Assessment of an Exhaled Breath Test Using High-Pressure Photon Ionization Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry to Detect Lung Cancer.

JAMA network open
IMPORTANCE: Exhaled breath is an attractive option for cancer detection. A sensitive and reliable breath test has the potential to greatly facilitate diagnoses and therapeutic monitoring of lung cancer.

Recent Advancements and Future Prospects on E-Nose Sensors Technology and Machine Learning Approaches for Non-Invasive Diabetes Diagnosis: A Review.

IEEE reviews in biomedical engineering
Diabetes mellitus, commonly measured through an invasive process which although is accurate, has manifold drawbacks especially when multiple reading are required at regular intervals. Accordingly, there is a need to develop a dependable non-invasive ...

Breath biopsy of breast cancer using sensor array signals and machine learning analysis.

Scientific reports
Breast cancer causes metabolic alteration, and volatile metabolites in the breath of patients may be used to diagnose breast cancer. The objective of this study was to develop a new breath test for breast cancer by analyzing volatile metabolites in t...

A comparison of regularized logistic regression and random forest machine learning models for daytime diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea.

Medical & biological engineering & computing
A major challenge in big and high-dimensional data analysis is related to the classification and prediction of the variables of interest by characterizing the relationships between the characteristic factors and predictors. This study aims to assess ...

Using machine learning for real-time BAC estimation from a new-generation transdermal biosensor in the laboratory.

Drug and alcohol dependence
BACKGROUND: Transdermal biosensors offer a noninvasive, low-cost technology for the assessment of alcohol consumption with broad potential applications in addiction science. Older-generation transdermal devices feature bulky designs and sparse sampli...

Modeling motivation for alcohol in humans using traditional and machine learning approaches.

Addiction biology
Given the significant cost of alcohol use disorder (AUD), identifying risk factors for alcohol seeking represents a research priority. Prominent addiction theories emphasize the role of motivation in the alcohol seeking process, which has largely bee...

Correlating exhaled aerosol images to small airway obstructive diseases: A study with dynamic mode decomposition and machine learning.

PloS one
BACKGROUND: Exhaled aerosols from lungs have unique patterns, and their variation can be correlated to the underlying lung structure and associated abnormities. However, it is challenging to characterize such aerosol patterns and differentiate their ...

A Study of Diagnostic Accuracy Using a Chemical Sensor Array and a Machine Learning Technique to Detect Lung Cancer.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death around the world, and lung cancer screening remains challenging. This study aimed to develop a breath test for the detection of lung cancer using a chemical sensor array and a machine learning techniqu...

Preliminary investigation of human exhaled breath for tuberculosis diagnosis by multidimensional gas chromatography - Time of flight mass spectrometry and machine learning.

Journal of chromatography. B, Analytical technologies in the biomedical and life sciences
Tuberculosis (TB) remains a global public health malady that claims almost 1.8 million lives annually. Diagnosis of TB represents perhaps one of the most challenging aspects of tuberculosis control. Gold standards for diagnosis of active TB (culture ...

Exhaled breath condensate metabolome clusters for endotype discovery in asthma.

Journal of translational medicine
BACKGROUND: Asthma is a complex, heterogeneous disorder with similar presenting symptoms but with varying underlying pathologies. Exhaled breath condensate (EBC) is a relatively unexplored matrix which reflects the signatures of respiratory epitheliu...
