We found that exclusion of small glands led to improvement in classification accuracy. Using an inclusion threshold of 200 nuclei per gland, our final model classification accuracy was 77.5% in the validation set, with a positive predictive value of 0.81. We leveraged this high positive predictive value in a point cloud overlay display to assist end-user identification of EIN foci. This study demonstrates that graph theory approaches applied to small-scale anatomic elements in the endometrium allow biologic classification by machine learning, and that spatial superimposition over large-scale tissue expanses can have practical diagnostic utility. We expect this augmented diagnostic approach to be generalizable to commonly encountered problems in other organ systems. © 2020 The Pathological Society of Great Britain and Ireland.

They can sense nutrients and metabolites in the circulation such as glucose, then signal to neuronal systems to influence ingestive behaviour and energy storage, and ultimately affect body weight. The complex structure of tanycytes underpins this function, and communication is dependent upon connexin-43 gap junctions between tanycytes. This Editorial highlights studies by Recabal and coworkers (Recabal et al., 2020) in the current issue that shed some light on how this happens, and on how FGF2 might induce plasticity in hypothalamic structure through changes in tanycyte function that are dependent on connexin-43 hemichannels.

Many different histopathological factors related to the primary colorectal tumour have been well studied; however, histopathological prognostic factors related to CRLMs are still under evaluation. To identify histopathological factors related to overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) in patients with resected CRLMs. A systematic review was performed with the following databases up to August 2020 PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, SciELO, and LILACS. The GRADE approach was used to rate the overall certainty of evidence by outcome. Thirty-three studies including 4,641 patients were eligible. We found very low certainty evidence that the following histopathological prognostic factors are associated with a statistically significant decrease in OS presence of portal vein invasion (HR, 0,50 [95% CI, 0,37 to 0,68]; I²=0%), presence of perineural invasion (HR, 0,55 [95% CI, 0,36 to 0,83]; I²=0%), absence of pseudocapsule (HR, 0,41 [CI 95%, 0,29 to 0,57], p<0,00001; I²=0%), presence of satellite nodules (OR, 0,45 [95% CI, 0,26 to 0,80]; I²=0%), and the absence of peritumoural inflammatory infiltrate (OR, 0,20 [95% CI, 0,08 to 0,54]; I²=0%). Outcome data on DFS were scarce, except for tumour borders, which did not present a significant impact, precluding the meta-analysis. Of the histopathological prognostic factors studied, low- to moderate-certainty evidence shows that vascular invasion, perineural invasion, absence of pseudocapsule, presence of satellite nodules, and absence of peritumoral inflammatory infiltrate are associated with shorter overall survival in CRLMs. Of the histopathological prognostic factors studied, low- to moderate-certainty evidence shows that vascular invasion, perineural invasion, absence of pseudocapsule, presence of satellite nodules, and absence of peritumoral inflammatory infiltrate are associated with shorter overall survival in CRLMs.Choosing the right anaesthetic technique and postoperative analgesia after major surgery can be a great challenge for paediatric anaesthetists, especially when younger children are concerned.
