OCPs. Moderators, discussants, and presenters comprised decreasing proportions disclosing COIs, whereas speakers comprised an increasing proportion. Western Trauma Association
conflicts of interest ranged from 1.
