Spondyloarthritis Research and Treatment Network (SPARTAN) Clinical and Imaging Year in Review 2024.

Current rheumatology reports
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Diagnostic delay remains a critical challenge in axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA). This review highlights key clinical and imaging research from 2024 that addresses this persistent issue, with a focus on the evolving roles of MRI, a...

Causes and consequences of 'delays' in the diagnosis of spinal dural arterio-venous fistula; An illustrative case series, review and commentary.

Journal of clinical neuroscience : official journal of the Neurosurgical Society of Australasia
BACKGROUND: Delays in management and misdiagnosis are common in patients with spinal dural arteriovenous fistula (sdAVF). In this study we review the incidence of delays, where they occur in the diagnostic process, who is responsible and what are the...

Deep learning-based detection of eosinophilic esophagitis.

Endoscopy
BACKGROUND: For eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), a substantial diagnostic delay is still a clinically relevant phenomenon. Deep learning-based algorithms have demonstrated potential in medical image analysis. Here we establish a convolutional neuronal...

Detection of probable dementia cases in undiagnosed patients using structured and unstructured electronic health records.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
BACKGROUND: Dementia is underdiagnosed in both the general population and among Veterans. This underdiagnosis decreases quality of life, reduces opportunities for interventions, and increases health-care costs. New approaches are therefore necessary ...

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...

Patient research priorities in melanoma: a national qualitative interview study.

The British journal of dermatology
BACKGROUND: Outcomes for advanced melanoma have improved following the advent of immunotherapy and targeted therapy. This heralds a need for reconsideration of future research agendas. Patients can - and are keen to - help identify and prioritize res...

Reducing diagnostic delays in acute hepatic porphyria using health records data and machine learning.

Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association : JAMIA
BACKGROUND: Acute hepatic porphyria (AHP) is a group of rare but treatable conditions associated with diagnostic delays of 15 years on average. The advent of electronic health records (EHR) data and machine learning (ML) may improve the timely recogn...
