BACKGROUND: Studies focusing on prediction models are widespread in medicine. There is a trend in applying machine learning (ML) by medical researchers and clinicians. Over the years, multiple ML algorithms have been adapted to censored data. However...
INTRODUCTION: Nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) can be performed for the treatment of breast cancer and risk reduction, but total mammary glandular excision in NSM can be technically challenging. Minimally invasive robot-assisted NSM (RNSM) has the pot...
Machine-assisted treatment selection commonly follows one of two paradigms: a fully personalized paradigm which ignores any possible clustering of patients; or a sub-grouping paradigm which ignores personal differences within the identified groups. W...
The placebo effect across psychiatric disorders is still not well understood. In the present study, we conducted meta-analyses including meta-regression, and machine learning analyses to investigate whether the power of placebo effect depends on the ...
INTRODUCTION: Safety underreporting is a recurrent issue in clinical trials that can impact patient safety and data integrity. Clinical quality assurance (QA) practices used to detect underreporting rely on on-site audits; however, adverse events (AE...
Over the past few decades, the number of health and 'omics-related data' generated and stored has grown exponentially. Patient information can be collected in real time and explored using various artificial intelligence (AI) tools in clinical trials;...
OBJECTIVES: Antidepressants are first-line treatments for major depressive disorder (MDD), but 40-60% of patients will not respond, hence, predicting response would be a major clinical advance. Machine learning algorithms hold promise to predict trea...
The process of bringing a drug to market involves innumerable decisions to refine a concept into a final product. The final product goes through extensive research and development to meet the target product profile and to obtain a product that is man...
Clinical trials require substantial effort and time to complete, and regulatory agencies may require two successful efficacy trials before approving a new drug. One way to improve the chance of follow-up success is to identify a subpopulation among w...
