INTRODUCTION: Asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Despite all available diagnostics and treatments, these conditions pose a significant individual, economic and social burde...
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Ex-smokers without spirometry or CT evidence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) but with mildly abnormal diffusing capacity of the lungs for carbon monoxide (DL) are at higher risk of developing COPD. It remains...
OBJECTIVES: To quantify regional manifestations related to COPD as anomalies from a modeled distribution of normal-appearing lung on chest CT using a deep learning (DL) approach, and to assess its potential to predict disease severity.

The automatic disease diagnosis utilizing clinical data has been suffering from the issues of feature sparse and high probability of missing values. Since the graph neural network is a effective tool to model the structural information and infer the ...
QUESTION: Severe asthma and COPD exacerbations requiring hospitalization are linked to increased disease morbidity and healthcare costs. We sought to identify Electronic Health Record (EHR) features of severe asthma and COPD exacerbations and evaluat...
OBJECTIVES: Parametric response mapping (PRM) enables the evaluation of small airway disease (SAD) at the voxel level, but requires both inspiratory and expiratory chest CT scans. We hypothesize that deep learning PRM from inspiratory chest CT scans ...

Acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) is the exacerbation of a range of respiratory symptoms during the stable phase of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). AECOPD is thus a dangerous stage and key event in th...
BACKGROUND: Pneumonia-related hospitalization may be associated with advanced skeletal muscle loss due to aging (i.e., sarcopenia) or chronic illnesses (i.e., cachexia). Early detection of muscle loss may now be feasible using deep-learning algorithm...
