Use of Deep Learning to Examine the Association of the Built Environment With Prevalence of Neighborhood Adult Obesity.

JAMA network open
IMPORTANCE: More than one-third of the adult population in the United States is obese. Obesity has been linked to factors such as genetics, diet, physical activity, and the environment. However, evidence indicating associations between the built envi...

Granulomatosis with polyangiitis in Northeastern Brazil: study of 25 cases and review of the literature.

Advances in rheumatology (London, England)
BACKGROUND: Little has been published about the epidemiology of Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) in South America, especially in the intertropical zone, and no epidemiological data from Brazil are available. The purpose of the present study was...

Detection of Longitudinal Visual Field Progression in Glaucoma Using Machine Learning.

American journal of ophthalmology
PURPOSE: Global indices of standard automated perimerty are insensitive to localized losses, while point-wise indices are sensitive but highly variable. Region-wise indices sit in between. This study introduces a machine learning-based index for glau...

Peripheral bronchial identification on chest CT using unsupervised machine learning.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: To automatically identify small- to medium-diameter bronchial segments distributed throughout the lungs.

The effect of a wearable soft-robotic glove on motor function and functional performance of older adults.

Assistive technology : the official journal of RESNA
Reduced grip strength, resulting in difficulties in performing daily activities, is a common problem in the population of older adults. Newly developed soft-robotic devices have the potential to support older adults with reduced grip in daily activit...

Factors associated with dementia in elderly.

Ciencia & saude coletiva
We analyzed the factors associated with dementia in the elderly attended at a memory outpatient clinic of the University of Southern Santa Catarina (UNISUL). This is a cross-sectional study with data analysis of medical records from January 2013 to A...

Reliability, validity and discriminant ability of the instrumental indices provided by a novel planar robotic device for upper limb rehabilitation.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: In the last few years, there has been an increasing interest in the use of robotic devices to objectively quantify motor performance of patients after brain damage. Although these robot-derived measures can potentially add meaningful info...

Identifying cytokine predictors of cognitive functioning in breast cancer survivors up to 10 years post chemotherapy using machine learning.

Journal of neuroimmunology
INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this study is to explore 13 cytokine predictors of chemotherapy-related cognitive impairment (CRCI) in breast cancer survivors (BCS) 6 months to 10 years after chemotherapy completion using a multivariate, non-parametric ...

Runners with patellofemoral pain demonstrate sub-groups of pelvic acceleration profiles using hierarchical cluster analysis: an exploratory cross-sectional study.

BMC musculoskeletal disorders
BACKGROUND: Previous studies have suggested that distinct and homogenous sub-groups of gait patterns exist among runners with patellofemoral pain (PFP), based on gait analysis. However, acquisition of 3D kinematic data using optical systems is time c...

A Deep Learning Algorithm for Prediction of Age-Related Eye Disease Study Severity Scale for Age-Related Macular Degeneration from Color Fundus Photography.

Ophthalmology
PURPOSE: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a common threat to vision. While classification of disease stages is critical to understanding disease risk and progression, several systems based on color fundus photographs are known. Most of these...
