Accuracy of glomerular filtration rate estimationequations in patients with hematopathy.

Renal dysfunction is a common side-effect of chemotherapeuticagents in patients with hematopathy. Although broadly used, glomerularfiltration rate (GFR) estimation equations were not fully validatedin this special population. Thus, this study was designed to furtherassess the accuracy of various GFR equations, including the newly2012 CKD-EPI equations. Referring to Tc-DTPA clearance method, three ...

Towards multilevel mental stress assessment using SVM with ECOC: an EEG approach.

Mental stress has been identified as one of the major contributing factors that leads to various diseases such as heart attack, depression, and stroke. To avoid this, stress quantification is important for clinical intervention and disease prevention. This study aims to investigate the feasibility of exploiting electroencephalography (EEG) signals to discriminate between different stress levels. W...
