BACKGROUND: Modern machine learning and deep learning methods have been widely incorporated in decision making processes in healthcare in the form of decision support mechanisms. In healthcare, data are abundant but typically not centrally available ...
BACKGROUND: Inflammation-related biomarkers, such as systemic inflammation score (SIS) and neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), are associated with colorectal cancer prognosis. However, the combined role of SIS, NLR, and clinicopathological factors in ...
Ultrasound (US) imaging is an essential diagnostic technique in prenatal care, enabling enhanced surveillance of fetal growth and development. Fetal ultrasonography standard planes are crucial for evaluating fetal development parameters and detecting...
BACKGROUND: Mammography for the diagnosis of early breast cancer (BC) relies heavily on the identification of breast masses. However, in the early stages, it might be challenging to ascertain whether a breast mass is benign or malignant. Consequently...
The evaluation of drug-gene-disease interactions is key for the identification of drugs effective against disease. However, at present, drugs that are effective against genes that are critical for disease are difficult to identify. Following a diseas...
BACKGROUND: During the Omicron BA.2 variant outbreak in Shanghai, China, from April to May 2022, PCR nucleic acid test re-positivity (TR) occurred frequently, yet the risk factors and predictive models for TR remain unclear. This study aims to identi...
BACKGROUND: To protect patients during anesthesia, difficult airway management is a serious issue that needs to be carefully planned for and carried out. Machine learning prediction tools have recently become increasingly common in medicine, frequent...
Artificial Intelligence (AI), especially Machine Learning (ML), has developed systems capable of performing tasks that require human intelligence. In anesthesiology and other medical fields, AI applications can improve the precision and efficiency of...
BACKGROUND: Accurate triage is required for efficient allocation of resources and to decrease patients' length of stay. Triage decisions are often subjective and vary by provider, leading to patients being over-triaged or under-triaged. This study de...
BACKGROUND: Vaccines development in this millennium started by the milestone work on Neisseria meningitidis B, reporting the invention of Reverse Vaccinology (RV), which allows to identify vaccine candidates (VCs) by screening bacterial pathogens gen...
