Evaluation and analysis of risk factors for fractured vertebral recompression post-percutaneous kyphoplasty: a retrospective cohort study based on logistic regression analysis.

BMC musculoskeletal disorders
BACKGROUND: Vertebral recompression after percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) may lead to recurrent pain, deformity, and neurological impairment, compromising prognosis and quality of life.

Multiple Tumor-related autoantibodies test enhances CT-based deep learning performance in diagnosing lung cancer with diameters < 70 mm: a prospective study in China.

BMC pulmonary medicine
BACKGROUND: Deep learning (DL) demonstrates high sensitivity but low specificity in lung cancer (LC) detection during CT screening, and the seven Tumor-associated antigens autoantibodies (7-TAAbs), known for its high specificity in LC, was employed t...

Developing and validating machine learning models to predict next-day extubation.

Scientific reports
Criteria to identify patients who are ready to be liberated from mechanical ventilation (MV) are imprecise, often resulting in prolonged MV or reintubation, both of which are associated with adverse outcomes. Daily protocol-driven assessment of the n...

COVID-19 risk stratification among older adults: a machine learning approach to identify personal and health-related risk factors.

BMC public health
BACKGROUND: The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the need to understand factors influencing individuals' risk perceptions and health behaviors. This study aimed to explore the roles of individuals' knowledge, perception, and health-related issues in det...

The application and predictive value of the weight-adjusted-waist index in BC prevalence assessment: a comprehensive statistical and machine learning analysis using NHANES data.

BMC cancer
BACKGROUND: Obesity is a known risk factor for breast cancer (BC), but conventional metrics such as body mass index (BMI) may insufficiently capture central adiposity. The weight-adjusted waist index (WWI) has emerged as a potentially superior anthro...

Machine learning-based high-benefit approach versus traditional high-risk approach in statin therapy: the Shizuoka Kokuho database study.

Scientific reports
Statins are widely prescribed for the primary prevention of cardiovascular diseases, yet individual responses vary, necessitating personalized treatment strategies. Conventional approaches prioritize treating high-risk patients, but advancements in m...

An artificial intelligence model to predict mortality among hemodialysis patients: A retrospective validated cohort study.

Scientific reports
Hemodialysis stands as the most prevalent renal replacement therapy globally. Accurately identifying mortality among hemodialysis patients is paramount importance, as it enables the formulation of tailored interventions and facilitates timely managem...

Diagnosis of unilateral vocal fold paralysis using auto-diagnostic deep learning model.

Scientific reports
Unilateral vocal fold paralysis (UVFP) is a condition characterized by impaired vocal fold mobility, typically diagnosed using laryngeal videoendoscopy. While deep learning (DL) models using static images have been explored for UVFP detection, they o...

A hybrid filtering and deep learning approach for early Alzheimer's disease identification.

Scientific reports
Alzheimer's disease is a progressive neurological disorder that profoundly affects cognitive functions and daily activities. Rapid and precise identification is essential for effective intervention and improved patient outcomes. This research introdu...

Evaluating the efficacy of using large language models in preoperative prediction of microvascular invasion in HCC: a multicenter study.

Scientific reports
Primary liver cancer is the sixth most commonly diagnosed cancer globally and the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common type of primary liver cancer, and microvascular invasion (MVI) is a sign...
