BACKGROUND: Wearable devices enable continuous measurement of physical activity, sedentary behavior, sleep, and heart rate under free-living conditions. However, most validation studies rely on small, homogeneous samples; are conducted under laborato...
BACKGROUND: Preoperative prediction of surgical difficulty in robotic-assisted total mesorectal excision for rectal cancer remains challenging. While pelvic anatomical parameters measured by MRI have been associated with surgical complexity in laparo...
Central nervous system (CNS) involvement in primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS), although less frequent, can lead to serious complications. Our study aimed to assess white matter (WM) tract integrity, identify specific regions of disruption, quantify di...
Quantifying animal behavior is pivotal for identifying the neuronal and genetic mechanisms involved. Computational approaches have enabled automated analysis of complex behaviors such as aggression and courtship in . However, existing approaches rely...

A brain-computer interface (BCI) establishes a pathway for information transmission between a human (or animal) and an external device. It can be used to control devices such as prosthetic limbs and robotic arms, which in turn assist, rehabilitate, a...
Once we learn a reliable gait, we no longer have to consciously contract individual muscles to walk, or think about the fine-grained low-level control of our joints. Instead, we mainly make decisions on where we want to end up, at what pace and throu...
This study aimed to develop an artificial intelligence-based classification system using ultrasound images obtained via a transgluteal cleft scanning approach for detecting fecal retention in the lower rectum. The goal was to support accurate, object...
BACKGROUND: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is characterized by chronic inflammation and can be worsened by circadian disruption, which is common among shift work. Machine learning can predict the risk of MetS in shift workers using inflammatory biomarkers...

Diabetic nephropathy (DN), a major driver of end-stage kidney disease, elevates the risk for osteoporosis (OP) and its clinical precursor, low bone mineral density (low BMD), indicating broader systemic effects. While peripheral blood mononuclear cel...
Early diagnosis significantly improves survival rates for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), yet traditional methods face limitations, including specialized instruments/personnel and prolonged reporting cycles. While lateral flow immunoassay (LFA) offer...
