Effectiveness of Radiofrequency Ablation in the Treatment of Painful Osseous Metastases: A Correlation Meta-Analysis with Machine Learning Cluster Identification.

Journal of vascular and interventional radiology : JVIR
A systematic review and meta-analysis of pain response after radiofrequency (RF) ablation over time for osseous metastases was conducted in 2019. Analysis used a random-effects model with GOSH plots and meta-regression. Fourteen studies comprising 42...

Technology acceptance and perceptions of robotic assistive devices by older adults - implications for exoskeleton design.

Disability and rehabilitation. Assistive technology
AIM: This study explored and interpreted insights expressed by a cohort of older adults related to their life experience, their experiences using or assisting someone with assistive devices, and their perceptions of robots and robotic assistive devic...

Predicting clinically significant motor function improvement after contemporary task-oriented interventions using machine learning approaches.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Accurate prediction of motor recovery after stroke is critical for treatment decisions and planning. Machine learning has been proposed to be a promising technique for outcome prediction because of its high accuracy and ability to process...

Effects on sleep from group activity with a robotic seal for nursing home residents with dementia: a cluster randomized controlled trial.

International psychogeriatrics
OBJECTIVES: Sleep disturbances are common in people with dementia and increase with the severity of the disease. Sleep disturbances are complex and caused by several factors and are difficult to treat. There is a need for more robust and systematic s...

Are we ready for artificial intelligence health monitoring in elder care?

BMC geriatrics
BACKGROUND: The world is experiencing a dramatic increase in the aging population, challenging the sustainability of traditional care models that have relied on in-person monitoring. This debate article discusses whether artificial intelligence healt...

Novel lateral transfer assist robot decreases the difficulty of transfer in post-stroke hemiparesis patients: a pilot study.

Disability and rehabilitation. Assistive technology
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to clarify whether the novel lateral transfer assist robot facilitates easier transfers compared with a wheelchair in post-stroke hemiparesis patients.

Subsphincteric Anastomosis During Laparoscopic Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy and Its Positive Impact on Continence Recovery.

Journal of endourology
To assess the interest of a new sphincter preserving anastomosis technique for continence recovery after robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP). : We performed a monocentric single-operator study on 187 consecutive RALP. Patients w...

Monitoring behavioral symptoms of dementia using activity trackers.

Journal of biomedical informatics
Tertiary disease prevention for dementia focuses on improving the quality of life of the patient. The quality of life of people with dementia (PwD) and their caregivers is hampered by the presence of behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia ...

AutoAudio: Deep Learning for Automatic Audiogram Interpretation.

Journal of medical systems
Hearing loss is the leading human sensory system loss, and one of the leading causes for years lived with disability with significant effects on quality of life, social isolation, and overall health. Coupled with a forecast of increased hearing loss ...

Asthma Exacerbation Prediction and Risk Factor Analysis Based on a Time-Sensitive, Attentive Neural Network: Retrospective Cohort Study.

Journal of medical Internet research
BACKGROUND: Asthma exacerbation is an acute or subacute episode of progressive worsening of asthma symptoms and can have a significant impact on patients' quality of life. However, efficient methods that can help identify personalized risk factors an...
