UNLABELLED: To determine the potential economic, morbidity and mortality impact of improvements in reporting of vertebral fragility fractures (VFFs) following a complete audit cycle. Six percent interval increase in reporting of moderate/severe VFFs ...
BackgroundNeuroinflammation actively contributes to the pathophysiology of Alzheimer's disease (AD); however, the value of neuroinflammatory biomarkers for disease-staging or predicting disease progression remains unclear.ObjectiveTo investigate diag...
PURPOSE: The wedge effect (V-effect) is a common complication in intramedullary nailing surgery for intertrochanteric fractures and can significantly affect postoperative outcomes. The purpose of this study was to screen risk factors for the intraope...
Biological age (BA) and frailty represent two distinct health measures that offer valuable insights into the aging process. Comparing and analyzing blood-based biomarkers from the machine learning (ML) predictors of BA and frailty helps deepen our un...
Dual-task composed of gait or stepping tasks combined with cognitive tasks has been well-established as valuable tools for detecting neurocognitive disorders such as mild cognitive impairment and early-stage Alzheimer's disease. We previously develop...
The global increase in the older adult population highlights the need for effective frailty assessment, a condition linked to adverse health outcomes such as hospitalization and mortality. Existing frailty assessment tools, like the Fried phenotype a...
The increases in the older population, the prevalence of dementia, and the resulting social costs are burdensome to individuals, families, and the nation. This study examines whether the social robot PIO program intervention is effective for cognitiv...

Detecting Alzheimer's disease (AD) in its earliest stages, particularly during an onset of Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), remains challenging due to the overlap of initial symptoms with normal aging processes. Given that no cure exists and current ...
INTRODUCTION: The objective of this study was to employ artificial intelligence (AI) technology for the development of a model that can accurately forecast the outcome of emergency general surgery (EGS) in elderly patients. Additionally, an innovativ...
