BACKGROUND: Thyroid nodules are frequent in clinical settings, and their diagnosis in adults is growing, with some persons experiencing symptoms. Ultrasound-guided thermal ablation can shrink nodules and alleviate discomfort. Because the degree and r...
BACKGROUND: Dependent older people or those losing their autonomy are at risk of emergency hospitalization. Digital systems that monitor health remotely could be useful in reducing these visits by detecting worsening health conditions earlier. Howeve...

BACKGROUND: In aortic valve stenosis (AS), measurement of stroke volume index (SVi) by the 2D Doppler- technique is required to calculate the aortic valve area (AVA) and determine flow status but is prone to systematic errors.
OBJECTIVE: Compare the image quality of image reconstructed using deep learning-based image reconstruction (DLIR) and iterative reconstruction algorithms for head and neck dual-energy CT angiography (DECTA).
This study investigated and validated all-cause in-hospital death prediction models for hospitalized pneumonia patients based on large-scale clinical data, including diagnoses, medication prescriptions, and laboratory test codes. Feature selection wa...
This study aimed to develop models for predicting the 30-day mortality of sepsis-associated delirium (SAD) by multiple machine learning (ML) algorithms. On the whole, a cohort of 3,197 SAD patients were collected from the Medical Information Mart for...

Measuring medication discontinuation in claims data primarily relies on the gaps between prescription fills, but such definitions are rarely validated. This study aimed to establish a natural language processing (NLP)-based validation framework to ev...
BACKGROUND: Little is known about acute kidney injury (AKI) and acute kidney disease (AKD) in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and COPD mortality based on the acute/subacute renal injury. This study develops machine learning...
OBJECTIVES: The 2009 Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation without race correction factor is frequently used for an estimate of glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and to support a single-sample GFR regime. This study exa...
Sarcopenia and body composition metrics are strongly associated with patient outcomes. In this study, we developed and validated a flexible, open-access pipeline integrating available deep learning-based segmentation models with pre- and postprocessi...
