A large language model-based clinical decision support system for syncope recognition in the emergency department: A framework for clinical workflow integration.

European journal of internal medicine
Differentiation of syncope from transient loss of consciousness can be challenging in the emergency department (ED). Natural Language Processing (NLP) enables the analysis of free text in the electronic medical records (EMR). The present paper aimed ...

Effects of Individual Research Practices on fNIRS Signal Quality and Latent Characteristics.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is an increasingly popular tool for cross-cultural neuroimaging studies. However, the reproducibility and comparability of fNIRS studies is still an open issue in the scientific community. The paucity of ...

Development of a Natural Language Processing (NLP) model to automatically extract clinical data from electronic health records: results from an Italian comprehensive stroke center.

International journal of medical informatics
INTRODUCTION: Data collection often relies on time-consuming manual inputs, with a vast amount of information embedded in unstructured texts such as patients' medical records and clinical notes. Our study aims to develop a pipeline that combines acti...

Journal of preventive medicine and hygiene
The first annual meeting of the Italian Society for Artificial Intelligence in Medicine (Società Italiana Intelligenza Artificiale in Medicina, SIIAM) on December 7, 2023, marked a significant milestone in integrating artificial intelligence (AI) int...

Investigation of emergency department abandonment rates using machine learning algorithms in a single centre study.

Scientific reports
A critical problem that Emergency Departments (EDs) must address is overcrowding, as it causes extended waiting times and increased patient dissatisfaction, both of which are immediately linked to a greater number of patients who leave the ED early, ...

An initial exploration of machine learning for establishing associations between genetic markers and THC levels in Cannabis sativa samples.

Forensic science international. Genetics
Cannabis sativa, a globally commercialized plant used for medicinal, food, fiber production, and recreation, necessitates effective identification to distinguish legal and illegal varieties in forensic contexts. This research utilizes multivariate st...
