Pooled analysis of stereotactic ablative radiotherapy for primary renal cell carcinoma: A report from the International Radiosurgery Oncology Consortium for Kidney (IROCK).
Cancer
Dec 20, 2017
BACKGROUND: Stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) is an emerging therapy for primary renal cell carcinoma. The authors assessed safety, efficacy, and survival in a multi-institutional setting. Outcomes between single-fraction and multifraction SA...
A pilot study exploring staff acceptability of a socially assistive robot in a residential care facility that accommodates people under 65 years old.
International psychogeriatrics
Dec 4, 2017
ABSTRACTSocially assistive robots have successfully been trialed in residential care facilities (RCFs) for older adults. These robots may have potential for younger adults (i.e. under 65 years old) who also live in RCFs. However, it is important to i...
Use of a Robotic Seal as a Therapeutic Tool to Improve Dementia Symptoms: A Cluster-Randomized Controlled Trial.
Journal of the American Medical Directors Association
Aug 2, 2017
OBJECTIVES: To test the effects of individual, nonfacilitated sessions with PARO (version 9), when compared against a look-alike plush toy and usual care, on the emotional and behavioral symptoms of dementia for people living in long-term care facili...
Collective mutual information maximization to unify passive and positive approaches for improving interpretation and generalization.
Neural networks : the official journal of the International Neural Network Society
Mar 16, 2017
The present paper aims to propose a simple method to realize mutual information maximization for better interpretation and generalization. To train neural networks and obtain better performance, neurons should impartially consider as many input patte...
Radiomic features for prostate cancer detection on MRI differ between the transition and peripheral zones: Preliminary findings from a multi-institutional study.
Journal of magnetic resonance imaging : JMRI
Dec 19, 2016
PURPOSE: To evaluate in a multi-institutional study whether radiomic features useful for prostate cancer (PCa) detection from 3 Tesla (T) multi-parametric MRI (mpMRI) in the transition zone (TZ) differ from those in the peripheral zone (PZ).

Use of a Novel Nonparametric Version of DEPTH to Identify Genomic Regions Associated with Prostate Cancer Risk.
Cancer epidemiology, biomarkers & prevention : a publication of the American Association for Cancer Research, cosponsored by the American Society of Preventive Oncology
Aug 18, 2016
BACKGROUND: We have developed a genome-wide association study analysis method called DEPTH (DEPendency of association on the number of Top Hits) to identify genomic regions potentially associated with disease by considering overlapping groups of cont...
Development of Health Parameter Model for Risk Prediction of CVD Using SVM.
Computational and mathematical methods in medicine
Aug 9, 2016
Current methods of cardiovascular risk assessment are performed using health factors which are often based on the Framingham study. However, these methods have significant limitations due to their poor sensitivity and specificity. We have compared th...

Early Australian experience in robotic sleeve gastrectomy: a single site series.
ANZ journal of surgery
Apr 15, 2016
BACKGROUND: The use of robotic platforms in bariatric surgery has recently gained relevance. With an increased use of this technology come concerns regarding learning curve effects during the initial implementation phase. The sleeve gastrectomy thoug...
Effect of an interactive therapeutic robotic animal on engagement, mood states, agitation and psychotropic drug use in people with dementia: a cluster-randomised controlled trial protocol.
BMJ open
Aug 12, 2015
INTRODUCTION: Apathy, agitated behaviours, loneliness and depression are common consequences of dementia. This trial aims to evaluate the effect of a robotic animal on behavioural and psychological symptoms of dementia in people with dementia living ...
Driver's behavioural changes with new intelligent transport system interventions at railway level crossings--A driving simulator study.
Accident; analysis and prevention
May 6, 2015
Improving safety at railway level crossings is an important issue for the Australian transport system. Governments, the rail industry and road organisations have tried a variety of countermeasures for many years to improve railway level crossing safe...
