OBJECTIVE: Accurate identification of children who will develop delay (DD) is challenging for therapists because recent studies have reported that children who underwent early intervention achieved more favorable outcomes than those who did not. In t...
BACKGROUND: Pediatric chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a common chronic inflammatory disease with a high recurrence rate after surgery. This study aimed to construct and validate a machine learning-based predictive model to predict the risk of postope...
Meningococcal meningitis poses a significant public health burden in the meningitis belt region of sub-Saharan Africa. The introduction of the meningococcal PsA-TT vaccine (MenAfriVac®) has successfully eliminated Neisseria meningitidis serogroup A (...
OBJECTIVES: Malnutrition is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality for children under-5 globally. Low- and middle-income countries, such as Kenya, bear the greatest burden of malnutrition. The Kenyan government has been collecting clinical indica...
PURPOSE: To create a computer-aided prediction (CAP) system to predict Wilms tumor (WT) responsiveness to preoperative chemotherapy (PC) using pre-therapy contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT).
BACKGROUND: Perimembranous ventricular septal defect (PMVSD) is a prevalent congenital heart disease, presenting challenges in predicting spontaneous closure, which is crucial for therapeutic decisions. Existing models mainly rely on structured echoc...
Objective: The Phoenix sepsis criteria define sepsis in children with suspected or confirmed infection who have ≥2 in the Phoenix Sepsis Score. The adoption of the Phoenix sepsis criteria eliminated the Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome criteri...
