Prevention and Management of Complications During Robotic-assisted Laparoscopic Radical Prostatectomy Following Comprehensive Planning: A Large Series Involving a Single Surgeon.

Anticancer research
AIM: To report a series of 1,000 patients treated by a single surgeon using robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP) and to show how to prevent and manage complications of the procedure.

Exploiting machine learning for predicting skeletal-related events in cancer patients with bone metastases.

Oncotarget
The aim of the bone metastases (BM) treatment is to prevent the occurrence of skeletal-related events (SREs). In clinical, physicians could only predict the occurrence of SREs by subjective experience. Machine learning (ML) could be used as predictiv...

Unsupervised learning technique identifies bronchiectasis phenotypes with distinct clinical characteristics.

The international journal of tuberculosis and lung disease : the official journal of the International Union against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease
BACKGROUND: Unsupervised learning technique allows researchers to identify different phenotypes of diseases with complex manifestations.

Objective prediction of pharyngeal swallow dysfunction in dysphagia through artificial neural network modeling.

Neurogastroenterology and motility
BACKGROUND: Pharyngeal pressure-flow analysis (PFA) of high resolution impedance-manometry (HRIM) with calculation of the swallow risk index (SRI) can quantify swallow dysfunction predisposing to aspiration. We explored the potential use of artificia...

Comparison of Bilateral Axillo-Breast Approach Robotic Thyroidectomy with Open Thyroidectomy for Graves' Disease.

World journal of surgery
BACKGROUND: There is an ongoing debate about whether robotic thyroidectomy (RT) is appropriate for Graves' disease. The aim of this study was to compare the safety of bilateral axillo-breast approach (BABA) RT with that of open thyroidectomy (OT) in ...

Conflicting results of robot-assisted versus usual gait training during postacute rehabilitation of stroke patients: a randomized clinical trial.

International journal of rehabilitation research. Internationale Zeitschrift fur Rehabilitationsforschung. Revue internationale de recherches de readaptation
Robot gait training has the potential to increase the effectiveness of walking therapy. Clinical outcomes after robotic training are often not superior to conventional therapy. We evaluated the effectiveness of a robot training compared with a usual ...

Improving the knowledge base in older people's care.

Nursing older people
The UK has a rapidly ageing population, and the number of people aged over 75 is projected to double in the next 30 years. In November 2014, King's College London introduced the Older Person's Nurse Fellowship, a pioneering programme designed to give...
