Latest AI and machine learning research in nephrology for healthcare professionals.
Endomyocardial biopsy (EMB) screening represents the standard of care for detecting allograft rejections after heart transplant. Manual interpretation of EMBs is affected by substantial interobserver and intraobserver variability, which often leads to inappropriate treatment with immunosuppressive drugs, unnecessary follow-up biopsies and poor transplant outcomes. Here we present a deep learning-b...
The hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) is the gold standard for cirrhotic portal hypertension (PHT), but it is invasive and specialized. Alternative non-invasive techniques are needed to assess the hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG). Here, we develop an auto-machine-learning CT radiomics HVPG quantitative model (HVPG), and then we validate the model in internal and external test datasets...
In this narrative review, we focus on the application of artificial intelligence in the clinical history of patients with glomerular disease, digital ...
BACKGROUND: Until today, assessment of renal function has remained a challenge for modern medicine. In many cases, kidney diseases accompanied by a de...
This study was aimed at exploring the effect of ultrasound image evaluation of comprehensive nursing scheme based on artificial intelligence algorithm...
PURPOSE: This study compared proximal and distal embolization of the splenic artery (SA) in patients with splenic artery steal syndrome (SAS) after or...
Here, various synaptic functions and neural network simulation based pattern-recognition using novel, solution-processed organic memtransistors (memTs...
BACKGROUND: We evaluated the accuracy, safety, and feasibility of a computed tomography (CT)-guided robotic assistance system for percutaneous needle ...
Robot-assisted donor nephrectomy (RDN) is increasingly used due to its advantages such as its precision and reduced learning curve when compared to la...
Determining the solubility of non-hydrocarbon gases such as carbon dioxide (CO) and nitrogen (N) in water and brine is one of the most controversial c...
OBJECTIVES: Martini et al. developed a nomogram to predict significant (>25%) renal function loss after robot-assisted partial nephrectomy and identif...
Switching from a three-drug regimen (3DR: boosted darunavir [bDRV] and two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors [NRTIs]) to a two-drug regimen...
(GT) is a native perennial plant growing across the coastline areas in Taiwan. The current study aimed to examine the efficacy of GT extract in ameli...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Ultrasound imaging has been widely used in the screening of kidney diseases. The localization and segmentation of the kidney...
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a common complication of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and induces increased mortality among COPD patien...
Heart failure is the most common cause of death in both males and females around the world. Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), in particular, are the mai...
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) has become a widespread disease among people. It is related to various serious risks like cardiovascular disease, heighte...
PURPOSE: Early detection and size quantification of renal calculi are important for optimizing treatment and preventing severe kidney stone disease. P...
CONTEXT: The development of a tailored, patient-specific medical and surgical approach is becoming object of intense research. In kidney oncologic sur...
