Utilizing dynamic treatment information for MACE prediction of acute coronary syndrome.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
BACKGROUND: Main adverse cardiac events (MACE) are essentially composite endpoints for assessing safety and efficacy of treatment processes of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients. Timely prediction of MACE is highly valuable for improving the effe...

The influence of maternal agency on severe child undernutrition in conflict-ridden Nigeria: Modeling heterogeneous treatment effects with machine learning.

PloS one
Nigeria is one of the fastest growing African economies, yet struggles with armed conflict, poverty, and morbidity. An area of high concern is how this situation affects vulnerable families and their children. A key pathway in improving the situation...

Segmenting accelerometer data from daily life with unsupervised machine learning.

PloS one
PURPOSE: Accelerometers are increasingly used to obtain valuable descriptors of physical activity for health research. The cut-points approach to segment accelerometer data is widely used in physical activity research but requires resource expensive ...

Using machine learning and an ensemble of methods to predict kidney transplant survival.

PloS one
We used an ensemble of statistical methods to build a model that predicts kidney transplant survival and identifies important predictive variables. The proposed model achieved better performance, measured by Harrell's concordance index, than the Esti...

Effective binding to protein antigens by antibodies from antibody libraries designed with enhanced protein recognition propensities.

mAbs
Antibodies provide immune protection by recognizing antigens of diverse chemical properties, but elucidating the amino acid sequence-function relationships underlying the specificity and affinity of antibody-antigen interactions remains challenging. ...

Alternative Diagnosis of Epilepsy in Children Without Epileptiform Discharges Using Deep Convolutional Neural Networks.

International journal of neural systems
Numerous nonepileptic paroxysmal events, such as syncope and psychogenic nonepileptic seizures, may imitate seizures and impede diagnosis. Misdiagnosis can lead to mistreatment, affecting patients' lives considerably. Electroencephalography is common...

Enabling single-site laparoscopy: the SPORT platform.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: The Single Port Orifice Robotic Technology (SPORT) Surgical System by Titan Medical Inc. is designed to overcome the inherent challenges of minimally invasive single-access procedures. The aim of this preclinical study was to evaluate the...

A study on quality assessment of the surface EEG signal based on fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method.

Computer assisted surgery (Abingdon, England)
Surface EEG (Electroencephalography) signal is vulnerable to interference due to its characteristics and sampling methods. So it is of great importance to evaluate the collected EEG signal prior to use. Traditional methods usually use the impedance b...
