PURPOSE: In silico trials using computational modeling and simulations can complement clinical trials to improve the time-to-market of complex cardiovascular devices in humans. This study aims to investigate the significance of synthetic data in deve...
INTRODUCTION: Primary refractory disease affects 30-40% of patients diagnosed with DLBCL and is a significant challenge in disease management due to its poor prognosis. Predicting refractory status could greatly inform treatment strategies, enabling ...
BACKGROUND: Biological ageing markers are useful to risk stratify morbidity and mortality more precisely than chronological age. In this study, we aimed to develop a novel deep-learning-based biological ageing marker (referred to as RetiPhenoAge here...
BACKGROUND: Imbalanced datasets pose significant challenges in predictive modeling, leading to biased outcomes and reduced model reliability. This study addresses data imbalance in diabetes prediction using machine learning techniques. Utilizing data...

INTRODUCTION: The elevated mortality and hospitalization rates among hemodialysis (HD) patients underscore the necessity for the development of accurate predictive tools. This study developed two models for predicting all-cause mortality and time to ...
BACKGROUND: Racial disparities in COVID-19 incidence and outcomes have been widely reported. Non-Hispanic Black patients endured worse outcomes disproportionately compared with non-Hispanic White patients, but the epidemiological basis for these obse...
Studies on obesity and risk factors from a life-course perspective among residents in the Tibet Plateau with recent economic growth and increasing obesity are important and urgently needed. The birth cohort in this area provides a unique opportunity ...
BACKGROUND: While many patients seem to recover from SARS-CoV-2 infections, many patients report experiencing SARS-CoV-2 symptoms for weeks or months after their acute COVID-19 ends, even developing new symptoms weeks after infection. These long-term...
