Remote vs. conventional navigation for catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation: insights from prospective registry data.

Clinical research in cardiology : official journal of the German Cardiac Society
BACKGROUND: Robotic (RNS) or magnetic navigation systems (MNS) are available for remotely performed catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF).

The usefulness of fine-needle aspirates for detection of recurrent carcinoma in the thyroid bed.

Journal of the American Society of Cytopathology
INTRODUCTION: Locoregional recurrence of thyroid carcinoma has a negative impact on patient prognosis. In the current study, we retrospectively reviewed cases of thyroid bed lesions in the last 3 years, correlating cytologic diagnoses with clinical f...

Identifying people at risk of developing type 2 diabetes: A comparison of predictive analytics techniques and predictor variables.

International journal of medical informatics
BACKGROUND: The present study aims to identify the patients at risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D). There is a body of literature that uses machine learning classification algorithms to predict development of T2D among patients. The current study compares ...

A Study of Diagnostic Accuracy Using a Chemical Sensor Array and a Machine Learning Technique to Detect Lung Cancer.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death around the world, and lung cancer screening remains challenging. This study aimed to develop a breath test for the detection of lung cancer using a chemical sensor array and a machine learning techniqu...

Wearable Sensor Data to Track Subject-Specific Movement Patterns Related to Clinical Outcomes Using a Machine Learning Approach.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Wearable sensors can provide detailed information on human movement but the clinical impact of this information remains limited. We propose a machine learning approach, using wearable sensor data, to identify subject-specific changes in gait patterns...

Ethambutol-induced optic neuropathy in renal disorder: a clinico-electrophysiological study.

Canadian journal of ophthalmology. Journal canadien d'ophtalmologie
OBJECTIVE: To report the spectrum of ethambutol induced optic neuropathy in a group of renal patients with tuberculosis and the role of visual evoked response (VER) in evaluating this disorder.

Usability Evaluation of a Novel Robotic Power Wheelchair for Indoor and Outdoor Navigation.

Archives of physical medicine and rehabilitation
OBJECTIVE: To compare the Mobility Enhancement roBotic (MEBot) wheelchair's capabilities with commercial electric-powered wheelchairs (EPWs) by performing a systematic usability evaluation.

Can the artificial intelligence technique of reinforcement learning use continuously-monitored digital data to optimize treatment for weight loss?

Journal of behavioral medicine
Behavioral weight loss (WL) trials show that, on average, participants regain lost weight unless provided long-term, intensive-and thus costly-intervention. Optimization solutions have shown mixed success. The artificial intelligence principle of "re...

The utility of artificial neural networks and classification and regression trees for the prediction of endometrial cancer in postmenopausal women.

Public health
OBJECTIVE: Artificial neural networks (ANNs) and classification and regression trees (CARTs) have been previously used for the prediction of cancer in several fields. In our study, we aim to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of three different meth...

Association of Reduced Nicotine Content Cigarettes With Smoking Behaviors and Biomarkers of Exposure Among Slow and Fast Nicotine Metabolizers: A Nonrandomized Clinical Trial.

JAMA network open
IMPORTANCE: The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has announced its intention to reduce the nicotine content in combustible cigarettes but must base regulation on public health benefits. Fast nicotine metabolizers may be at risk for increased smo...
