BACKGROUND: The multifaceted issue of childhood stunting in low- and middle-income countries has a profound and enduring impact on children's well-being, cognitive development, and future earning potential. Childhood stunting arises from a complex in...
BACKGROUND: Stunting is a vital indicator of chronic undernutrition that reveals a failure to reach linear growth. Investigating growth and nutrition status during adolescence, in addition to infancy and childhood is very crucial. However, the availa...
BACKGROUND: Stunting is a serious public health concern in Rwanda, affecting around 33.3% of children under five in 2020. The researchers have employed machine learning algorithms to predict stunting in Rwanda; however, few studies used ANNs, despite...

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...
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: To develop an efficient machine-learning model using pituitary MRI radiomics and clinical data to differentiate growth hormone deficiency (GHD) from idiopathic short stature (ISS), making the diagnostic process more acceptab...

BACKGROUND: Our aim was to develop a machine learning model, using real-world data captured from a connected auto-injector device and from early indicators from the first 3 months of treatment, to predict sub-optimal adherence to recombinant human gr...
This paper aims to demonstrate the importance of studying interactions among various sociodemographic risk factors of childhood stunting in Bangladesh with the help of an interpretable machine learning method. Data used for the analyses are extracted...
