UNLABELLED: Cough is a protective reflex conveying information on the state of the respiratory system. Cough assessment has been limited so far to subjective measurement tools or uncomfortable (i.e., non-wearable) cough monitors. This limits the pote...
PURPOSE: Previous approaches using deep learning (DL) algorithms to classify glaucomatous damage on fundus photographs have been limited by the requirement for human labeling of a reference training set. We propose a new approach using quantitative s...

OBJECTIVES: To develop a health economic model that included a great diversity of patient characteristics and outcomes for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which can be used to inform decisions about stratified medicine in COPD.
Abnormality of the cardiac conduction system can induce arrhythmia - abnormal heart rhythm - that can frequently lead to other cardiac diseases and complications, and are sometimes life-threatening. These conduction system perturbations can manifest ...
Ultrasonography images of breast mass aid in the detection and diagnosis of breast cancer. Manually analyzing ultrasonography images is time-consuming, exhausting and subjective. Automated analyzing such images is desired. In this study, we develop a...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Thrombus characteristics identified on non-contrast CT (NCCT) are potentially associated with recanalization with intravenous (IV) alteplase in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Our aim was to determine the best radio...
The aims were to characterize follicular dynamics in response to supplemental progesterone (P4) and to investigate the relationships between follicular growth and onset of luteolysis in P4-treated cows, submitted or not to artificial insemination (AI...
BACKGROUND: Two major concerns with respect to task-based motor functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) are inadequate participants' performance as well as intra- and inter-subject variability in execution of the motor action.
