DOI: 10.1093/eurheartj/ehz745.0560
Abstract: Based on the ESC guidelines on Atrial Fibrillation, oral anticoagulation is recommended in male patients with CHA2DS2-VASC score ≥1, in females if CHA2DS2-VASC is ≥2. In our research, we evaluated if there are patients at… read more here.

DOI: 10.1158/1538-7445.am2023-3005
Abstract: Pre-diagnosis circulating leukocyte profiles, including higher white blood cell (WBC) counts and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratios (NLR), have been reported to be associated with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) risk. Higher neutrophil levels were recently reported to… read more here.

DOI: 10.4310/21-sii696
Abstract: Estimation of the three key parameters: onset age of the preclinical state, sojourn time and screening sensitivity is critical in cancer screening, since all other terms are functions of the three. A novel link function… read more here.
