Post-TACE changes in ADC histogram predict overall and transplant-free survival in patients with well-defined HCC: a retrospective cohort with up to 10 years follow-up

Mohammadreza Shaghaghi et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the role of changes in ADC histogram after the first TACE in predicting overall and transplant-free survival in well-circumscribed HCC patients. Results showed that incremental percent change in ADC and decrease in ADC kurtosis were independent predictors of longer survival. Patients with a larger decrease in ADC and more homogeneous post-TACE tumors had better survival outcomes.

Practical Clinical and Diagnostic Pathway for the Investigation of the Infertile Couple

Andrea Garolla et al.

Summary: This expert opinion summarizes the current knowledge on risk factors for infertility and provides a practical clinical and diagnostic approach for infertile couples to improve the investigation and management of fertility problems. The aim is to reduce variation in practice and improve the investigation and management of fertility problems through a multidisciplinary-team designed clinical and diagnostic pathway. Prominent Italian experts developed this expert position to identify principal risk factors and suggest a diagnostic workflow for infertile couples.

Prediction Models for Successful Sperm Retrieval in Patients with Non-Obstructive Azoospermia Undergoing Microdissection Testicular Sperm Extraction: Is There Any Room for Further Studies?

Ettore Caroppo et al.

Summary: Current prediction models for successful sperm retrieval in patients with NOA lack strong accuracy for clinical application, and further research is needed to improve precision. While certain factors may influence the success rate, no specific clinical or laboratory marker can definitively determine if a patient is suitable for a particular treatment.

Predictors of testicular sperm retrieval in patients with non-obstructive azoospermia: a review

Lin Qi et al.

Summary: Azoospermia is classified into obstructive and non-obstructive types, with male partners diagnosed with non-obstructive azoospermia having previously limited options for having biological children. Advances in sperm retrieval techniques now allow these patients to undergo procedures like micro-dissection testicular sperm extraction for a higher success rate. Predicting sperm retrieval rate before surgery is crucial, although there is still no consensus on factors contributing to surgical failure.

The role of volumetric ADC histogram analysis in preoperatively evaluating the tumour subtype and grade of endometrial cancer

Xiaoliang Ma et al.

Summary: Volumetric ADC histogram analysis is useful in predicting the subtype and grade of endometrial cancer preoperatively. SECs have larger tumor volume and lower ADC percentiles compared to EACs. Additionally, ADC metrics can differentiate between different grades of EACs.

Intrasurgical parameters associated with successful sperm retrieval in patients with non-obstructive azoospermia undergoing salvage microdissection testicular sperm extraction

Ettore Caroppo et al.

Summary: The study found that the pattern of seminiferous tubules and the histological categories can affect the sperm retrieval rate in patients undergoing salvage microdissection testicular sperm extraction. The prediction model showed that slightly larger caliber tubules and not dilated tubules were negatively associated with the chance of retrieving spermatozoa.
