Multivariate resting-state functional connectivity predicts responses to real and sham acupuncture treatment in chronic low back pain.

NeuroImage. Clinical
Despite the high prevalence and socioeconomic impact of chronic low back pain (cLBP), treatments for cLBP are often unsatisfactory, and effectiveness varies widely across patients. Recent neuroimaging studies have demonstrated abnormal resting-state ...

Identifying Children With Clinical Language Disorder: An Application of Machine-Learning Classification.

Journal of learning disabilities
In this study, we identified child- and family-level characteristics most strongly associated with clinical identification of language disorder for preschool-aged children. We used machine learning to identify variables that best classified children ...

A machine learning based model for Out of Hospital cardiac arrest outcome classification and sensitivity analysis.

Resuscitation
BACKGROUND: Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) affects nearly 400,000 people each year in the United States of which only 10% survive. Using data from the Cardiac Arrest Registry to Enhance Survival (CARES), and machine learning (ML) techniques, w...

Qualitative versus quantitative lumbar spinal stenosis grading by machine learning supported texture analysis-Experience from the LSOS study cohort.

European journal of radiology
PURPOSE: To investigate and compare the reproducibility and accuracy of qualitative ratings and quantitative texture analysis (TA) in detection and grading of lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) in magnetic resonance imaging (MR) scans of the lumbar spine.

A systematic review shows no performance benefit of machine learning over logistic regression for clinical prediction models.

Journal of clinical epidemiology
OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study was to compare performance of logistic regression (LR) with machine learning (ML) for clinical prediction modeling in the literature.

Machine learning vs addiction therapists: A pilot study predicting alcohol dependence treatment outcome from patient data in behavior therapy with adjunctive medication.

Journal of substance abuse treatment
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Clinical staff providing addiction treatment predict patient outcome poorly. Prognoses based on linear statistics are rarely replicated. Addiction is a complex non-linear behavior. Incorporating non-linear models, Machine L...

Effects of robot-assisted gait training in patients with Parkinson's disease: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial.

Trials
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) was developed to restore gait function by promoting neuroplasticity through repetitive locomotor training and has been utilized in gait training. However, contradictory outcomes of RAGT have been report...

Machine learning methods for leveraging baseline covariate information to improve the efficiency of clinical trials.

Statistics in medicine
Clinical trials are widely considered the gold standard for treatment evaluation, and they can be highly expensive in terms of time and money. The efficiency of clinical trials can be improved by incorporating information from baseline covariates tha...

Effectiveness of robotics in improving upper extremity functions among people with neurological dysfunction: a systematic review.

The International journal of neuroscience
PURPOSE: The primary focus of this review was to find out the effectiveness of robotics in improving upper extremity functions among people with neurological problems in the arena of physical rehabilitation.
