BACKGROUND: Sjögren's Disease (SjD) is histopathologically characterized by focal sialadenitis in minor labial salivary gland biopsies (mLSGB), which is evaluated by utilizing the focus score (FS). Focus score ≥1 identification is a critical step of ...
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Obesity is a global health issue, and in this context, bariatric surgery is considered the most effective treatment for severe cases. However, postoperative outcomes vary widely among individuals, driving the development of too...
BACKGROUND: Tibial intramedullary nailing (IMN) represents a standard treatment for fractures of the tibial shaft. Nevertheless, accurately predicting the appropriate nail length prior to surgery remains a challenging endeavour. Conventional techniqu...
BACKGROUND: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a severe complication associated with a high mortality rate in patients with sepsis. Early identification of patients with sepsis at high risk of developing ARDS is crucial for timely interven...
PURPOSE: To describe the development of the AcroFace system, an AI-based system for early detection of acromegaly, based on facial photographs analysis.
This study aimed to develop an X-ray radiomics model for predicting collapse of early-stage osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). A total of 87 patients (111 hips; training set: n = 67, test set: n = 44) with non-traumatic ONFH at Association Res...
Non-specific response to treatment (NSRT) is the primary contributor to the failure of randomized clinical trials in major depressive disorder (MDD). The objective of this study is to develop artificial neural network (ANN) models to predict the indi...
Patients with lung metastasis of colorectal cancer typically have a poor prognosis. Therefore, establishing an effective screening and diagnosis model is paramount. Our study seeks to construct and verify a predictive model utilizing machine learning...
Increasing the number of organ donations after circulatory death (DCD) has been identified as one of the most important ways of addressing the ongoing organ shortage. While recent technological advances in organ transplantation have increased their s...
