Application of machine learning to determine top predictors of noncalcified coronary burden in psoriasis: An observational cohort study.

Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology
BACKGROUND: Psoriasis is associated with elevated risk of heart attack and increased accumulation of subclinical noncalcified coronary burden by coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA). Machine learning algorithms have been shown to effective...

Is obesity a contraindication for kidney donation?

Surgical endoscopy
INTRODUCTION: To enlarge the donor pool, kidney donors with obesity have been considered. We hypothesized that it is safe for patients with obesity to serve as living kidney donors.

Machine learning of human plasma lipidomes for obesity estimation in a large population cohort.

PLoS biology
Obesity is associated with changes in the plasma lipids. Although simple lipid quantification is routinely used, plasma lipids are rarely investigated at the level of individual molecules. We aimed at predicting different measures of obesity based on...

Prediction of thirty-day morbidity and mortality after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy: data from an artificial neural network.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Multiple patient factors may convey increased risk of 30-day morbidity and mortality after laparoscopic vertical sleeve gastrectomy (LVSG). Assessing the likelihood of short-term morbidity is useful for both the bariatric surgeon and pati...

A Lightweight API-Based Approach for Building Flexible Clinical NLP Systems.

Journal of healthcare engineering
Natural language processing (NLP) has become essential for secondary use of clinical data. Over the last two decades, many clinical NLP systems were developed in both academia and industry. However, nearly all existing systems are restricted to speci...

Demographic, psychological, behavioral, and cognitive correlates of BMI in youth: Findings from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) study.

Psychological medicine
BACKGROUND: Previous research has implicated demographic, psychological, behavioral, and cognitive variables in the onset and maintenance of pediatric overweight/obesity. No adequately-powered study has simultaneously modeled these variables to asses...

Predicting nationwide obesity from food sales using machine learning.

Health informatics journal
The obesity epidemic progresses everywhere across the globe, and implementing frequent nationwide surveys to measure the percentage of obese population is costly. Conversely, country-level food sales information can be accessed inexpensively through ...

Effects of obesity on breast size, thoracic spine structure and function, upper torso musculoskeletal pain and physical activity in women.

Journal of sport and health science
PURPOSE: This study investigated the effects of obesity on breast size, thoracic spine structure and function, upper torso musculoskeletal pain and physical activity participation in women living independently in the community.

Developing a portable natural language processing based phenotyping system.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
BACKGROUND: This paper presents a portable phenotyping system that is capable of integrating both rule-based and statistical machine learning based approaches.

Clinical text classification with rule-based features and knowledge-guided convolutional neural networks.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
BACKGROUND: Clinical text classification is an fundamental problem in medical natural language processing. Existing studies have cocnventionally focused on rules or knowledge sources-based feature engineering, but only a limited number of studies hav...
