The current standard for evaluating axillary nodal burden in clinically node negative breast cancer is sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB). However, the accuracy of SLNB to detect nodal stage N2-3 remains debatable. Nomograms can help the decision-mak...
We developed a hybrid deep learning model (HDLM) algorithm that quantitatively predicts macular ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer (mGCIPL) thickness from red-free retinal nerve fiber layer photographs (RNFLPs). A total of 789 pairs of RNFLPs and sp...

Highlighting the risk of biases in radiomics-based models will help improve their quality and increase usage as decision support systems in the clinic. In this study we use machine learning-based methods to identify the presence of volume-confounding...
During the last two decades, human has increased his knowledge about the role of miRNAs and their target genes in plant stress response. Biotic and abiotic stresses result in simultaneous tissue-specific up/down-regulation of several miRNAs. In this ...
Determining intrinsic number of clusters in a multidimensional dataset is a commonly encountered problem in exploratory data analysis. Unsupervised clustering algorithms often rely on specification of cluster number as an input parameter. However, th...
'Asthma' is a complex disease that encapsulates a heterogeneous group of phenotypes and endotypes. Research to understand these phenotypes has previously been based on longitudinal wheeze patterns or hypothesis-driven observational criteria. The aim ...
BACKGROUND: To finish an endurance race, athletes perform a vigorous effort that induces the release of cardiac damage markers. There are several factors that can affect the total number of these markers, so the aim of this review was to analyze the ...
Integrating dynamic systems modeling and machine learning generates an exploratory nonlinear solution for analyzing dynamical systems-based data. Applying dynamical systems theory to the machine learning solution further provides a pathway to interpr...
The general public's attitudes, demands, and expectations regarding medical AI could provide guidance for the future development of medical AI to satisfy the increasing needs of doctors and patients. The objective of this study is to investigate publ...
Few studies have addressed the predictive value of arterial stiffness determined by pulse wave velocity (PWV) in a high-risk population with no prevalent cardiovascular disease and with obesity, hypertension, hyperglycemia, and preserved kidney funct...
