Prediction of implantation after blastocyst transfer in in vitro fertilization: a machine-learning perspective.

Fertility and sterility
OBJECTIVE: To develop a random forest model (RFM) to predict implantation potential of a transferred embryo and compare it with a multivariate logistic regression model (MvLRM), based on data from a large cohort including in vitro fertilization (IVF)...

Intensity-modulated radiation therapy of anal squamous cell carcinoma: Relationship between delineation quality and regional recurrence.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) is currently indicated to treat anal squamous cell carcinoma (ASCC). Conformal dose delivery and steep dose gradients may cause marginal misses. We analyzed patterns of locoregional...

Predictors of Nodal and Metastatic Failure in Early Stage Non-small-cell Lung Cancer After Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy.

Clinical lung cancer
INTRODUCTION/BACKGROUND: Many patients with early stage non-small-cell lung cancer (ES-NSCLC) undergoing stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) develop metastases, which is associated with poor outcomes. We sought to identify factors predictive o...

Machine learning methodologies versus cardiovascular risk scores, in predicting disease risk.

BMC medical research methodology
BACKGROUND: The use of Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) risk estimation scores in primary prevention has long been established. However, their performance still remains a matter of concern. The aim of this study was to explore the potential of using ML m...

A machine learning approach to investigate potential risk factors for gastroschisis in California.

Birth defects research
BACKGROUND: To generate new leads about risk factors for gastroschisis, a birth defect that has been increasing in prevalence over time, we performed an untargeted data mining statistical approach.

Prediction and evaluation of the severity of acute respiratory distress syndrome following severe acute pancreatitis using an artificial neural network algorithm model.

HPB : the official journal of the International Hepato Pancreato Biliary Association
BACKGROUND: To predict the risk and severity of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) following severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) by artificial neural networks (ANNs) model.

Constipation and risk of death and cardiovascular events.

Atherosclerosis
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Constipation is one of the most frequent symptoms encountered in daily clinical practice and is implicated in the development of atherosclerosis, potentially through altered gut microbiota. However, little is known about its asso...

Fibroblast growth factor 21 association with subclinical atherosclerosis and arterial stiffness in type 2 diabetes.

Diabetes & metabolic syndrome
AIM: To evaluate the association of serum FGF21 with subclinical atherosclerosis and pulse wave velocity, a marker of arterial stiffness, in type 2 diabetes Egyptian patients.

Analysis of Kidney Donation and Its Relationship With Graft Failure of the Recipient at 1 Year.

Transplantation proceedings
INTRODUCTION: Currently, the shortage of organs available for kidney transplantation and a change in donors' and recipients' profiles (elderly, with cardiovascular risk, donors after cardiac death), it is becoming necessary to assess grafts from expa...
