Latest AI and machine learning research in preventive care for healthcare professionals.
Amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) is often considered an early clinical stage of Alzheimer's disease (AD), but its subtle presentation leads to infrequent neurological evaluations. Early plasma biomarker screening during routine check-ups in community hospitals could enhance aMCI detection rates. Advances in proteomics, particularly mass spectrometry, have enabled the detection of low-abun...
BACKGROUND: The global COVID-19 vaccine rollout faces challenges from persistent hesitancy, especially in rural and underserved regions. Alaska's unique geographic, cultural, and infrastructural challenges create complex dynamics for vaccine uptake. OBJECTIVE: This study uses machine learning on survey data to identify key sociodemographic and attitudinal predictors of hesitancy, informing targete...
