Artificial neural network and falls in community-dwellers: a new approach to identify the risk of recurrent falling?

Journal of the American Medical Directors Association
BACKGROUND: Identification of the risk of recurrent falls is complex in older adults. The aim of this study was to examine the efficiency of 3 artificial neural networks (ANNs: multilayer perceptron [MLP], modified MLP, and neuroevolution of augmenti...

Sex-specific body fat distribution predicts cardiovascular ageing.

European heart journal
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Cardiovascular ageing is a progressive loss of physiological reserve, modified by environmental and genetic risk factors, that contributes to multi-morbidity due to accumulated damage across diverse cell types, tissues, and organ...

Ecological Network Analysis: Utilizing Machine Learning to Unravel the Effects of Multilevel Pathways of Moderate⁃to⁃Vigorous Physical Activity Facilitators Among School Children.

Research quarterly for exercise and sport
The objective of the present study was to ascertain whether the association between moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity (MVPA) levels and individual, interpersonal, organizational, and environmental factors among school children is influ...

Sex-specific prognostic value of automated epicardial adipose tissue quantification on serial lung cancer screening chest computed tomography.

European heart journal. Cardiovascular Imaging
AIMS: Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is a metabolically active fat depot associated with coronary atherosclerosis and cardiovascular (CV) risk. While EAT is a known prognostic marker in lung cancer screening, its sex-specific prognostic value remain...

Moving past multidisciplinary discussions and Gender-Age-Physiology model: precision medicine through biological phenotyping in interstitial lung disease.

Current opinion in pulmonary medicine
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Interstitial lung disease (ILD) presents significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges due to underlying biological heterogeneity and variable clinical course. Traditional diagnostic and prognostic tools are limited in their ab...

Age and sex-specific differences of the intrafemoral and intratibial morphology using the Citak classification in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty.

Knee surgery, sports traumatology, arthroscopy : official journal of the ESSKA
PURPOSE: Unlike established knee phenotype classifications, the recently introduced Citak classifications describe the intrafemoral and intratibial knee morphology. The aim of this study was to evaluate the distribution of Citak types A, B and C of t...

Sepsis criteria and kidney function: eliminating sex, age and economic status biases.

Nature reviews. Nephrology
The kidney is a target organ for the dysregulated host response to infection that defines sepsis, and acute kidney injury (AKI) is often an early manifestation of this response. Current sepsis criteria for adults (Sepsis-3) continue to include outmod...

Representations of skin tone and sex in dermatology by generative artificial intelligence: a comparative study.

Clinical and experimental dermatology
With generative artificial intelligence (AI) demonstrating potential in dermatological education, assessment of skin tone diversity is imperative to ensure comprehensive patient care. Evaluating DALL·E 3, Midjourney and DreamStudio Beta, we generated...

Evaluating Algorithmic Approaches to Uncover Racial, Ethnic, and Gender Disparities in Scientific Authorship.

American journal of public health
To explore the capabilities of race/ethnicity and gender prediction algorithms in uncovering patterns of authorship distribution in scientific paper submissions to a major peer-reviewed scientific journal (), we analyzed 17 667 manuscript submissions...

Determining mosquito age using surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy and artificial neural networks: insights into the influence of origin and sex.

Parasites & vectors
BACKGROUND: Mosquito-borne diseases, such as malaria, dengue, and Zika, continue to pose significant threats to global health, resulting in millions of cases and thousands of deaths each year. Notably, only older mosquitoes can transmit these disease...
