Implications of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) in colonic polyps remain elusive. A prospective study was conducted with 188 consecutive subjects who underwent colonoscopy at a tertiary referral center. Biochemical parameters, serum PAI-1 l...
PURPOSE: To develop and test the performance of a deep learning-based algorithm for glaucomatous disc identification using monoscopic fundus photographs.
Identifying selective sweeps in populations that have complex demographic histories remains a difficult problem in population genetics. We previously introduced a supervised machine learning approach, S/HIC, for finding both hard and soft selective s...
BACKGROUND: Gene-expression companion diagnostic tests, such as the Oncotype DX test, assess the risk of early stage Estrogen receptor (ER) positive (+) breast cancers, and guide clinicians in the decision of whether or not to use chemotherapy. Howev...

BACKGROUND: In the time since the launch of a nationwide general health check-up and instruction program in Japan in 2008, interest in the formulation of an effective and efficient strategy to improve the participation rate has been growing. The aim ...
BACKGROUND: A trainer for online laparoscopic surgical skills assessment based on the performance of experts and nonexperts is presented. The system uses computer vision, augmented reality, and artificial intelligence algorithms, implemented into a R...
Developing an accurate and reliable injury predictor is central to the biomechanical studies of traumatic brain injury. State-of-the-art efforts continue to rely on empirical, scalar metrics based on kinematics or model-estimated tissue responses exp...
OBJECTIVE: In this paper, we aim to investigate the effect of computer-aided triage system, which is implemented for the health checkup of lung lesions involving tens of thousands of chest X-rays (CXRs) that are required for diagnosis. Therefore, hig...

BACKGROUND: A significant number of variables are obtained when characterizing patients suspected with myocardial ischemia or at risk of MACE. Guidelines typically use a handful of them to support further workup or therapeutic decisions. However, it ...
In this study, we describe the development of new machine learning models to predict inhibition of the enzyme 3-dehydroquinate dehydratase (DHQD). This enzyme is the third step of the shikimate pathway and is responsible for the synthesis of chorisma...
