Interpretable machine learning models to predict decline in intrinsic capacity among older adults in China: a prospective cohort study.

Maturitas
BACKGROUND: Monitoring intrinsic capacity and implementing appropriate interventions can support healthy aging. There are, though, few tools available for predicting decline in intrinsic capacity among older adults. This study aimed to develop and va...

Understanding Parkinson's: The microbiome and machine learning approach.

Maturitas
OBJECTIVE: Given that Parkinson's disease is a progressive disorder, with symptoms that worsen over time, our goal is to enhance the diagnosis of Parkinson's disease by utilizing machine learning techniques and microbiome analysis. The primary object...

Insulin resistance and adrenal incidentalomas: A bidirectional relationship.

Maturitas
An adrenal incidentaloma (AI) is an adrenal mass incidentally found via a radiological modality, independent of an endocrinological investigation. In this review, we aimed to investigate the possible reasons behind the increased frequency in AI detec...

Use of a robotic walking aid in rehabilitation to reduce fear of falling is feasible and acceptable from the end user's perspective: A randomised comparative study.

Maturitas
Objectives To determine the acceptability and feasibility of the use of a robotic walking aid to support the work of physiotherapists in reducing fear of falling in the rehabilitation of elderly patients with 'psychomotor disadaptation' (the most sev...

Effect of a robotic seal on the motor activity and sleep patterns of older people with dementia, as measured by wearable technology: A cluster-randomised controlled trial.

Maturitas
OBJECTIVES: The robotic seal, PARO, has been used as an alternative to animal-assisted therapies with residents with dementia in long-term care, yet understanding of its efficacy is limited by a paucity of research. We explored the effects of PARO on...

The effect of genistein on glucose control and insulin sensitivity in postmenopausal women: A meta-analysis.

Maturitas
Preclinical studies have revealed the beneficial effects of genistein in pancreatic β-cell functions. The results of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in assessing the effects of genistein on glucose metabolism are inconsistent, however. The aim of...
