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...
OBJECTIVE: Natural language processing (NLP) can enhance research studies for febrile infants by more comprehensive cohort identification. We aimed to refine and validate an NLP algorithm to identify and extract quantified temperature measurements fr...

Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC) is a devastating condition affecting prematurely born neonates. Reviewing Abdominal X-rays (AXRs) is a key step in NEC diagnosis, staging and treatment decision-making, but poses significant challenges due to the subtl...
PURPOSE: Data on end-of-life care (EOLC) quality, assessed through evidence-based quality measures (QMs), are difficult to obtain. Natural language processing (NLP) enables efficient quality measurement and is not yet used for children with serious i...
Purpose To develop a deep learning algorithm to predict 2-year neurodevelopmental outcomes in neonates with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy using MRI and basic clinical data. Materials and Methods In this study, MRI data of term neonates with encepha...
