Dietary antioxidants and 10-year lung function decline in adults from the ECRHS survey.

The European respiratory journal
The relationship between lung function decline and dietary antioxidants over 10 years in adults from three European countries was investigated.In 2002, adults from three participating countries of the European Community Respiratory Health Survey (ECR...

Removal of pharmaceutical compounds from urban wastewater by an advanced bio-oxidation process based on fungi Trametes versicolor immobilized in a continuous RBC system.

Environmental science and pollution research international
Conventional wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are not able to remove completely some emerging contaminants, such as residual pharmaceutical compounds (PCs) with potential ecotoxicity to water bodies. An advanced bio-oxidation process (ABOP) using ...

Persistent light to moderate alcohol intake and lung function: A longitudinal study.

Alcohol (Fayetteville, N.Y.)
Alcohol intake has been inconsistently associated with lung function levels in cross-sectional studies. The goal of our study was to determine whether longitudinally assessed light-to-moderate alcohol intake is associated with levels and decline of l...

Development and validation of a multivariate predictive model for rheumatoid arthritis mortality using a machine learning approach.

Scientific reports
We developed and independently validated a rheumatoid arthritis (RA) mortality prediction model using the machine learning method Random Survival Forests (RSF). Two independent cohorts from Madrid (Spain) were used: the Hospital Clínico San Carlos RA...

Using machine learning to identify air pollution exposure profiles associated with early cognitive skills among U.S. children.

Environmental pollution (Barking, Essex : 1987)
Data-driven machine learning methods present an opportunity to simultaneously assess the impact of multiple air pollutants on health outcomes. The goal of this study was to apply a two-stage, data-driven approach to identify associations between air ...

Using machine learning and surface reconstruction to accurately differentiate different trajectories of mood and energy dysregulation in youth.

PloS one
Difficulty regulating positive mood and energy is a feature that cuts across different pediatric psychiatric disorders. Yet, little is known regarding the neural mechanisms underlying different developmental trajectories of positive mood and energy r...

Advanced analytical methodologies for measuring healthy ageing and its determinants, using factor analysis and machine learning techniques: the ATHLOS project.

Scientific reports
A most challenging task for scientists that are involved in the study of ageing is the development of a measure to quantify health status across populations and over time. In the present study, a Bayesian multilevel Item Response Theory approach is u...

A symptom network structure of the psychosis spectrum.

Schizophrenia research
Current diagnostic systems mainly focus on symptoms needed to classify patients with a specific mental disorder and do not take into account the variation in co-occurring symptoms and the interaction between the symptoms themselves. The innovative ne...
