BACKGROUND: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is often diagnosed using gadoxetate disodium-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (EOB-MRI). Standardized reporting according to the Liver Imaging Reporting and Data System (LI-RADS) can improve Gd-MRI interp...
BACKGROUND: In hospitalized patients, inadequate antibiotic dosage leading to bacterial resistance and increased antimicrobial use intensity due to overexposure to antibiotics are common problems. In the present study, we constructed a machine learni...
Cervical spinal cord injury (cSCI) poses a significant challenge due to the unpredictable nature of recovery, which ranges from mild paralysis to severe long-term disability. Accurate prognostic models are crucial for guiding treatment and rehabilita...
BACKGROUND: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global health concern characterised by irreversible renal damage that is often assessed using invasive renal biopsy. Accurate evaluation of interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy (IFTA) is crucial for ...
OBJECTIVES: Considering Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) network approaches have shown promising image classification performance, the aim of this study was to compare the performance of novel Convolutional Neural ...
BACKGROUND: Accurate prediction of pathologic complete response (pCR) following neoadjuvant immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy (nICT) is crucial for tailoring patient care in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). This study aimed to develo...
PURPOSE: For patients suffering from differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC), several clinical, laboratory, and pathological features (including patient age, tumor size, extrathyroidal extension, or serum thyroglobulin levels) are currently used to ident...
BACKGROUND: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a heterogeneous condition with varying response to prone positioning. We aimed to identify subphenotypes of ARDS patients undergoing prone positioning using machine learning and assess their a...
Hypothyroidism, a common endocrine disorder, has a high incidence in women and increases with age. Levothyroxine (LT4) is the standard therapy; however, achieving clinical and biochemical euthyroidism is challenging. Therefore, developing an accurate...
