Deep learning to automate Brasfield chest radiographic scoring for cystic fibrosis.

Journal of cystic fibrosis : official journal of the European Cystic Fibrosis Society
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to evaluate the hypothesis that a deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) model could facilitate automated Brasfield scoring of chest radiographs (CXRs) for patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), performing similar...

Importance of coding co-morbidities for APR-DRG assignment: Focus on cardiovascular and respiratory diseases.

Health information management : journal of the Health Information Management Association of Australia
BACKGROUND: The All Patient-Refined Diagnosis-Related Groups (APR-DRGs) system has adjusted the basic DRG structure by incorporating four severity of illness (SOI) levels, which are used for determining hospital payment. A comprehensive report of all...

An ensemble learning method for asthma control level detection with leveraging medical knowledge-based classifier and supervised learning.

Journal of medical systems
Approximately 300 million people are afflicted with asthma around the world, with the estimated death rate of 250,000 cases, indicating the significance of this disease. If not treated, it can turn into a serious public health problem. The best metho...

Machine learning for phenotyping opioid overdose events.

Journal of biomedical informatics
OBJECTIVE: To develop machine learning models for classifying the severity of opioid overdose events from clinical data.

Evaluation of a machine learning algorithm for up to 48-hour advance prediction of sepsis using six vital signs.

Computers in biology and medicine
OBJECTIVE: Sepsis remains a costly and prevalent syndrome in hospitals; however, machine learning systems can increase timely sepsis detection using electronic health records. This study validates a gradient boosted ensemble machine learning tool for...

Novel pediatric-automated respiratory score using physiologic data and machine learning in asthma.

Pediatric pulmonology
OBJECTIVES: Manual clinical scoring systems are the current standard used for acute asthma clinical care pathways. No automated system exists that assesses disease severity, time course, and treatment impact in pediatric acute severe asthma exacerbat...

Advanced atherosclerosis imaging by CT: Radiomics, machine learning and deep learning.

Journal of cardiovascular computed tomography
In the last decade, technical advances in the field of medical imaging significantly improved and broadened the application of coronary CT angiography (CCTA) for the non-invasive assessment of coronary artery disease. Recently, similar breakthroughs ...

Refining humane endpoints in mouse models of disease by systematic review and machine learning-based endpoint definition.

ALTEX
Ideally, humane endpoints allow for early termination of experiments by minimizing an animal's discomfort, distress and pain, while ensuring that scientific objectives are reached. Yet, lack of commonly agreed methodology and heterogeneity of cut-off...

A machine learning approach to knee osteoarthritis phenotyping: data from the FNIH Biomarkers Consortium.

Osteoarthritis and cartilage
OBJECTIVE: Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a heterogeneous condition representing a variety of potentially distinct phenotypes. The purpose of this study was to apply innovative machine learning approaches to KOA phenotyping in order to define progressi...

Predicting daily outcomes in acetaminophen-induced acute liver failure patients with machine learning techniques.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE: Assessing prognosis for acetaminophen-induced acute liver failure (APAP-ALF) patients during the first week of hospitalization often presents significant challenges. Current models such as the King's College Criteria (KCC) and t...
