Latest AI and machine learning research in primary care for healthcare professionals.
This paper introduces an innovative Electronic Health Record (EHR) foundation model that integrates Polygenic Risk Scores (PRS) as a foundational data modality, moving beyond traditional EHR-only approaches to build more holistic health profiles. Leveraging the extensive and diverse data from the All of Us (AoU) Research Program, this multimodal framework aims to learn complex relationships betwee...
Primary and metastatic brain tumors are among the deadliest and treatment-resistant cancers, mainly because of their inherent resistance to chemoradiation and limited drug delivery across the blood–brain barrier (BBB). Identifying molecules that can cross the BBB and serve as sonosensitizers is crucial for developing noninvasive, targeted therapies such as sonodynamic therapy (SDT). To overcome th...
Enzyme engineering is central to developing biocatalysts with improved activity and specificity, yet traditional approaches are often limited by the s...
Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems play a crucial role in diabetes care. Yet, they focus solely on blood glucose levels (BGL), neglect diet, ...
Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is a disease with limited tools for early screening and a poor prognosis. Symptoms typically appear late, an...
Antibody discovery remains constrained by resource-intensive experimental screening approaches that offer limited control over critical properties. He...
Citrus farming plays an essential role in agriculture; however, diseases like canker, greening, black spot, and melanose significantly reduce yield an...
Hypertension is a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, with changes in gut microbiota composition and function being closely associated with...
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a highly prevalent condition characterized by fat build-up in the liver and ranges...
Adults and children with cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) are at risk of experiencing lifelong complications such as hemorrhagic strokes, neuro...
Leveraging machine learning on electronic health records offers a promising method for early identification of individuals at risk for dementia and ne...
Predicting individual health trajectories based on risk scores can help formulate effective preventive strategies for diseases and their complications...
Chronological age is a cornerstone of medical decision-making but is limited because individuals age at different rates. We recently released an open-...
To assess the rate of retinal vascularisation derived from ultra-widefield (UWF) imaging-based retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) screening as predictor...
Parkinson’s disease (PD) exhibits a variety of symptoms, with approximately 25% of patients experiencing mild cognitive impairment and 45% developing ...
Hypertension continues to be a major challenge in developing countries like South Africa, as it significantly contributes to the cardiovascular diseas...
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) screening in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) faces challenges due to limited access to specialized care. Portable r...
Large language models (LLMs) enhanced with Graph Retrieval-Augmented Generation (GRAG) are promising for life-course epidemiology, which typically dep...
Large language models have gained significant public awareness since ChatGPT’s release in 2022. This study describes the perception of chatbot-assiste...
Despite growing excitement in deploying large language models (LLMs) for healthcare, most machine learning studies show success on the same few limite...
