BACKGROUND: The influence of rising global temperatures on malaria dynamics and distribution remains controversial, especially in central highland regions. We aimed to address this subject by studying the spatiotemporal heterogeneity of malaria and t...
IMPORTANCE: Early detection and characterization of increased left ventricular (LV) wall thickness can markedly impact patient care but is limited by under-recognition of hypertrophy, measurement error and variability, and difficulty differentiating ...
BACKGROUND: Health care systems in the United States are increasingly interested in measuring and addressing social determinants of health (SDoH). Advances in electronic health record systems and Natural Language Processing (NLP) create a unique oppo...
OBJECTIVES: Prognostication of neurologic status among survivors of in-hospital cardiac arrests remains a challenging task for physicians. Although models such as the Cardiac Arrest Survival Post-Resuscitation In-hospital score are useful for predict...
BACKGROUND: Validated clinical prediction models of short-term remission in psychosis are lacking. Our aim was to develop a clinical prediction model aimed at predicting 4-6-week remission following a first episode of psychosis.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Robot-assisted laparoscopic hysterectomy is a safe and feasible approach in patients with higher body mass index (BMI). Slightly longer operating time in patients with high BMI did not result in higher complication or conve...
The human gut microbiome is a complex ecosystem that is closely related to the aging process. However, there is currently no reliable method to make full use of the metagenomics data of the gut microbiome to determine the age of the host. In this stu...
OBJECTIVE: Conventional frame-based stereotaxy through a transfrontal approach (TFA) is the gold standard in brainstem biopsies. Because of the high surgical morbidity and limited impact on therapy, brainstem biopsies are controversial. The introduct...
OBJECTIVES: Prognostication of outcome is an essential step in defining therapeutic goals after cardiac arrest. Gray-white-matter ratio obtained from brain CT can predict poor outcome. However, manual placement of regions of interest is a potential s...
