  • Publication number: 20260258506
    Abstract: Provided in the present application are a marker used to detect invasive bladder cancer and an application thereof, the marker being imprinted gene Grb10 and/or imprinted gene Diras3. The marker of the present application can accurately detect the invasiveness of a bladder cancer, thereby providing guidance on the choice of the surgical method to be used on the bladder cancer, reducing the chance of post-operative recurrence and metastasis. The detection method of the present application is different from its immunohistochemical counterparts in that it can reduce false positives and other negative effects. Moreover, targeting drugs or methods that are found to work at the loss-of-imprinting-affected sites of bladder-cancer-invasiveness-related imprinted genes to silence, delete, or rearrange those genes can be used to guide subsequent treatment and medication.

  • Publication number: 20260201479
    Abstract: Disclosed are a grading model for detecting the benign and malignant degree of skin tumors and an application thereof. The model grades changes of imprinted genes in tumors by calculating the expression of the loss of imprinting of the imprinted genes, the expression of the copy number variation of the imprinted genes and the total expression of the imprinted genes. The detection model and device intuitively express the presentation of the loss of imprinting on tissue and cell samples of patients with skin tumors, detect the changes of imprinted genes by means of in-situ marking objectively, intuitively and accurately in an early phase, provide a quantitative model, and make a great contribution to the diagnosis of skin tumors.

  • Publication number: 20260180947
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for a workflow communications agent. The workflow communications agent receives a message that contains task-related content and parses the message to determine whether the task-related content includes predefined segments associated with one or more predefined instruction sets. If predefined segments are identified, the WCA initiates execution of the associated predefined instruction set(s). If no predefined segments are detected, the task-related content is provided to one or more large language models (LLMs) to determine whether the content can be associated with a predefined instruction set. In certain scenarios, the WCA generates new instruction sets based on contents of the task-related content if needed, and initiates execution of the predefined or newly generated instruction sets.
