Latest AI and machine learning research in preventive care for healthcare professionals.
Infectious diseases caused by pathogenic microorganisms (such as Escherichia coli, Avian influenza virus (AIV), Rotavirus, etc.) that primarily invade through mucosal surfaces like the digestive tract and respiratory tract not only severely restrict the development of the livestock and poultry breeding industry, resulting in huge economic losses, but also threaten public health security due to the...
BACKGROUND: Tobacco use disorder (TUD) remains the leading preventable cause of death globally, yet fewer than one-third of users receive guideline-concordant care due to workforce shortages and training gaps. Emerging artificial intelligence (AI) systems, particularly large language models (LLMs), may help expand access to evidence-based cessation support, but their clinical competence remains in...
AIMS: The vast majority of sudden cardiac death (SCD) cases occur in the general population with few known risk factors instead of just patients alrea...
BACKGROUND: The COVID-19 vaccine was introduced as a crucial tool to combat the pandemic. However, concerns about its effectiveness, side effects, and...
Effective feature selection is critical for building robust and interpretable predictive models, particularly in medical applications where identifyin...
OBJECTIVES: Identifying patients likely to benefit from an echocardiogram before surgery is prudent in resource-limited settings. Recently, artificial...
Artificial intelligence (AI), particularly deep learning (DL), is transforming the field of medical imaging and holds substantial promise for advancin...
AIMS: Electronic health records (EHR) can be used to target atrial fibrillation (AF) screening. We evaluated the performance of risk prediction models...
Vaccination remains one of the most cost-effective methods for disease prevention. However, utilization of self-paid vaccines, including EV71, varicel...
Tuberculosis (TB), caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), remains one of the deadliest infectious diseases worldwide. Despite advances in treatme...
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI)-based algorithms are being implemented in breast screening to detect breast cancers on mammographic images. W...
UNLABELLED: Timely diagnosis and intervention in colorectal cancer are critical to improving patient outcomes and limiting disease progression. Screen...
BACKGROUND: Visual impairment (VI) affects more than 600 million people globally and significantly reduces quality of life. In Singapore, 20% of adult...
RNA-based technologies have demonstrated significant potential for diverse applications, ranging from vaccination to gene editing. However, their wide...
Fetal and neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (FNAIT) is a major cause of severe thrombocytopenia, intracranial hemorrhage, and long-term neurologica...
INTRODUCTION: Idiopathic scoliosis (IS) is a 3-dimensional spinal deformity that affects ∼3.1% of the population. Current strategies for IS screening ...
BACKGROUND: Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring is indispensable for diagnosing nocturnal hypertension (NH) among patients with chronic kidney diseas...
Rabies disease is the deadliest of all virus infections. Till now, vaccination is the most effective and reliable treatment for controlling rabies. Ho...
