Covid-19: automatic detection from X-ray images utilizing transfer learning with convolutional neural networks.

Physical and engineering sciences in medicine
In this study, a dataset of X-ray images from patients with common bacterial pneumonia, confirmed Covid-19 disease, and normal incidents, was utilized for the automatic detection of the Coronavirus disease. The aim of the study is to evaluate the per...

Macrolide combination therapy for patients hospitalised with community-acquired pneumonia? An individualised approach supported by machine learning.

The European respiratory journal
BACKGROUND: The role of macrolide/β-lactam combination therapy in community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) of moderate severity is a matter of debate. Macrolides expand the coverage to atypical pathogens and attenuate pulmonary inflammation, but have been ...

Mutant selection window of four quinolone antibiotics against clinical isolates of Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae and Moraxella catarrhalis.

Journal of infection and chemotherapy : official journal of the Japan Society of Chemotherapy
Community-acquired pneumonia and otitis media are caused by several bacterial species, including Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, and Moraxella catarrhalis. For the treatment of these diseases, various quinolones are frequently used....

Machine learning-based approaches for distinguishing viral and bacterial pneumonia in paediatrics: A scoping review.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Pneumonia is the leading cause of hospitalisation and mortality among children under five, particularly in low-resource settings. Accurate differentiation between viral and bacterial pneumonia is essential for guiding approp...

Deep Learning Models for CT Segmentation of Invasive Pulmonary Aspergillosis, Mucormycosis, Bacterial Pneumonia and Tuberculosis: A Multicentre Study.

Mycoses
BACKGROUND: The differential diagnosis of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA), pulmonary mucormycosis (PM), bacterial pneumonia (BP) and pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) are challenging due to overlapping clinical and imaging features. Manual CT lesio...

Nan fang yi ke da xue xue bao = Journal of Southern Medical University
OBJECTIVE: To predict the risk of in-hospital death in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) complicated by lung infections using interpretable machine learning.

A Fresh Shine onCystic Fibrosis Inhalation Therapy: Antimicrobial Synergy of Polymyxin B in Combination with Silver Nanoparticles.

Journal of biomedical nanotechnology
This in vitro study aimed to investigate the synergistic antibacterial activity of polymyxin B in combination with 2 nm silver nanoparticles (NPs) against Gram-negative pathogens commonly isolated from the cystic fibrosis (CF) lung. The in vitro syne...
