Multi-Site Diagnostic Classification of Schizophrenia Using Discriminant Deep Learning with Functional Connectivity MRI.

EBioMedicine
BACKGROUND: A lack of a sufficiently large sample at single sites causes poor generalizability in automatic diagnosis classification of heterogeneous psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia based on brain imaging scans. Advanced deep learning met...

Robust Machine Learning Variable Importance Analyses of Medical Conditions for Health Care Spending.

Health services research
OBJECTIVE: To propose nonparametric double robust machine learning in variable importance analyses of medical conditions for health spending.

Using deep learning and Google Street View to estimate the demographic makeup of neighborhoods across the United States.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
The United States spends more than $250 million each year on the American Community Survey (ACS), a labor-intensive door-to-door study that measures statistics relating to race, gender, education, occupation, unemployment, and other demographic facto...

Older adults' acceptance of a robot for partner dance-based exercise.

PloS one
Partner dance has been shown to be beneficial for the health of older adults. Robots could potentially facilitate healthy aging by engaging older adults in partner dance-based exercise. However, partner dance involves physical contact between the dan...

ArmAssist Robotic System versus Matched Conventional Therapy for Poststroke Upper Limb Rehabilitation: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

BioMed research international
The ArmAssist is a simple low-cost robotic system for upper limb motor training that combines known benefits of repetitive task-oriented training, greater intensity of practice, and less dependence on therapist assistance. The aim of this preliminary...

Comparison of inflammatory responses following robotic and open colorectal surgery: a prospective study.

International journal of colorectal disease
PURPOSE: Robotic colorectal surgery continues to rise in popularity, but there remains little evidence on the stress response following the procedure. The aim of this study was to evaluate the inflammatory response to robotic colorectal surgery and c...

Urogenital function in robotic vs laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery: a comparative study.

International journal of colorectal disease
PURPOSE: Urological and sexual dysfunction are recognised risks of rectal cancer surgery; however, there is limited evidence regarding urogenital function comparing robotic to laparoscopic techniques. The aim of this study was to assess the urogenita...

Combined robotic transanal total mesorectal excision (R-taTME) and single-site plus one-port (R-SSPO) technique for ultra-low rectal surgery-initial experience with a new operation approach.

International journal of colorectal disease
OBJECTIVE: Robot-assisted rectal surgery is gaining popularity, and robotic single-site surgery is also being explored clinically. We report our initial experience with robotic transanal total mesorectal excision (R-taTME) and radical proctectomy usi...
