BACKGROUND: Genetic testing can determine family screening strategies and has prognostic and diagnostic value in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). However, it can also pose a significant psychosocial burden. Conventional scoring systems offer modest...
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted ventral hernia repair has shown itself to be feasible and safe in abdominal wall surgery. Presently, the ports are placed laterally to meet the distance from the fascial defect. The aim of our study is to report our experie...
Acute gastrointestinal bleeding is the most common gastrointestinal cause for hospitalization. For high-risk patients requiring intensive care unit stay, predicting transfusion needs during the first 24 h using dynamic risk assessment may improve res...
BACKGROUND: Small-incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) is a surgical procedure for the refractive correction of myopia and astigmatism, which has been reported as safe and effective. However, over- and under-correction still occur after SMILE. The n...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Knowledge of the proper dry weight plays a critical role in the efficiency of dialysis and the survival of hemodialysis patients. Recently, bioimpedance spectroscopy(BIS) has been widely used for set dry weight in hemodialysis pa...
With the growing utility of today's conversational virtual assistants, the importance of user motivation in human-artificial intelligence interactions is becoming more obvious. However, previous studies in this and related fields, such as human-compu...
The purpose of this paper is to examine, whether and under which conditions humans are able to predict the putting distance of a robotic device. Based on the "flash-lag effect" (FLE) it was expected that the prediction errors increase with increasing...
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to assess insignificant prostate cancer (iPCa) rates after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) in contemporary patients who were preoperatively eligible for active surveillance (AS). iPCa indicates no ris...
