Infectious diseases, a major contributor to high mortality rates, often exhibit similar symptoms, despite variations in immune responses to bacterial or viral infections. Rapidly differentiating bacterial infections from viral infections in febrile p...
Utilizing thermal infrared facial imaging for fever screening in public spaces has become a common strategy to curb the spread of influenza viruses. However, it is difficult to capture larger number of faces with fever labels, which makes learning fa...
OBJECTIVE: Natural language processing (NLP) can enhance research studies for febrile infants by more comprehensive cohort identification. We aimed to refine and validate an NLP algorithm to identify and extract quantified temperature measurements fr...
BACKGROUND: Early diagnosis is key to reducing the morbi-mortality associated with P. falciparum malaria among international travellers. However, access to microbiological tests can be challenging for some healthcare settings. Artificial Intelligence...

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES: Scrub typhus is a zoonotic rickettsial disease that is transmitted by the bite of the larval stage (chiggers) of trombiculid mites. The aim of this study was to determine the existence of scrub typhus in central and eastern U...
BACKGROUND: Recent decision rules for the management of febrile infants support the identification of infants at higher risk of serious bacterial infections (SBIs) without the performance of routine lumbar puncture. We derive and validate a model to ...
BACKGROUND: Fever is the most common chief complaint of emergency patients. Early identification of patients at an increasing risk of death may avert adverse outcomes. The aim of this study was to establish an early prediction model of fatal adverse ...
