Interpreting patient-Specific risk prediction using contextual decomposition of BiLSTMs: application to children with asthma.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
BACKGROUND: Predictive modeling with longitudinal electronic health record (EHR) data offers great promise for accelerating personalized medicine and better informs clinical decision-making. Recently, deep learning models have achieved state-of-the-a...

A comparative study of machine learning classifiers for risk prediction of asthma disease.

Photodiagnosis and photodynamic therapy
Asthma is a chronic disease characterized by wheezing, chest tightening and difficulty in breathing due to inflammation of lung airways. Early risk prediction of asthma is crucial for proper and effective management. This study presents the use of ma...

Prodromal clinical, demographic, and socio-ecological correlates of asthma in adults: a 10-year statewide big data multi-domain analysis.

The Journal of asthma : official journal of the Association for the Care of Asthma
To identify prodromal correlates of asthma as compared to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and allied-conditions (COPDAC) using a multi domain analysis of socio-ecological, clinical, and demographic domains. This is a retrospective case-risk-co...

Predicting asthma attacks in primary care: protocol for developing a machine learning-based prediction model.

BMJ open
INTRODUCTION: Asthma is a long-term condition with rapid onset worsening of symptoms ('attacks') which can be unpredictable and may prove fatal. Models predicting asthma attacks require high sensitivity to minimise mortality risk, and high specificit...

Using machine learning to examine the relationship between asthma and absenteeism.

Environmental monitoring and assessment
In this study, we found that machine learning was able to effectively estimate student learning outcomes geo-spatially across all the campuses in a large, urban, independent school district. The machine learning showed that key factors in estimating ...

Diagnostic value of spirometry vs impulse oscillometry: A comparative study in children with sickle cell disease.

Pediatric pulmonology
BACKGROUND: Spirometry is conventionally used to diagnose airway diseases in children with sickle cell disease (C-SCD). However, spirometry is difficult for younger children to perform, is effort dependent, and it provides limited information on resp...

Deep learning facilitates the diagnosis of adult asthma.

Allergology international : official journal of the Japanese Society of Allergology
BACKGROUND: We explored whether the use of deep learning to model combinations of symptom-physical signs and objective tests, such as lung function tests and the bronchial challenge test, would improve model performance in predicting the initial diag...

An ensemble learning method for asthma control level detection with leveraging medical knowledge-based classifier and supervised learning.

Journal of medical systems
Approximately 300 million people are afflicted with asthma around the world, with the estimated death rate of 250,000 cases, indicating the significance of this disease. If not treated, it can turn into a serious public health problem. The best metho...

Novel pediatric-automated respiratory score using physiologic data and machine learning in asthma.

Pediatric pulmonology
OBJECTIVES: Manual clinical scoring systems are the current standard used for acute asthma clinical care pathways. No automated system exists that assesses disease severity, time course, and treatment impact in pediatric acute severe asthma exacerbat...
