SAEROF: an ensemble approach for large-scale drug-disease association prediction by incorporating rotation forest and sparse autoencoder deep neural network.

Scientific reports
Drug-disease association is an important piece of information which participates in all stages of drug repositioning. Although the number of drug-disease associations identified by high-throughput technologies is increasing, the experimental methods ...

SVM-based waist circumference estimation using Kinect.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Conventional anthropometric studies using Kinect depth sensors have concentrated on estimating the distances between two points such as height. This paper deals with a novel waist measurement method using SVM regression, fur...

Machine learning as new promising technique for selection of significant features in obese women with type 2 diabetes.

Hormone molecular biology and clinical investigation
Background The global trend of obesity and diabetes is considerable. Recently, the early diagnosis and accurate prediction of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients have been planned to be estimated according to precise and reliable methods, artifi...

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...
