An Improved Kidney Tumor Prediction Using Deep Convolutional Neural Network-Restricted Boltzmann Machine Technique in Medical Image Segmentation

Automatic medical image segmentation has become increasingly important as contemporary medical imaging has become more widely available and used. Existing image segmentation solutions however lack the necessary functionality for simple medical image segmentation pipeline design. Pipelines that have already been deployed are frequently standalone software that has been optimised for a certain public data collection. As a result, the open-source python module deep-Convolutional neural network-Restricted Boltzmann Machine (deep CNNRBM) was introduced in this research work. The goal of Deep CNN-purpose RBMs is to have an easy-touse API that allows for the rapid creation of medical image segmentation transmission lines that include data augmentation, metrics, data I/O pre-processing, patch wise analysis, a library of pre-built deep neural networks, and fully automated assessment. Similarly, comprehensive pipeline customisation is possible because of strong configurability and many open interfaces. The dataset of Kidney tumor Segmentation challenge 2019 (KiTS19) acquired a strong predictor with respect to the standard 3D U-net model after cross-validation using deep CNNRBM. To that purpose, deep CNN-RBM, an expressive deep learning medical image segmentation architecture is introduced. The CNN sub-model captures frame-level spatial features automatically while the RBM submodel fuses spatial data over time to learn higher-level semantics in kidney tumor prediction. A neural network recognises medical picture segmentation, which is initiated using RBM to second-order collected data and then fine-tuned using back propagation to be more differential. According to the simulation outcome, the proposed deep CNN-RBM produced good classification results on the kidney tumour segmentation dataset.

Kidney microbiome in patients with kidney carcinoma: Role of SA and SNZ gene expression

IntroductionA kidney tumor is among the 10 most common cancers. Among kidney tumors, renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is one of the most common types with an alarming increasing incidence rate. Although the disruption of microbiota is an established factor in the progression of intestinal cancers, its role in other types of cancers has been under-studied.Material and methodsIn this study, the microbiome disruption and the involvement of SNZ (SCHNARCHZAPFEN) and SA (Stromalin) genes in the development of kidney cancer have been focused on using a combination of genetic and bioinformatic analysis. The microbiomes of kidney tumor patients were analyzed using various genetic and bioinformatic variations. Genetic and bioinformatic analyses were performed to identify operational taxonomic units (OTUs), SNZ, SA, and annotate species were determined using 41 samples from a population of kidney tumors.ResultsThe whole samples from the kidney tumor of patients were screened by PCR amplification and a total of 1317 OTUs were identified. Among them, 379 were common among the two populations, 766 were unique to the SA gene, and 172 to SNZ. SA was more abundant in Gammaproteobacteria and bacilli, while SNZ had a higher abundance in bacteroidia and actinobacteria. Correlation analysis was performed to find out the bacteria that were differentially expressed among the population samples.ConclusionsTo sum up, our study reveals that SA and SNZ are differentially expressed in the microbiome of the kidney tumor that is associated with the development of kidney tumors such as renal cell carcinoma in human populations.

Metanephric Adenoma: A Case Report of a Rare Benign Renal Tumor

Introduction: Metanephric adenoma (MA) is a rare benign kidney tumor with an excellent prognosis, which is usually diagnosed incidentally with no symptoms. The mean age of patients with MA is about 41 years, ranging from 5 months to 83 years in previous studies. Case Presentation: In this study, we present the case of a 29-year-old woman with a diagnosis of MA after nephrectomy. The ultrasound study showed a hyperechoic mass. The intravenous (IV) contrast-enhanced abdominopelvic computed tomography (CT) scan showed a hypodense mass. Based on the results of pathological features and immunohistochemistry (IHC) (positive vimentin, WT1, and PAX8), the diagnosis of MA was established. Conclusions: The diagnosis of MA is commonly based on pathological findings. Therefore, if MA is suspected, renal biopsy, partial nephrectomy, or follow-up of the patient can be used. However, further studies are needed to differentiate MA from papillary renal cell carcinoma and nephroblastoma before taking aggressive measures.

Wilms’ Tumor in Horseshoe Kidney

Wilms’ tumor is the most common malignant kidney tumor found in children. The Horseshoe kidney is the most common renal fusion malformation. However, Wilms’ tumor is rarely identified in horseshoe kidney patients. Multimodal treatments in Wilms’ tumor can play important roles in increasing the survival rate. In this study, we report the case of a 6-year-old boy in whom a Wilms’ tumor was identified in a horseshoe kidney. The tumor was successfully treated with preoperative chemotherapy, followed by surgical resection.
