A machine learning ensemble to predict treatment outcomes following an Internet intervention for depression.

Psychological medicine
BACKGROUND: Some Internet interventions are regarded as effective treatments for adult depression, but less is known about who responds to this form of treatment.

Using clinical Natural Language Processing for health outcomes research: Overview and actionable suggestions for future advances.

Journal of biomedical informatics
The importance of incorporating Natural Language Processing (NLP) methods in clinical informatics research has been increasingly recognized over the past years, and has led to transformative advances. Typically, clinical NLP systems are developed and...

Machine learning for real-time prediction of complications in critical care: a retrospective study.

The Lancet. Respiratory medicine
BACKGROUND: The large amount of clinical signals in intensive care units can easily overwhelm health-care personnel and can lead to treatment delays, suboptimal care, or clinical errors. The aim of this study was to apply deep machine learning method...

Do powered over-ground lower limb robotic exoskeletons affect outcomes in the rehabilitation of people with acquired brain injury?

Disability and rehabilitation. Assistive technology
To assess the effects of lower limb robotic exoskeletons on outcomes in the rehabilitation of people with acquired brain injury. A systematic review of seven electronic databases was conducted. The primary outcome of interest was neuromuscular funct...

Value of Neighborhood Socioeconomic Status in Predicting Risk of Outcomes in Studies That Use Electronic Health Record Data.

JAMA network open
IMPORTANCE: Data from electronic health records (EHRs) are increasingly used for risk prediction. However, EHRs do not reliably collect sociodemographic and neighborhood information, which has been shown to be associated with health. The added contri...

Deep learning applied to whole-brain connectome to determine seizure control after epilepsy surgery.

Epilepsia
OBJECTIVE: We evaluated whether deep learning applied to whole-brain presurgical structural connectomes could be used to predict postoperative seizure outcome more accurately than inference from clinical variables in patients with mesial temporal lob...

Artificial intelligence and machine learning in emergency medicine.

Emergency medicine Australasia : EMA
Interest in artificial intelligence (AI) research has grown rapidly over the past few years, in part thanks to the numerous successes of modern machine learning techniques such as deep learning, the availability of large datasets and improvements in ...

Augmented outcome-weighted learning for estimating optimal dynamic treatment regimens.

Statistics in medicine
Dynamic treatment regimens (DTRs) are sequential treatment decisions tailored by patient's evolving features and intermediate outcomes at each treatment stage. Patient heterogeneity and the complexity and chronicity of many diseases call for learning...

Assessing Effectiveness and Costs in Robot-Mediated Lower Limbs Rehabilitation: A Meta-Analysis and State of the Art.

Journal of healthcare engineering
Robots were introduced in rehabilitation in the 90s to meet different needs, that is, reducing the physical effort of therapists. This work consists of a meta-analysis of robot-mediated lower limbs rehabilitation for stroke-affected patients; it aims...

Optimal two-stage dynamic treatment regimes from a classification perspective with censored survival data.

Biometrics
Clinicians often make multiple treatment decisions at key points over the course of a patient's disease. A dynamic treatment regime is a sequence of decision rules, each mapping a patient's observed history to the set of available, feasible treatment...
