Gait Characteristics Associated with Walking Speed in Postoperative Patients with Adult Spinal Deformity Extracted by Machine Learning.

Annals of biomedical engineering
PURPOSE: Patients with adult spinal deformity (ASD) are unable to walk faster even after spinal fixation. Gait rehabilitation that focuses on movements associated with reduced speed may help improve gait function. This study aimed to identify the gai...

A correlational study of plasma galectin-3 as a potential predictive marker of postoperative delirium in patients with acute aortic dissection.

Scientific reports
This study aimed to demonstrate whether plasma galectin-3 could predict the development of postoperative delirium (POD) in patients with acute aortic dissection (AAD). Prospective, observational study. Cardiac surgery intensive care unit. Consecutive...

Promethazine for nausea and vomiting prevention after gynaecological laparoscopic surgery: A randomized controlled trial.

Scientific reports
Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) represent significant concerns for patients undergoing surgical procedures, as these symptoms greatly impact their postoperative experience. Among female patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery, the incidence...

Physiological comparison of noninvasive ventilation and high-flow nasal oxygen on inspiratory efforts and tidal volumes after extubation: a randomized crossover trial.

Critical care (London, England)
BACKGROUND: Extubation failure leading to reintubation is associated with high mortality. In patients at high-risk of extubation failure, clinical practice guidelines recommend prophylactic non-invasive ventilation (NIV) over high-flow nasal oxygen (...

The impact of a simple positioning aid device on the diagnostic performance of thyroid cancer in CT scans: a randomized controlled trial.

Cancer imaging : the official publication of the International Cancer Imaging Society
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effectiveness of a simple positioning aid device in neck CT scans for the diagnosis of thyroid cancer, with a focus on its influence on image quality and diagnostic accuracy.

Enhancing clinical decision-making in closed pelvic fractures with machine learning models.

Biomolecules & biomedicine
Closed pelvic fractures can lead to severe complications, including hemodynamic instability (HI) and mortality. Accurate prediction of these risks is crucial for effective clinical management. This study aimed to utilize various machine learning (ML)...

Developing the DigIQ: A measure of digital competence.

PloS one
Digital competence reflects the skills and knowledge needed to thrive in the digital world. Despite the criticality of this concept, the field lacks a robust and valid measure of digital competence that is suitable across the life span. Addressing th...

Radiomic analysis based on machine learning of multi-sequences MR to assess early treatment response in locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Science progress
ObjectiveThe prediction of early response in locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (LA-NPC) after concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) is important for determining the need for timely consolidation therapy. We developed a radiomic analysis of mult...

A deep learning model combining circulating tumor cells and radiological features in the multi-classification of mediastinal lesions in comparison with thoracic surgeons: a large-scale retrospective study.

BMC medicine
BACKGROUND: CT images and circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are indispensable for diagnosing the mediastinal lesions by providing radiological and intra-tumoral information. This study aimed to develop and validate a deep multimodal fusion network (DMFN...
