OBJECTIVES: We aimed to evaluate the ability of feed-forward neural networks (fNNs) to predict the neurodevelopmental outcome (NDO) of very preterm neonates (VPIs) at 12 months corrected age by using biomarkers of cerebral MR proton spectroscopy (H-M...
BACKGROUND: The early life risk factors of childhood obesity among preterm infants are unclear and little is known about the influence of the feeding practices. We aimed to identify early life risk factors for childhood overweight/obesity among prete...
Hemodynamic support in neonatal intensive care is directed at maintaining cardiovascular wellbeing. At present, monitoring of vital signs plays an essential role in augmenting care in a reactive manner. By applying machine learning techniques, a mode...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Preterm birth imposes a high risk for developing neuromotor delay. Earlier prediction of adverse outcome in preterm infants is crucial for referral to earlier intervention. This study aimed to predict abnormal motor outcome at 2 ...

OBJECTIVE: Preterm infants' limb monitoring in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) is of primary importance for assessing infants' health status and motor/cognitive development. Herein, we propose a new approach to preterm infants' limb pose estima...
Fetal yawning is of interest because of its clinical, developmental and theoretical implications. However, the methodological challenges of identifying yawns from ultrasonographic scans have not been systematically addressed. We report two studies th...
UNLABELLED: Non-contact vital sign monitoring enables the estimation of vital signs, such as heart rate, respiratory rate and oxygen saturation (SpO), by measuring subtle color changes on the skin surface using a video camera. For patients in a hospi...

INTRODUCTION: Endocan is a specific endothelial mediator involved in the inflammatory response. Its role in the diagnosis of sepsis has been studied in adult patients and late onset neonatal sepsis. The clinical signs of early onset sepsis (EOS) are ...
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to develop an automated diagnosis and quantitative analysis system for plus disease. The system provides a diagnostic decision but also performs quantitative analysis of the typical pathological features of t...
