Predicting malaria outbreak in The Gambia using machine learning techniques.

PloS one
Malaria is the most common cause of death among the parasitic diseases. Malaria continues to pose a growing threat to the public health and economic growth of nations in the tropical and subtropical parts of the world. This study aims to address this...

DeepDynaForecast: Phylogenetic-informed graph deep learning for epidemic transmission dynamic prediction.

PLoS computational biology
In the midst of an outbreak or sustained epidemic, reliable prediction of transmission risks and patterns of spread is critical to inform public health programs. Projections of transmission growth or decline among specific risk groups can aid in opti...

Addressing bias in artificial intelligence for public health surveillance.

Journal of medical ethics
Components of artificial intelligence (AI) for analysing social big data, such as natural language processing (NLP) algorithms, have improved the timeliness and robustness of health data. NLP techniques have been implemented to analyse large volumes ...

Combining Digital and Molecular Approaches Using Health and Alternate Data Sources in a Next-Generation Surveillance System for Anticipating Outbreaks of Pandemic Potential.

JMIR public health and surveillance
Globally, millions of lives are impacted every year by infectious diseases outbreaks. Comprehensive and innovative surveillance strategies aiming at early alert and timely containment of emerging and reemerging pathogens are a pressing priority. Shor...

Mpox (formerly monkeypox): pathogenesis, prevention, and treatment.

Signal transduction and targeted therapy
In 2022, a global outbreak of Mpox (formerly monkeypox) occurred in various countries across Europe and America and rapidly spread to more than 100 countries and regions. The World Health Organization declared the outbreak to be a public health emerg...

A machine learning-based universal outbreak risk prediction tool.

Computers in biology and medicine
In order to prevent and control the increasing number of serious epidemics, the ability to predict the risk caused by emerging outbreaks is essential. However, most current risk prediction tools, except EPIRISK, are limited by being designed for targ...

A novel bidirectional LSTM deep learning approach for COVID-19 forecasting.

Scientific reports
COVID-19 has resulted in significant morbidity and mortality globally. We develop a model that uses data from thirty days before a fixed time point to forecast the daily number of new COVID-19 cases fourteen days later in the early stages of the pand...

From an On-site Program to a Mobile App for Prehabilitation and Rehabilitation for Robotic Radical Prostatectomy: Lessons Learned from 5 Years of Experience, the COVID-19 Outbreak, and Comparison with Nationwide Data.

European urology oncology
Prehabilitation programs play a key role in optimizing patient experiences and outcomes after surgery. However, there are few data on robot-assisted radical prostatectomy, and prehabilitation programs may be challenging to launch and maintain over ti...

Influenza Epidemic Trend Surveillance and Prediction Based on Search Engine Data: Deep Learning Model Study.

Journal of medical Internet research
BACKGROUND: Influenza outbreaks pose a significant threat to global public health. Traditional surveillance systems and simple algorithms often struggle to predict influenza outbreaks in an accurate and timely manner. Big data and modern technology h...

Rapid Discrimination of ST175 Isolates Involved in a Nosocomial Outbreak Using MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry and FTIR Spectroscopy Coupled with Machine Learning.

Transboundary and emerging diseases
The goal of this study was to evaluate matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-iime of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR-S) as diagnostic alternatives to DNA-based methods for the detection ...
