Preoperative blood and CT-image nutritional indicators in short-term outcomes and machine learning survival framework of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.

European journal of surgical oncology : the journal of the European Society of Surgical Oncology and the British Association of Surgical Oncology
BACKGROUND&AIMS: Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA) is aggressive with limited treatment and poor prognosis. Preoperative nutritional status assessment is crucial for predicting outcomes in patients. This study aimed to compare the predictive cap...

Enhancing surgical precision in squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck: Hyperspectral imaging and artificial intelligence for improved margin assessment in an ex vivo setting.

Spectrochimica acta. Part A, Molecular and biomolecular spectroscopy
BACKGROUND: Head and neck cancers, constituting 3-5% of all cancer cases, often require surgical resection for optimal outcomes. Achieving complete resection (R0) is crucial, but current methods, relying on white light endoscopy and microscopy, have ...

Machine learning to detect recent recreational drug use in intensive cardiac care units.

Archives of cardiovascular diseases
BACKGROUND: Although recreational drug use is a strong risk factor for acute cardiovascular events, systematic testing is currently not performed in patients admitted to intensive cardiac care units, with a risk of underdetection. To address this iss...

Machine Learning Analysis of Nutrient Associations with Peripheral Arterial Disease: Insights from NHANES 1999-2004.

Annals of vascular surgery
BACKGROUND: Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a common manifestation of atherosclerosis, affecting over 200 million people worldwide. The incidence of PAD is increasing due to the aging population. Common risk factors include smoking, diabetes, an...

Super-resolution deep-learning reconstruction with 1024 matrix improves CT image quality for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma assessment.

European journal of radiology
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the efficiency of super-resolution deep-learning reconstruction (SR-DLR) optimized for helical body imaging in assessing pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) using normal-resolution (NR) CT scanner.

Cost-effectiveness of AI-based diabetic retinopathy screening in nationwide health checkups and diabetes management in Japan: A modeling study.

Diabetes research and clinical practice
AIMS: We evaluated the cost-effectiveness of artificial intelligence (AI)-based diabetic retinopathy (DR) screening in Japan. This evaluation compared the simultaneous introduction of AI in nationwide health checkups, namely "specific health check-up...

UK Biobank MRI data can power the development of generalizable brain clocks: A study of standard ML/DL methodologies and performance analysis on external databases.

NeuroImage
In this study, we present a comprehensive pipeline to train and compare a broad spectrum of machine learning and deep learning brain clocks, integrating diverse preprocessing strategies and correction terms. Our analysis also includes established met...

Postoperative fever following surgery for oral cancer: Incidence, risk factors, and the formulation of a machine learning-based predictive model.

BMC oral health
BACKGROUND: Postoperative fever (POF) is a common occurrence in patients undergoing major surgery, presenting challenges and burdens for both patients and surgeons yet. This study endeavors to examine the incidence, identify risk factors, and establi...

Enhancing individual glomerular filtration rate assessment: can we trust the equation? Development and validation of machine learning models to assess the trustworthiness of estimated GFR compared to measured GFR.

BMC nephrology
BACKGROUND: Creatinine-based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) equations are widely used in clinical practice but exhibit inherent limitations. On the other side, measuring GFR is time consuming and not available in routine clinical practic...
