OBJECTIVES: Unplanned pneumonia readmissions increase patient morbidity, mortality and healthcare costs. Among pneumonia patients, the middle-aged and elderly (≥45 years old) have a significantly higher risk of readmission compared with the young. Gi...
BACKGROUND: Identification of accelerated aging and its biomarkers can lead to more timely therapeutic interventions and decision-making. Therefore, we sought to predict aging-related slow gait, a known predictor of accelerated aging, and its determi...
Brain age has emerged as a powerful tool to understand neuroanatomical aging and its link to health outcomes like cognition. However, there remains a lack of studies investigating the rate of brain aging and its relationship to cognition. Furthermore...
Stroke is the second leading cause of death, accounting for 11% of deaths worldwide. Comparing diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) images is important for stroke diagnosis, but most studies have focused on lesion...
INTRODUCTION: In older patients, postoperative delirium (POD) is a major complication that can result in greater morbidity, longer hospital stays, and higher healthcare expenses. Accurate prediction models for POD can enhance patient outcomes by guid...
IMPORTANCE: Clinical artificial intelligence (AI) systems are susceptible to performance degradation due to data shifts, which can lead to erroneous predictions and potential patient harm. Proactively detecting and mitigating these shifts is crucial ...
BACKGROUND: Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) is a critical transitional stage between normal aging and Alzheimer's disease, and its early identification is essential for delaying disease progression.
Recent developments in artificial intelligence (AI) have introduced new technologies that can aid in detecting cognitive decline. This study developed a voice-based AI model that screens for cognitive decline using only a short conversational voice s...
INTRODUCTION: Technological advances and artificial intelligence now make it feasible to administer cognitive assessments on touch-screen devices. The aim of this study is to develop a Uyghur version of the NUCOG cognitive screening application and e...
Postmortem neuropathological examination, while the gold standard for diagnosing neurodegenerative diseases, often relies on limited regional sampling that may miss critical areas affected by Alzheimer's disease and related disorders. Ultra-high reso...
