Maternal urinary paraben levels and offspring size at birth from a Chinese birth cohort.

Chemosphere
BACKGROUND: Parabens are suspected to impair fetal growth because of their endocrine disrupting effects. Epidemiological studies regarding the effects of prenatal exposure to parabens on birth outcomes are limited.

Explainable predictive models of short stature and exploration of related environmental growth factors: a case-control study.

BMC endocrine disorders
BACKGROUND: Short stature is a prevalent pediatric endocrine disorder for which early detection and prediction are pivotal for improving treatment outcomes. However, existing diagnostic criteria often lack the necessary sensitivity and specificity be...

Machine learning assisted noncontact neonatal anthropometry using FMCW radar.

Scientific reports
This study proposes a method for measuring the height and weight of a neonate conveniently, safely, and accurately by applying a convolutional neural network to frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) radar sensor data. Fifteen neonates, with pare...

Prediction of Adult Height by Machine Learning Technique.

The Journal of clinical endocrinology and metabolism
CONTEXT: Prediction of AH is frequently undertaken in the clinical setting. The commonly used methods are based on the assessment of skeletal maturation. Predictive algorithms generated by machine learning, which can already automatically drive cars ...

Machine learning-based prediction of response to growth hormone treatment in Turner syndrome: the LG Growth Study.

Journal of pediatric endocrinology & metabolism : JPEM
Background Growth hormone (GH) treatment has become a common practice in Turner syndrome (TS). However, there are only a few studies on the response to GH treatment in TS. The aim of this study is to predict the responsiveness to GH treatment and to ...

Correlation of Brain Neuropeptide (Nesfatin-1 and Orexin-A) Concentrations with Anthropometric and Biochemical Parameters in Malnourished Children.

Journal of clinical research in pediatric endocrinology
OBJECTIVE: Malnutrition continues to be a leading cause of stunted growth in many countries. This study aimed to investigate serum nesfatin-1 and orexin-A levels in underweight children and the potential correlations of these levels with anthropometr...

Neural network models - a novel tool for predicting the efficacy of growth hormone (GH) therapy in children with short stature.

Neuro endocrinology letters
INTRODUCTION: The leading method for prediction of growth hormone (GH) therapy effectiveness are multiple linear regression (MLR) models. Best of our knowledge, we are the first to apply artificial neural networks (ANN) to solve this problem. For ANN...
