Using deep-learning in fetal ultrasound analysis for diagnosis of cystic hygroma in the first trimester.

PloS one
OBJECTIVE: To develop and internally validate a deep-learning algorithm from fetal ultrasound images for the diagnosis of cystic hygromas in the first trimester.

Deep learning of quantitative ultrasound multi-parametric images at pre-treatment to predict breast cancer response to chemotherapy.

Scientific reports
In this study, a novel deep learning-based methodology was investigated to predict breast cancer response to neo-adjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) using the quantitative ultrasound (QUS) multi-parametric imaging at pre-treatment. QUS multi-parametric image...

Comparing regression modeling strategies for predicting hometime.

BMC medical research methodology
BACKGROUND: Hometime, the total number of days a person is living in the community (not in a healthcare institution) in a defined period of time after a hospitalization, is a patient-centred outcome metric increasingly used in healthcare research. Ho...

Cohort profile: St. Michael's Hospital Tuberculosis Database (SMH-TB), a retrospective cohort of electronic health record data and variables extracted using natural language processing.

PloS one
BACKGROUND: Tuberculosis (TB) is a major cause of death worldwide. TB research draws heavily on clinical cohorts which can be generated using electronic health records (EHR), but granular information extracted from unstructured EHR data is limited. T...

Application of machine learning to identify predators of stocked fish in Lake Ontario: using acoustic telemetry predation tags to inform management.

Journal of fish biology
Understanding predator-prey interactions and food web dynamics is important for ecosystem-based management in aquatic environments, as they experience increasing rates of human-induced changes, such as the addition and removal of fishes. To quantify ...

Conditionally positive: a qualitative study of public perceptions about using health data for artificial intelligence research.

BMJ open
OBJECTIVES: Given widespread interest in applying artificial intelligence (AI) to health data to improve patient care and health system efficiency, there is a need to understand the perspectives of the general public regarding the use of health data ...

Identifying drugs with disease-modifying potential in Parkinson's disease using artificial intelligence and pharmacoepidemiology.

Pharmacoepidemiology and drug safety
PURPOSE: The aim of the study was to assess the feasibility of an approach combining computational methods and pharmacoepidemiology to identify potentially disease-modifying drugs in Parkinson's disease (PD).
