Detecting Large Vessel Occlusion at Multiphase CT Angiography by Using a Deep Convolutional Neural Network.

Radiology
Background Large vessel occlusion (LVO) stroke is one of the most time-sensitive diagnoses in medicine and requires emergent endovascular therapy to reduce morbidity and mortality. Leveraging recent advances in deep learning may facilitate rapid dete...

Machine learning prediction of the adverse outcome for nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage patients.

Annals of clinical and translational neurology
OBJECTIVE: Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is often devastating with increased early mortality, particularly in those with presumed delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI). The ability to accurately predict survival for SAH patients during the hospital course ...

Claims-Based Algorithms for Identifying Patients With Pulmonary Hypertension: A Comparison of Decision Rules and Machine-Learning Approaches.

Journal of the American Heart Association
Background Real-world healthcare data are an important resource for epidemiologic research. However, accurate identification of patient cohorts-a crucial first step underpinning the validity of research results-remains a challenge. We developed and e...

Kinematic parameters obtained with the ArmeoSpring for upper-limb assessment after stroke: a reliability and learning effect study for guiding parameter use.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: After stroke, kinematic measures obtained with non-robotic and robotic devices are highly recommended to precisely quantify the sensorimotor impairments of the upper-extremity and select the most relevant therapeutic strategies. Although ...

Predicting clinically significant motor function improvement after contemporary task-oriented interventions using machine learning approaches.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Accurate prediction of motor recovery after stroke is critical for treatment decisions and planning. Machine learning has been proposed to be a promising technique for outcome prediction because of its high accuracy and ability to process...

Machine Learning-Based Differentiation of Nontuberculous Mycobacteria Lung Disease and Pulmonary Tuberculosis Using CT Images.

BioMed research international
An increasing number of patients infected with nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are observed worldwide. However, it is challenging to identify NTM lung diseases from pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) due to considerable overlap in classic manifestations ...

Effects on sleep from group activity with a robotic seal for nursing home residents with dementia: a cluster randomized controlled trial.

International psychogeriatrics
OBJECTIVES: Sleep disturbances are common in people with dementia and increase with the severity of the disease. Sleep disturbances are complex and caused by several factors and are difficult to treat. There is a need for more robust and systematic s...

Development and Validation of Machine Learning-Based Prediction for Dependence in the Activities of Daily Living after Stroke Inpatient Rehabilitation: A Decision-Tree Analysis.

Journal of stroke and cerebrovascular diseases : the official journal of National Stroke Association
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Accurate prediction using simple and changeable variables is clinically meaningful because some known-predictors, such as stroke severity and patients age cannot be modified with rehabilitative treatment. There are limited cli...

[Assistive robots for nursing care : Available products and research fields].

Zeitschrift fur Gerontologie und Geriatrie
In the media more and more can be read about "care robots" as a possible solution for the current lack of qualified care staff but often without differentiating this term any further. This often leads to the assumption that robots are already able to...

Multi-view radiomics and dosiomics analysis with machine learning for predicting acute-phase weight loss in lung cancer patients treated with radiotherapy.

Physics in medicine and biology
We propose a multi-view data analysis approach using radiomics and dosiomics (R&D) texture features for predicting acute-phase weight loss (WL) in lung cancer radiotherapy. Baseline weight of 388 patients who underwent intensity modulated radiation t...
