This study proposes a method for measuring the height and weight of a neonate conveniently, safely, and accurately by applying a convolutional neural network to frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) radar sensor data. Fifteen neonates, with pare...
Rapidly increasing healthcare spending globally is significantly driven by high-need, high-cost (HNHC) patients, who account for the top 5% of annual healthcare costs but over half of total expenditures. The programs targeting existing HNHC patients ...
OBJECTIVE: To assess patient characteristics and care factors that are associated with correct and incorrect predictions of future care locations (ICU vs. non-ICU) by the Criticality Index-Dynamic (CI-D), with the goal of enhancing the CI-D.
: Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is common in newborns, being associated with high morbidity and mortality. While maternal and neonatal conditions are known contributors, few studies use advanced machine learning (ML) as predictive factors. This stud...

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a major complication of tyrosinemia type 1 (HT-1), an inborn error of metabolism affecting tyrosine catabolism. The risk of HCC is higher in late diagnoses despite treatment. Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is widely used to...
IMPORTANCE: Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is the leading cause of preventable childhood blindness worldwide. If detected and treated early, ROP-associated blindness is preventable; however, identifying patients who might respond to treatment requi...
BACKGROUND: Pneumonia is a major threat to the health of children, especially those under the age of five. Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection is a core cause of pediatric pneumonia, and the incidence of severe mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (SMPP) has...
BACKGROUND: Maternal and newborn mortality remains a critical public health challenge, particularly in resource-limited settings. Despite global efforts, Kenya continues to report high maternal mortality rates of over 350 deaths per 100,000 live birt...
Therapeutic hypothermia (TH) significantly reduces mortality and morbidities in neonates with Neonatal Encephalopathy (NE). NE may result in neonatal death and multisystem organ impairment, including acute kidney injury (AKI). Our study aimed to util...
