Early detection of pancreatic cancer (PC) remains challenging largely due to the low population incidence and few known risk factors. However, screening in at-risk populations and detection of early cancer has the potential to significantly alter sur...
BACKGROUND: Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) remain the leading cause of morbidity and mortality globally. Traditional risk models, primarily based on established risk factors, often lack the precision needed to accurately predict new-onset major advers...
Work-related injuries from overexertion, particularly lifting, are a major concern in occupational safety. Traditional assessment tools, such as the Revised NIOSH Lifting Equation (RNLE), require significant training and practice for deployment. This...
Contact with specific chemicals often results in corrosive and irritative responses in the eyes and skin, playing a pivotal role in assessing the potential hazards of personal care products, cosmetics, and industrial chemicals to human health. While ...
PURPOSE: This study aims to identify and rank the key risk factors associated with the Zika virus by leveraging a novel multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) framework based on type-2 heptagonal fuzzy sets. By integrating advanced aggregation operato...
BACKGROUND: While the Cardiometabolic Index (CMI) serves as a novel marker for assessing adipose tissue distribution and metabolic function, its prognostic utility for cardiovascular disease (CVD) events remains incompletely understood. This investig...
The prevalence of hearing loss (HL) has emerged as an escalating public health concern globally. The objective of this study was to leverage data from the National Health and Nutritional Examination Survey (NHANES) to develop an interpretable predict...
BACKGROUND: Major bleeding is a severe complication in critically ill medical patients, resulting in significant morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs. This study aims to assess the incidence and risk factors for major bleeding in hospitalised m...
OBJECTIVE: The study developed an intelligent online evaluation system for mediolateral episiotomy, which incorporated machine learning algorithms and integrated maternal physiological data collected during delivery.
BACKGROUND: Osteoporosis has become a significant public health concern that necessitates the application of appropriate techniques to calculate disease risk. Traditional methods, such as logistic regression,have been widely used to identify risk fac...
