Comparative assessment of glucose prediction models for patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus applying sensors for glucose and physical activity monitoring.

Medical & biological engineering & computing
The present work presents the comparative assessment of four glucose prediction models for patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) using data from sensors monitoring blood glucose concentration. The four models are based on a feedforward neural...

Novel structural descriptors for automated colon cancer detection and grading.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
The histopathological examination of tissue specimens is necessary for the diagnosis and grading of colon cancer. However, the process is subjective and leads to significant inter/intra observer variation in diagnosis as it mainly relies on the visua...

Evaluation of machine learning algorithms for treatment outcome prediction in patients with epilepsy based on structural connectome data.

NeuroImage
The objective of this study is to evaluate machine learning algorithms aimed at predicting surgical treatment outcomes in groups of patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) using only the structural brain connectome. Specifically, the brain connect...

Understanding safety-critical interactions with a home medical device through Distributed Cognition.

Journal of biomedical informatics
As healthcare shifts from the hospital to the home, it is becoming increasingly important to understand how patients interact with home medical devices, to inform the safe and patient-friendly design of these devices. Distributed Cognition (DCog) has...

Recognition of activities of daily living in healthy subjects using two ad-hoc classifiers.

Biomedical engineering online
BACKGROUND: Activities of daily living (ADL) are important for quality of life. They are indicators of cognitive health status and their assessment is a measure of independence in everyday living. ADL are difficult to reliably assess using questionna...

Locomotor Adaptation by Transtibial Amputees Walking With an Experimental Powered Prosthesis Under Continuous Myoelectric Control.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Lower limb amputees can use electrical activity from their residual muscles for myoelectric control of a powered prosthesis. The most common approach for myoelectric control is a finite state controller that identifies behavioral states and discrete ...

Lack of association between anemia and renal disease progression in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes.

Journal of diabetes investigation
AIMS/INTRODUCTION: Anemia has a close interaction with renal dysfunction in diabetes patients. More proof is still awaited on the relationship between anemia and the progression of renal disease in this population.

The rate of mucosal healing by azathioprine therapy and prediction by artificial systems.

The Turkish journal of gastroenterology : the official journal of Turkish Society of Gastroenterology
BACKGROUND/AIMS: We aimed to assess the effect of azathioprine on mucosal healing in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). Artificial neural networks were applied to IBD data for predicting mucosal remission.

Adherence of the indication to European Association of Urology guideline recommended pelvic lymph node dissection at a high-volume center: Differences between open and robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.

European journal of surgical oncology : the journal of the European Society of Surgical Oncology and the British Association of Surgical Oncology
PURPOSE: Contemporary adherence of the indication to European Association of Urology (EAU) guideline recommendation for pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) at either open (ORP) or robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) at a high-volume center is...
