BACKGROUND: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is often concomitant with sleep-disordered breathing (SDB), which can cause adverse cardiovascular events. Although an appropriate approach to SDB prevents cardiac remodelling, detection of concomitant SD...
This study aimed to establish a machine learning (ML) model for predicting hepatic metastasis in esophageal cancer. We retrospectively analyzed patients with esophageal cancer recorded in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) databas...

The need for the identification of risk factors associated to COVID-19 disease severity remains urgent. Patients' care and resource allocation can be potentially different and are defined based on the current classification of disease severity. This ...
BACKGROUND: The current scores used to help diagnose acute appendicitis have a "gray" zone in which the diagnosis is usually inconclusive. Furthermore, the universal use of CT scanning is limited because of the radiation hazards and/or limited resour...
BACKGROUND: The IDENTIFY study developed a model to predict urinary tract cancer using patient characteristics from a large multicentre, international cohort of patients referred with haematuria. In addition to calculating an individual's cancer risk...
PURPOSE: This study aimed to predict early graft failure (GF) in patients who underwent Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty based on donor characteristics.

BACKGROUND: Colorectal cancer has a high incidence and mortality rate due to a low rate of early diagnosis. Therefore, efficient diagnostic methods are urgently needed.
Accurate prediction of difficult direct laryngoscopy (DDL) is essential to ensure optimal airway management and patient safety. The present study proposed an AI model that would accurately predict DDL using a small number of bedside pictures of the p...
BACKGROUND/AIMS: To assess the performance of deep-learning (DL) models for prediction of conversion to normal-tension glaucoma (NTG) in normotensive glaucoma suspect (GS) patients.
BACKGROUND: Ultrasound imaging is suitable for detecting and diagnosing ophthalmic abnormalities. However, a shortage of experienced sonographers and ophthalmologists remains a problem. This study aims to develop a multibranch transformer network (MB...
