Discriminant analysis and interpretation of nuclear chromatin distribution and coarseness using gray-level co-occurrence matrix features for lobular endocervical glandular hyperplasia.

Diagnostic cytopathology
BACKGROUND: Lobular endocervical glandular hyperplasia (LEGH) is a disease considered to be the origin of tumorigenesis of minimal deviation adenocarcinoma, which has characteristic expression in the gastric pyloric mucosa. It is difficult to diagnos...

Automatic snoring sounds detection from sleep sounds based on deep learning.

Physical and engineering sciences in medicine
Snoring is a typical characteristic of obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) and can be used for its diagnosis. The purpose of this paper is to develop an automatic snoring detection algorithm for classifying snore and non-snore sound seg...

A new lower limb portable exoskeleton for gait assistance in neurological patients: a proof of concept study.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Few portable exoskeletons following the assist-as-needed concept have been developed for patients with neurological disorders. Thus, the main objectives of this proof-of-concept study were 1) to explore the safety and feasibility of an ex...

Reaching exercise for chronic paretic upper extremity after stroke using a novel rehabilitation robot with arm-weight support and concomitant electrical stimulation and vibration: before-and-after feasibility trial.

Biomedical engineering online
BACKGROUND: Our group developed a rehabilitation robot to assist with repetitive, active reaching movement of a paretic upper extremity. The robot is equipped with a servo motor-controlled arm-weight support and works in conjunction with neuromuscula...

Factors and predictors of length of stay in offenders diagnosed with schizophrenia - a machine-learning-based approach.

BMC psychiatry
BACKGROUND: Prolonged forensic psychiatric hospitalizations have raised ethical, economic, and clinical concerns. Due to the confounded nature of factors affecting length of stay of psychiatric offender patients, prior research has called for the app...

Diagnosis of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) With Structured Latent Multi-View Representation Learning.

IEEE transactions on medical imaging
Recently, the outbreak of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has spread rapidly across the world. Due to the large number of infected patients and heavy labor for doctors, computer-aided diagnosis with machine learning algorithm is urgently needed, ...

Prediction of chronological and biological age from laboratory data.

Aging
Aging has pronounced effects on blood laboratory biomarkers used in the clinic. Prior studies have largely investigated one biomarker or population at a time, limiting a comprehensive view of biomarker variation and aging across different populations...

Deep Convolutional Neural Networks-Based Automatic Breast Segmentation and Mass Detection in DCE-MRI.

Computational and mathematical methods in medicine
Breast segmentation and mass detection in medical images are important for diagnosis and treatment follow-up. Automation of these challenging tasks can assist radiologists by reducing the high manual workload of breast cancer analysis. In this paper,...

A novel vision-based real-time method for evaluating postural risk factors associated with musculoskeletal disorders.

Applied ergonomics
Real-time risk assessment for work-related musculoskeletal disorders (MSD) has been a challenging research problem. Previous methods such as using depth cameras suffered from limited visual range and wearable sensors could cause intrusiveness to the ...

Using artificial neural networks to predict impingement and dislocation in total hip arthroplasty.

Computer methods in biomechanics and biomedical engineering
Dislocation after total hip arthroplasty (THA) remains a major issue and an important post-surgical complication. Impingement and subsequent dislocation are influenced by the design (head size) and position (anteversion and abduction angles) of the a...
