Computed tomography machine learning classifier correlates with mortality in interstitial lung disease.

Respiratory investigation
BACKGROUND: A machine learning classifier system, Fibresolve, was designed and validated as an adjunct to non-invasive diagnosis in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). The system uses a deep learning algorithm to analyze chest computed tomography (C...

Deep learning-based reconstruction of chest ultra-high-resolution computed tomography and quantitative evaluations of smaller airways.

Respiratory investigation
The full-iterative model reconstruction generates ultra-high-resolution computed tomography (U-HRCT) images comprising a 1024 × 1024 matrix and 0.25 mm thickness while suppressing image noises, allowing evaluating small airways 1-2 mm in diameter. Ho...

Prediction of the duration needed to achieve culture negativity in patients with active pulmonary tuberculosis using convolutional neural networks and chest radiography.

Respiratory investigation
BACKGROUND: We aimed to predict the duration needed to achieve culture negativity in patients with active pulmonary tuberculosis using convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and chest radiography.

Reductions in pulmonary function detected in patients with lymphangioleiomyomatosis: An analysis of the Japanese National Research Project on Intractable Diseases database.

Respiratory investigation
BACKGROUND: In lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM), predicting lung disease progression is essential for treatment planning. However, no previous Japanese studies have attempted to predict the reductions in pulmonary function that occur in LAM patients.

Efficacy and safety of inhaled N-acetylcysteine in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: A prospective, single-arm study.

Respiratory investigation
BACKGROUND: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive lung disease with few treatment options. The efficacy of N-acetylcysteine in patients with IPF remains controversial. The aim of this research was to investigate the efficacy of inhaled...
