BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Pneumonia is a common complication after stroke, causing an increased length of hospital stay and death. Therefore, the timely and accurate prediction of post-stroke pneumonia would be highly valuable in clinical practice. Pre...
BACKGROUND: To develop a machine learning model for predicting acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) events through commonly available parameters, including baseline characteristics and clinical and laboratory parameters.
BACKGROUND: Multiple patient factors may convey increased risk of 30-day morbidity and mortality after laparoscopic vertical sleeve gastrectomy (LVSG). Assessing the likelihood of short-term morbidity is useful for both the bariatric surgeon and pati...

Visual inspection of histopathology images of stained biopsy tissue by expert pathologists is the standard method for grading of prostate cancer (PCa). However, this process is time-consuming and subject to high inter-observer variability. Machine le...
PURPOSE: To develop and evaluate a deep learning system for differentiating between eyes with and without glaucomatous visual field damage (GVFD) and predicting the severity of GFVD from spectral domain OCT (SDÂ OCT) optic nerve head images.
AIM: To assess the potential of supervised machine-learning techniques to identify clinical variables for predicting short-term and long-term glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) response after insulin treatment initiation in patients with type 2 diabetes me...

OBJECTIVE: to report our initial experience with pulmonary robotic segmentectomy, describing the surgical technique, the preferred positioning of portals, initial results and outcomes.
BACKGROUND: Current modes of identifying alcohol misuse in hospitalized patients rely on self-report questionnaires and diagnostic codes that have limitations, including low sensitivity. Information in the clinical notes of the electronic health reco...
AIM: To realise the automated prediction of soft-tissue sarcoma (STS) grading and lung metastasis based on computed tomography (CT), T1-weighted (T1W) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and fat-suppressed T2-weighted MRI (FST2W) via the convolutional ...
