Learning a Severity Score for Sepsis: A Novel Approach based on Clinical Comparisons.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
Sepsis is one of the leading causes of death in the United States. Early administration of treatment has been shown to decrease sepsis-related mortality and morbidity. Existing scoring systems such as the Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluatio...

A hybrid manifold learning algorithm for the diagnosis and prognostication of Alzheimer's disease.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
The diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) requires a variety of medical tests, which leads to huge amounts of multivariate heterogeneous data. Such data are difficult to compare, visualize, and analyze due to the heterogeneous nature of medical tests...

Influence of protein kinase C (PKC) on the prognosis of diabetic nephropathy patients.

International journal of clinical and experimental pathology
AIMS: To investigate the association between protein kinase C (PKC) and the prognosis of patients with diabetic nephropathy (DN).

Prediction of delayed graft function after kidney transplantation: comparison between logistic regression and machine learning methods.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
BACKGROUND: Predictive models for delayed graft function (DGF) after kidney transplantation are usually developed using logistic regression. We want to evaluate the value of machine learning methods in the prediction of DGF.

Detecting Lung Diseases from Exhaled Aerosols: Non-Invasive Lung Diagnosis Using Fractal Analysis and SVM Classification.

PloS one
BACKGROUND: Each lung structure exhales a unique pattern of aerosols, which can be used to detect and monitor lung diseases non-invasively. The challenges are accurately interpreting the exhaled aerosol fingerprints and quantitatively correlating the...

Survival rate comparisons amongst cervical cancer patients treated with an open, robotic-assisted or laparoscopic radical hysterectomy: A five year experience.

Surgical oncology
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this retrospective study was to assess the 5-year survival outcomes of cervical cancer patients who underwent an, open radical hysterectomy (ORH), robotic-assisted radical hysterectomy (RRH) or laparoscopic radical hysterec...

Finding Risk Groups by Optimizing Artificial Neural Networks on the Area under the Survival Curve Using Genetic Algorithms.

PloS one
We investigate a new method to place patients into risk groups in censored survival data. Properties such as median survival time, and end survival rate, are implicitly improved by optimizing the area under the survival curve. Artificial neural netwo...

Test-retest reliability of KINARM robot sensorimotor and cognitive assessment: in pediatric ice hockey players.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Better diagnostic and prognostic tools are needed to address issues related to early diagnosis and management of concussion across the continuum of aging but particularly in children and adolescents. The purpose of the current study was t...
