AIMS: Although there are various model-based approaches to individualized vancomycin (VCM) administration, few have been reported for adult patients with periprosthetic joint infection (PJI). This work attempted to develop a machine learning (ML)-bas...
BACKGROUND: Contrast-enhanced CT scans provide a means to detect unsuspected colorectal cancer. However, colorectal cancers in contrast-enhanced CT without bowel preparation may elude detection by radiologists. We aimed to develop a deep learning (DL...

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that can cause a significant impairment in physical and cognitive functions. Gait disturbances are also reported as a symptom of AD. Previous works have used Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs...
Changing a window width (WW) alters appearance of noise and contrast of CT images. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of adjusted WW for deep learning reconstruction (DLR) in detecting hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs) on CT with DLR....
BACKGROUND: New-onset atrial fibrillation (NOAF) occurs in 5% to 15% of patients who undergo transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Cardiac imaging has been underutilized to predict NOAF following TAVR.
This study addresses the challenge of accurately diagnosing sepsis subtypes in elderly patients, particularly distinguishing between Escherichia coli (E. coli) and non-E. coli infections. Utilizing machine learning, we conducted a retrospective analy...
INTRODUCTION: Oral anticoagulation (OAC) is key in atrial fibrillation (AF) thromboprophylaxis, but Spain lacks substantial real-world evidence. We aimed to analyze the prevalence, clinical characteristics, and treatment patterns among patients with ...
Our study explores whether lifelong learning is associated with the subjective wellbeing among the elderly in Singapore. Through a primary survey of 300 individuals aged 65 and above, we develop a novel index to capture three different aspects of sub...
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the feasibility and accuracy of predicting locoregional recurrence (LR) in elderly patients with esophageal squamous cell cancer (ESCC) who underwent radical radiotherapy using a pairwise machine learning algorithm.
BACKGROUND: Pneumonia is one of the most common complications after spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH), i.e., stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP). Timely identification of targeted patients is beneficial to reduce poor prognosis. So far, there...
