Early identification of patients who require onward referral to social care can prevent delays to discharge from hospital. We introduce an explainable machine learning (ML) model to identify potential social care needs at the first point of admission...
Segmenting histological images and analyzing relevant regions are crucial for supporting pathologists in diagnosing various diseases. In prostate cancer diagnosis, Gleason grading and scoring relies on the recognition of different patterns in tissue ...
This study aimed to demonstrate whether plasma galectin-3 could predict the development of postoperative delirium (POD) in patients with acute aortic dissection (AAD). Prospective, observational study. Cardiac surgery intensive care unit. Consecutive...
Heavy metal exposure is acknowledged as a risk factor for poor health. However, the effect of heavy metal exposure on the prevalence of gallstones is still unknown. Therefore, we investigated the relationship between heavy metal concentrations and th...
This study proposes a method for measuring the height and weight of a neonate conveniently, safely, and accurately by applying a convolutional neural network to frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) radar sensor data. Fifteen neonates, with pare...
Rapidly increasing healthcare spending globally is significantly driven by high-need, high-cost (HNHC) patients, who account for the top 5% of annual healthcare costs but over half of total expenditures. The programs targeting existing HNHC patients ...
An accurate and reliable functional prognosis is vital to stroke patients addressing rehabilitation, to their families, and healthcare providers. This study aimed at developing and validating externally patient-wise prognostic models of the global fu...
Globally, mental disorders are a significant burden, particularly in low- and middle-income countries, with high prevalence in Rwanda, especially among survivors of the 1994 genocide against Tutsi. Machine learning offers promise in predicting mental...
BACKGROUND: About 40,000 people are living in Norwegian care homes, where a majority are living with a dementia diagnosis. Social isolation and loneliness are common issues affecting care home residents' quality of life. Due to visitation restriction...
BACKGROUND: Extubation failure leading to reintubation is associated with high mortality. In patients at high-risk of extubation failure, clinical practice guidelines recommend prophylactic non-invasive ventilation (NIV) over high-flow nasal oxygen (...
