The use of care robots in aged care: A systematic review of argument-based ethics literature.

Archives of gerontology and geriatrics
BACKGROUND: As care robots become more commonplace in aged-care settings, the ethical debate on their use becomes increasingly important. Our objective was to examine the ethical arguments and underlying concepts used in the ethical debate on care ro...

Sporulated Bacillus as alternative treatment for diarrhea of hospitalized adult patients under enteral nutrition: A pilot randomized controlled study.

Clinical nutrition ESPEN
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Among hospitalized patients receiving enteral nutrition (EN), malnutrition and antibiotic use are some of the most common causes of diarrhea. Prebiotics and probiotics agents have been used for treatment of diarrhea in such patient...

Very Deep Convolutional Neural Networks for Morphologic Classification of Erythrocytes.

Clinical chemistry
BACKGROUND: Morphologic profiling of the erythrocyte population is a widely used and clinically valuable diagnostic modality, but one that relies on a slow manual process associated with significant labor cost and limited reproducibility. Automated p...

Comparison of four statistical and machine learning methods for crash severity prediction.

Accident; analysis and prevention
Crash severity prediction models enable different agencies to predict the severity of a reported crash with unknown severity or the severity of crashes that may be expected to occur sometime in the future. This paper had three main objectives: compar...

Reconstructing cell cycle and disease progression using deep learning.

Nature communications
We show that deep convolutional neural networks combined with nonlinear dimension reduction enable reconstructing biological processes based on raw image data. We demonstrate this by reconstructing the cell cycle of Jurkat cells and disease progressi...

MIT-Skywalker: considerations on the Design of a Body Weight Support System.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: To provide body weight support during walking and balance training, one can employ two distinct embodiments: support through a harness hanging from an overhead system or support through a saddle/seat type. This paper presents a comparison...

Ontology-based specification, identification and analysis of perioperative risks.

Journal of biomedical semantics
BACKGROUND: Medical personnel in hospitals often works under great physical and mental strain. In medical decision-making, errors can never be completely ruled out. Several studies have shown that between 50 and 60% of adverse events could have been ...

Neural Network-Based Coronary Heart Disease Risk Prediction Using Feature Correlation Analysis.

Journal of healthcare engineering
BACKGROUND: Of the machine learning techniques used in predicting coronary heart disease (CHD), neural network (NN) is popularly used to improve performance accuracy.

Early Identification of Patients With Acute Decompensated Heart Failure.

Journal of cardiac failure
BACKGROUND: Interventions to reduce readmissions after acute heart failure hospitalization require early identification of patients. The purpose of this study was to develop and test accuracies of various approaches to identify patients with acute de...
