Application of machine learning in the diagnosis of gastric cancer based on noninvasive characteristics.

PloS one
BACKGROUND: The diagnosis of gastric cancer mainly relies on endoscopy, which is invasive and costly. The aim of this study is to develop a predictive model for the diagnosis of gastric cancer based on noninvasive characteristics.

Evaluation of Glomerular Filtration Rate in Chronic Kidney Disease by Radial Basis Function Neural Network.

Transplantation proceedings
OBJECTIVE: To develop a radial basis function (RBF) neural network and investigate its performance in the estimation of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) for patients with chronic kidney disease.

Early Recognition of Burn- and Trauma-Related Acute Kidney Injury: A Pilot Comparison of Machine Learning Techniques.

Scientific reports
Severely burned and non-burned trauma patients are at risk for acute kidney injury (AKI). The study objective was to assess the theoretical performance of artificial intelligence (AI)/machine learning (ML) algorithms to augment AKI recognition using ...

Identifying progressive CKD from healthy population using Bayesian network and artificial intelligence: A worksite-based cohort study.

Scientific reports
Identifying progressive early chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients at a health checkup is a good opportunity to improve their prognosis. However, it is difficult to identify them using common health tests. This worksite-based cohort study for 7 year...

Minimally invasive, robot-assisted procedure for kidney transplantation among morbidly obese: Positive outcomes at 5 years post-transplant.

Clinical transplantation
The pre-transplant weight loss required of end-stage renal disease patients is often unachievable. Though robot-assisted procedures among extremely obese have shown minimal complication, long-term outcomes are understudied. Previously, we reported no...

Population pharmacokinetics of continuous infusion of piperacillin in critically ill patients.

International journal of antimicrobial agents
Dosing recommendations for continuous infusion of piperacillin, a broad-spectrum beta-lactam antibiotic, are mainly guided by outputs from population pharmacokinetic models constructed with intermittent infusion data. However, the probability of targ...

The effect of establishing pre-angiography thresholds on contrast utilization.

Journal of interventional cardiology
INTRODUCTION: Contrast induced nephropathy is linked to contrast utilization and strategies for minimizing renal injury are incorporated into many laboratories that perform coronary angiography. Contrast limits have been described, below which there ...

Prognostic value of postoperative high-sensitivity troponin T in patients with different stages of kidney disease undergoing noncardiac surgery.

British journal of anaesthesia
BACKGROUND: Emerging evidence suggests that postoperative troponin release is a strong and independent predictor of short-term mortality. However, evaluating elevated troponins in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is still controversial and ...
