Being able to predict a patient's life expectancy can help doctors and patients prioritize treatments supportive care. For predicting expectancy, physicians have been shown outperform traditional models that use only few predictor variables. It is possible machine learning model uses many variables diverse data sources from the electronic medical record improve on physicians' performance. with metastatic cancer, we compared accuracy of predictions by treating physician, model, model.A was...

The aim of this study was to report local failure (LF) outcomes and associated predictors in patients with oligometastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) treated stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR).We retrospectively reviewed CRC metastases the brain, liver, spine, or lung SABR between 2001 2016. Time LF summarized using cumulative incidence curves death as a competing risk.The analysis included total 130 256 lesions. Of treated, 129 (50%) were 50 (20%) 49 (19%) 28 (11%) lung. Median gross...

The risk management community has had a limited focus on the scales-measurement theory and typically applies all forms of parametric analysis ordinal data. In many cases resulting conclusions that are developed flawed misleading. Risk professionals should be cognizant impacts underlying scales measurements. It is authors' position application best practices comprehensively mitigate controversy necessary for avoiding significant negative lead to misguided decision making.

Introduction: Over-the-counter (OTC) non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are commonly used despite conferring risk for adverse cardiovascular events (ACEs). ACEs disproportionately affect Black individuals, yet patterns of OTC NSAID and high-potency powder (HPP-NSAID) use among different racial groups remains understudied. Hypothesis: We hypothesized that NSAIDs HPP-NSAIDs is higher individuals. Methods: analyzed data from the North Carolina Colon Cancer study, a population-based...
