AI-Driven Personalization of Dual Antiplatelet Therapy Duration Post-PCI: A Novel Approach Balancing Ischemic and Bleeding Risks

Precision-guided dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) duration post-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remains a clinical challenge. Current risk stratification methods lack personalization, underscoring the need for advanced predictive tools. We developed and validated an artificial intelligence (AI) framework (LightGBM, random forest [RF], logistic regression [LR]) to optimize DAPT duration us...

Enhanced machine learning and hybrid ensemble approaches for coronary heart disease prediction

Coronary heart disease (CHD) remains the leading cause of mortality worldwide, disproportionately affecting low- and middle-income countries where diagnostic resources are limited. Traditional statistical models often fail to deliver adequate predictive accuracy in complex, high-dimensional, and imbalanced health datasets. To develop and evaluate enhanced machine learning and hybrid ensemble model...

Case-Control Matching Erodes Feature Discriminability for AI-driven Sepsis Prediction in ICUs: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Sepsis remains a leading cause of intensive care unit (ICU) mortality worldwide, and early detection is essential for improving survival through timel...

Efficient Chest X-Ray Feature Extraction and Feature Fusion for Pneumonia Detection Using Lightweight Pretrained Deep Learning Models

Pneumonia is a respiratory condition characterized by inflammation of the alveolar sacs in the lungs, which disrupts normal oxygen exchange. This dise...

Joint associations of device-measured physical activity and sleep duration with incident major adverse cardiovascular events: prospective analysis of the UK Biobank

The interaction between physical activity and sleep with cardiovascular disease remains poorly understood, despite both being key risk factors. This s...

Large Language Model-Based Entity Extraction Reliably Classifies Pancreatic Cysts and Reveals Predictors of Malignancy: A Cross-Sectional and Retrospective Cohort Study

Pancreatic cystic lesions (PCLs) are often discovered incidentally on imaging and may progress to pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). PCLs have a...

Longitudinal Prediction of BMI using Explainable AI: Integrating Polygenic Scores, Maternal, Early-Life and Familial Factors

This study aimed to predict body mass index (BMI) trajectories from childhood to early adulthood using explainable artificial intelligence, integratin...

Not So Fast, I’m Serofast: Using Innovative Education Techniques to Drive Management of People with Syphilis

An increase in syphilis cases in the United States and the global shortage of Benzathine Penicillin G (BPG) calls for evidence-based optimization. Con...

Patterns of Suicidal Stress Disclosure on Social Media: Integrating Computational and Qualitative Approaches

The lack of understanding of how individuals communicate suicidal stress hinders global suicide intervention plans and practices. This study identifie...

Stochastic Chaos in Influenza Data – An Application of Topological Methods

Empirical methods of chaos theory have been applied to epidemiological data, uncovering evidence of chaos. In the current work, we apply, to the weekl...

Portability of an artificial intelligence model for self-harm detection across hospital settings

Adequate self-harm surveillance is a key part of suicide prevention efforts. Our prior work has demonstrated the efficacy of an artificial intelligenc...

A scoping review of the application of artificial intelligence for the analysis of adverse drug events in clinical research

The early detection of adverse drug events (ADEs) became a critical issue in clinical research after the thalidomide disaster in 1961, which resulted ...

Associations Between Meteorological Factors and Influenza A/B Incidence in Subtropical China: A Six-Year Surveillance Study with Deep Learning Modelling for Influenza Early Warning

Influenza burden in subtropical regions like southeastern China is shaped by meteorological factors-driven complex transmission patterns that differ f...

Development of a novel musculoskeletal hypothesis using sparse Group Factor Analysis: the ADVANCE cohort

Musculoskeletal conditions are a leading global cause of disability, yet the factors influencing long-term musculoskeletal health, particularly follow...

Development and Validation of VC-MAES and VC-SEPS: Deep Learning-Based Early Warning Systems for Hospitalized Patients

The timely detection of ward deterioration—including unplanned intensive care unit (ICU) transfer, cardiac arrest, death, and sepsis—remains an unmet ...

Complex pathways to ceftolozane-tazobactam resistance in clinical Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates: a genomic epidemiology study

We aimed to conduct a comprehensive genomic analysis of ceftolozane/tazobactam (C/T) resistance mechanisms in Pseudomonas aeruginosa by combining nove...

Predicting coronary artery abnormalities in Kawasaki disease: Model development and external validation

Kawasaki disease (KD) is an acute, pediatric vasculitis associated with coronary artery abnormality (CAA) development. Echocardiography at month 1 pos...

External Validation of a Machine Learning Model to Predict Postpartum Hemorrhage in a US Northeastern Healthcare System

Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is a major cause of maternal morbidity and mortality. Timely prediction may prevent adverse maternal outcomes, and efforts...

Achieving Inclusive Healthcare through Integrating Education and Research with AI and Personalized Curricula

Precision medicine promises significant health benefits but faces challenges such as complex data management and analytics, interdisciplinary collabor...

Incidence, Outcomes and Risk Factors of Cardiac Arrest Among Surgical Patients in the UK Biobank: A Population-Based Cohort Study
