Macrolide combination therapy for patients hospitalised with community-acquired pneumonia? An individualised approach supported by machine learning.

The European respiratory journal
BACKGROUND: The role of macrolide/β-lactam combination therapy in community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) of moderate severity is a matter of debate. Macrolides expand the coverage to atypical pathogens and attenuate pulmonary inflammation, but have been ...

Deep Learning for Fall Risk Assessment With Inertial Sensors: Utilizing Domain Knowledge in Spatio-Temporal Gait Parameters.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
Fall risk assessment is essential to predict and prevent falls in geriatric populations, especially patients with life-long conditions like neurological disorders. Inertial sensor-based pervasive gait analysis systems have become viable means to faci...

Exploring the perceptions of people with dementia about the social robot PARO in a hospital setting.

Dementia (London, England)
New technology, such as social robots, opens up new opportunities in hospital settings. PARO, a robotic pet seal, was designed to provide emotional and social support for older people with dementia. We applied video-ethnographic methods, including co...

Evaluating the reliability of neurocognitive biomarkers of neurodegenerative diseases across countries: A machine learning approach.

NeuroImage
Accurate early diagnosis of neurodegenerative diseases represents a growing challenge for current clinical practice. Promisingly, current tools can be complemented by computational decision-support methods to objectively analyze multidimensional meas...

Artificial intelligence approaches to predicting and detecting cognitive decline in older adults: A conceptual review.

Psychiatry research
Preserving cognition and mental capacity is critical to aging with autonomy. Early detection of pathological cognitive decline facilitates the greatest impact of restorative or preventative treatments. Artificial Intelligence (AI) in healthcare is th...

Ethics of socially assistive robots in aged-care settings: a socio-historical contextualisation.

Journal of medical ethics
Different embodiments of technology permeate all layers of public and private domains in society. In the public domain of aged care, attention is increasingly focused on the use of socially assistive robots (SARs) supporting caregivers and older adul...

Detecting glaucoma based on spectral domain optical coherence tomography imaging of peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer: a comparison study between hand-crafted features and deep learning model.

Graefe's archive for clinical and experimental ophthalmology = Albrecht von Graefes Archiv fur klinische und experimentelle Ophthalmologie
PURPOSE: To develop a deep learning (DL) model for automated detection of glaucoma and to compare diagnostic capability against hand-craft features (HCFs) based on spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) peripapillary retinal nerve fibe...

Epidemiological pathology of Aβ deposition in the ageing brain in CFAS: addition of multiple Aβ-derived measures does not improve dementia assessment using logistic regression and machine learning approaches.

Acta neuropathologica communications
Aβ-amyloid deposition is a key feature of Alzheimer's disease, but Consortium to Establish a Registry for Alzheimer's Disease (CERAD) assessment, based on neuritic plaque density, shows a limited relationships to dementia. Thal phase is based on a ne...
