Educational Program Using Robots for Preventing Cognitive Decline of Elderly Persons.

Studies in health technology and informatics
An expected surge of dementia patients in Japan indicates a pressing need to establish countermeasures. As described herein, by developing an educational program for elderly people using robots, we performed a demonstration experiment. Results reveal...

Developing a Rule-Based Expert System to Infer Customized Care Plans for Long Term Care Patients.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Systems of long-term care are needed in aging society to meet the needs of older people. In rapidly increasing demand for long-term care, how to ensure the quality of long-term care is an important issue. Therefore, we designed a rule-based expert sy...

Predicting outcomes after trauma: Prognostic model development based on admission features through machine learning.

Medicine
In an overcrowded emergency department (ED), trauma surgeons and emergency physicians need an accurate prognostic predictor for critical decision-making involving patients with severe trauma. We aimed to develope a machine learning-based early progno...

Zhonghua yu fang yi xue za zhi [Chinese journal of preventive medicine]
To establish vitamin D classification models for Chinese elderly using machine learning techniques. Based on the datasets of 2010-2012 Chinese nutrition and health surveillance, the basic information and physical exercise of the subjects were colle...

Effects of robot (SUBAR)-assisted gait training in patients with chronic stroke: Randomized controlled trial.

Medicine
BACKGROUND: SUBAR is a new ground walking exoskeletal robot. The objective of this study is to investigate SUBAR-assisted gait training's effects in patients with chronic stroke.

Efficacy and safety of carboplatin with nab-paclitaxel versus docetaxel in older patients with squamous non-small-cell lung cancer (CAPITAL): a randomised, multicentre, open-label, phase 3 trial.

The lancet. Healthy longevity
BACKGROUND: In Japan, docetaxel, a cytotoxic monotherapy, is the standard drug administered to older patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Carboplatin plus nab-paclitaxel has shown a high objective response rate in patients with ...

Validation of an Artificial Intelligence Algorithm for Diagnostic Prediction of Coronary Disease: Comparison with a Traditional Statistical Model.

Arquivos brasileiros de cardiologia
BACKGROUND: Multivariate prognostic analysis has been traditionally performed by regression models. However, many algorithms capable of translating an infinity of patterns into probabilities have emerged. The comparative accuracy of artificial intell...

[A Case of Robot Assisted Low Anterior Resection for a Patient with Persistent Descending Mesocolon].

Gan to kagaku ryoho. Cancer & chemotherapy
Persistent descending mesocolon(PDM)is caused by absence of fusion of the descending colon to the retroperitoneum. A 67-year-old man with bloody stools was diagnosed with rectal cancer on colonoscopy. A computed tomography showed a medial displacemen...

Electrocardiography-Based Artificial Intelligence Algorithm Aids in Prediction of Long-term Mortality After Cardiac Surgery.

Mayo Clinic proceedings
OBJECTIVE: To assess whether an electrocardiography-based artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm developed to detect severe ventricular dysfunction (left ventricular ejection fraction [LVEF] of 35% or below) independently predicts long-term mortality...

Living Longer Better.

Plastic and reconstructive surgery
Aging is a universal feature of life and a complex process at all levels from the biological to the societal. What constitutes older age is subjective and flexible, and how one defines older age is influenced by everchanging individual, generational,...
