Divergent biological pathways distinguish community-acquired pneumonia from COVID-19 despite similar plasma cytokine profiles.

Respiratory research
BACKGROUND: Pulmonary infections, ranging from mild respiratory issues to severe multiorgan failure, pose a major global health threat. The immune response in community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) and COVID-19 influences disease severity and outcomes, b...

Differentiation of COVID-19 from other types of viral pneumonia and severity scoring on baseline chest radiographs: Comparison of deep learning with multi-reader evaluation.

PloS one
Chest X-ray (CXR) imaging plays a pivotal role in the diagnosis and prognosis of viral pneumonia. However, distinguishing COVID-19 CXRs from other viral infections remains challenging due to highly similar radiographic features. Most existing deep le...

A Machine Learning Approach to Differentiate Cold and Hot Syndrome in Viral Pneumonia Integrating Traditional Chinese Medicine and Modern Medicine: Machine Learning Model Development and Validation.

JMIR medical informatics
BACKGROUND: Syndrome differentiation in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is an ancient principle that guides disease diagnosis and treatment. Among these, the cold and hot syndromes play a crucial role in identifying the nature of the disease and g...

Automated classification of chest X-rays: a deep learning approach with attention mechanisms.

BMC medical imaging
BACKGROUND: Pulmonary diseases such as COVID-19 and pneumonia, are life-threatening conditions, that require prompt and accurate diagnosis for effective treatment. Chest X-ray (CXR) has become the most common alternative method for detecting pulmonar...

Leveraging deep-learning and unconventional data for real-time surveillance, forecasting, and early warning of respiratory pathogens outbreak.

Artificial intelligence in medicine
BACKGROUND: Controlling re-emerging outbreaks such as COVID-19 is a critical concern to global health. Disease forecasting solutions are extremely beneficial to public health emergency management. This work aims to design and deploy a framework for r...

Classification of CT scan and X-ray dataset based on deep learning and particle swarm optimization.

PloS one
In 2019, the novel coronavirus swept the world, exposing the monitoring and early warning problems of the medical system. Computer-aided diagnosis models based on deep learning have good universality and can well alleviate these problems. However, tr...

Comparative study of DCNN and image processing based classification of chest X-rays for identification of COVID-19 patients using fine-tuning.

Journal of medical engineering & technology
The conventional detection of COVID-19 by evaluating the CT scan images is tiresome, often experiences high inter-observer variability and uncertainty issues. This work proposes the automatic detection and classification of COVID-19 by analysing the ...

Leveraging deep transfer learning and explainable AI for accurate COVID-19 diagnosis: Insights from a multi-national chest CT scan study.

Computers in biology and medicine
The COVID-19 pandemic has emerged as a global health crisis, impacting millions worldwide. Although chest computed tomography (CT) scan images are pivotal in diagnosing COVID-19, their manual interpretation by radiologists is time-consuming and poten...

Lightweight convolutional neural network for chest X-ray images classification.

Scientific reports
In this study, we developed a lightweight and rapid convolutional neural network (CNN) architecture for chest X-ray images; it primarily consists of a redesigned feature extraction (FE) module and multiscale feature (MF) module and validated using pu...

CONSTRUCTING A DIAGNOSTIC PREDICTION MODEL TO ESTIMATE THE SEVERE RESPIRATORY SYNCYTIAL VIRUS PNEUMONIA IN CHILDREN BASED ON MACHINE LEARNING.

Shock (Augusta, Ga.)
Background : Severe respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) pneumonia is a leading cause of hospitalization and morbidity in infants and young children. Early identification of severe RSV pneumonia is crucial for timely and effective treatment by pediatric...
