Personalized azithromycin treatment rules for children with watery diarrhea using machine learning.

Nature communications
We use machine learning to identify innovative strategies to target azithromycin to the children with watery diarrhea who are most likely to benefit. Using data from a randomized trial of azithromycin for watery diarrhea (NCT03130114), we develop per...

A retrospective study using machine learning to develop predictive model to identify rotavirus-associated acute gastroenteritis in children.

PeerJ
BACKGROUND: Rotavirus is the leading cause of severe dehydrating diarrhea in children under 5 years worldwide. Timely diagnosis is critical, but access to confirmatory testing is limited in hospital settings. Machine learning (ML) models have shown p...

Interpretable machine learning-derived nomogram model for early detection of persistent diarrhea in Salmonella typhimurium enteritis: a propensity score matching based case-control study.

BMC infectious diseases
BACKGROUND: Salmonella typhimurium infection is a considerable global health concern, particularly in children, where it often leads to persistent diarrhea. This condition can result in severe health complications including malnutrition and cognitive...

Development of a one-step multiplex RT-qPCR method for rapid detection of bovine diarrhea viruses.

Frontiers in cellular and infection microbiology
INTRODUCTION: Viral calf diarrhea poses a significant challenge to the cattle industry worldwide due to its high morbidity and mortality rates, leading to substantial economic losses. The clinical symptoms associated with various diarrhea pathogens o...

Derivation and validation of a clinical predictive model for longer duration diarrhea among pediatric patients in Kenya using machine learning algorithms.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
BACKGROUND: Despite the adverse health outcomes associated with longer duration diarrhea (LDD), there are currently no clinical decision tools for timely identification and better management of children with increased risk. This study utilizes machin...

Predictive modelling of linear growth faltering among pediatric patients with Diarrhea in Rural Western Kenya: an explainable machine learning approach.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
INTRODUCTION: Stunting affects one-fifth of children globally with diarrhea accounting for an estimated 13.5% of stunting. Identifying risk factors for its precursor, linear growth faltering (LGF), is critical to designing interventions. Moreover, de...

Development and internal validation of an artificial intelligence-assisted bowel sounds auscultation system to predict early enteral nutrition-associated diarrhoea in acute pancreatitis: a prospective observational study.

British journal of hospital medicine (London, England : 2005)
An artificial intelligence-assisted prediction model for enteral nutrition-associated diarrhoea (ENAD) in acute pancreatitis (AP) was developed utilising data obtained from bowel sounds auscultation. This model underwent validation through a single-...

Identification of COL3A1 as a candidate protein involved in the crosstalk between obesity and diarrhea using quantitative proteomics and machine learning.

European journal of pharmacology
BACKGROUND: Increasing epidemiologic studies have shown a positive correlation between obesity and chronic diarrhea. Nevertheless, the precise etiology remains uncertain.
