A New Clinical Utility for Tubular Markers to Identify Kidney Responders to Saxagliptin Treatment in Adults With Diabetic Nephropathy.

Canadian journal of diabetes
OBJECTIVES: In recent clinical studies, saxagliptin exhibited nephroprotective potential by lowering albuminuria. In this study, we aimed to determine whether these kidney effects of saxagliptin were mediated by changes in markers of kidney tubular d...

Comparison of Acute and Chronic Surgical Complications Following Robot-Assisted, Laparoscopic, and Traditional Open Radical Prostatectomy Among Men in Taiwan.

JAMA network open
IMPORTANCE: Few studies have evaluated long-term surgical complications in patients with prostate cancer (PC) who receive open radical prostatectomy (ORP), laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LRP), or robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP).

A deep-learning method using computed tomography scout images for estimating patient body weight.

Scientific reports
Body weight is an indispensable parameter for determination of contrast medium dose, appropriate drug dosing, or management of radiation dose. However, we cannot always determine the accurate patient body weight at the time of computed tomography (CT...

Editorial: The National COVID Cohort Collaborative Consortium Combines Population Data with Machine Learning to Evaluate and Predict Risk Factors for the Severity of COVID-19.

Medical science monitor : international medical journal of experimental and clinical research
Infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) that causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) commonly presents with pneumonia. However, COVID-19 is now recognized to involve multiple organ systems with varying severity ...

Machine learning prediction of dropping out of outpatients with alcohol use disorders.

PloS one
BACKGROUND: Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a chronic disease with a higher recurrence rate than that of other mental illnesses. Moreover, it requires continuous outpatient treatment for the patient to maintain abstinence. However, with a low probabili...

Using the Super Learner algorithm to predict risk of 30-day readmission after bariatric surgery in the United States.

Surgery
BACKGROUND: Risk prediction models that estimate patient probabilities of adverse events are commonly deployed in bariatric surgery. The objective was to validate a machine learning (Super Learner) prediction model of 30-day readmission after bariatr...

Documentation of Shared Decisionmaking in the Emergency Department.

Annals of emergency medicine
STUDY OBJECTIVE: While patient-centered communication and shared decisionmaking are increasingly recognized as vital aspects of clinical practice, little is known about their characteristics in real-world emergency department (ED) settings. We constr...

S3Reg: Superfast Spherical Surface Registration Based on Deep Learning.

IEEE transactions on medical imaging
Cortical surface registration is an essential step and prerequisite for surface-based neuroimaging analysis. It aligns cortical surfaces across individuals and time points to establish cross-sectional and longitudinal cortical correspondences to faci...
