Five years ago, robot-assisted transaxillary thyroidectomy (RATT) was introduced in the Netherlands. The major advantage of this technique, when compared to the conventional approach, is the prevention of a potentially disfiguring scar in the neck. I...

Use of artificial neural networks to identify the predictive factors of extracorporeal shock wave therapy treating patients with chronic plantar fasciitis.

Scientific reports
The purpose of our study is to identify the predictive factors for a minimum clinically successful therapy after extracorporeal shock wave therapy for chronic plantar fasciitis. The demographic and clinical characteristics were evaluated. The artific...

Quality of Life in Adolescent Boys with Idiopathic Short Stature: Positive Impact of Growth Hormone and Aromatase Inhibitors.

Hormone research in paediatrics
BACKGROUND: The combination of growth hormone (GH) and aromatase inhibitors (AI) improves linear growth in severely short adolescent boys; however, the effects of this intervention on quality of life (QoL) are unknown. This study assesses whether GH,...

Machine learning-based prediction of heart failure readmission or death: implications of choosing the right model and the right metrics.

ESC heart failure
AIMS: Machine learning (ML) is widely believed to be able to learn complex hidden interactions from the data and has the potential in predicting events such as heart failure (HF) readmission and death. Recent studies have revealed conflicting results...
