Medical imaging techniques have improved to the point where security has become a basic requirement for all applications to ensure data security and data transmission over the internet. However, clini...
In this research, a novel deep learning-based key generation network (Deep-KEDI) is designed to produce the secure key used for decrypting and encrypting medical images....
Initially, medical images are pre-processed by adding the speckle noise using discrete ripplet transform before encryption and are removed after decryption for more security. In the Deep-KEDI model, t...
The proposed ZZ-GAN is used for secure encryption by generating three different zigzag patterns (vertical, horizontal, diagonal) of encrypted images with its key. The zigzag cipher uses an XOR operati...
According to the experiments, the Deep-KEDI model generates secret keys with an information entropy of 7.45 that is particularly suitable for securing medical images....
The present study aimed to test the relationship between the components of the Cognitive Load Theory (CLT) including memory, intrinsic and extraneous cognitive load in workplace-based learning in a cl...
This study was conducted at Shahid Sadoughi University of Medical Sciences in 2021-2023. The participants were 151 nursing students who studied their apprenticeship courses in the teaching hospitals. ...
In this study, the goodness of fit of the model based on the cognitive load theory was reported (GIF = 0.99, CFI = 0.99, RMSEA = 0.03). The results of regression analysis showed that the scores of dec...
The present results showed that the CLT in workplace-based learning has a goodness of fit with the components of memory, intrinsic cognitive load, extraneous cognitive load, and clinical decision-maki...
Esophageal cancer remains a global challenge due to late diagnoses and limited treatments. Lymph node metastasis (LNM) is crucial for prognosis, yet traditional diagnostics fall short. Integrating rad...
A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted by searching PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Embase up to October 1, 2023. The focus was on studies developing CT-based radiomics and/or DL mod...
Twelve studies were reviewed, and seven were included in the meta-analysis, most showing excellent methodological quality. Training sets revealed a pooled AUC of 87 % (95 % CI: 78 %-90 %), and interna...
Integrating CT-based radiomics and DL improves LNM detection in esophageal cancer. Including clinical data could enhance model performance. Future research should focus on multicenter studies with ind...
Emergency department (ED) overcrowding presents a global challenge that inhibits prompt care for critically ill patients. Traditional 5-level triage system that heavily rely on the judgment of the tri...
This retrospective study was conducted at a tertiary teaching hospital. Data were collected from January 2015 to October 2022. Demographic and clinical information were collected at triage. The study ...
The study analyzed 668,602 ED visits from 2015 to 2022. Among them, 278,724 visits from 2015 to 2018 were used for model training and validation, while 320,201 visits from 2019 to 2022 were for testin...
The traditional 5-level triage system often falls short, leading to under-triage of critical patients. Our models include a score-based differentiation within a triage level to offer advanced risk str...
The assessment of compound blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability poses a significant challenge in the discovery of drugs targeting the central nervous system. Conventional experimental approaches to ...
Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a severe and acute cardiovascular syndrome with high mortality among patients with autoimmune inflammatory rheumatic diseases (AIIRDs). Accurate prediction and timely interv...
In the training cohort, 60 AIIRD with PE cases and 180 age-, gender-, and disease-matched AIIRD non-PE cases were identified from 7254 AIIRD cases in Tongji Hospital from 2014 to 2022. Univariable log...
In the training cohort, 24 and 13 clinical features were selected by univariable LR and LASSO strategies, respectively. The five ML models (RF, SVM, NN, LR, and GBDT) showed promising performances, wi...
ML-based models are proven to be precise for predicting the onset of PE in patients with AIIRD exhibiting clinical suspicion of PE....

Customer churn prediction is vital for organizations to mitigate costs and foster growth. Ensemble learning models are commonly used for churn prediction. Diversity and prediction performance are two ...
Liver transplantation (LT) is offered as a cure for Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), however 15-20% develop recurrence post-transplant which tends to be aggressive. In this study, we examined the trans...
We analyzed the transcriptomic profiles of primary and recurrent tumor samples from 7 pairs of patients who underwent LT. Following differential gene expression analysis, we performed pathway enrichme...
The PI3K/Akt signaling pathway and cytokine-mediated signaling pathway were particularly activated in HCC recurrence. The recurrent tumors exhibited upregulation of an immune-escape related gene, CD27...
Our deep learning approach identified PI3K/Akt signaling as potentially regulating cytokine-mediated functions and the expression of immune escape genes, leading to alterations in the pattern of immun...
Trauma is one of the most important issues and problems considered in most countries in today's modern and industrial society. Since pre-hospital care is the first component of a trauma care system, i...
The present study was a two-group clinical before/after study in which 96 technicians were selected using a stratified random sampling method. The sample members were randomly divided into an interven...
The results of the repeated measures analysis of variance showed a significant difference between the intervention and control groups in learning skills for dealing with trauma patients (...
The results indicate that training based on the modified team-based learning method is effective for the management of trauma patients by medical emergency personnel and improves the readiness of pers...
Nottingham histological grade (NHG) is a well established prognostic factor in breast cancer histopathology but has a high inter-assessor variability with many tumours being classified as intermediate...
A total of 11,955,755 tiles from 1169 whole slide images of preoperative biopsies from 896 patients diagnosed with breast cancer in Stockholm, Sweden, were included. DeepGrade, a deep convolutional ne...
Based on preoperative biopsy images, the DeepGrade model predicted resected tumour cases of clinical grades NHG1 and NHG3 with an AUC of 0.908 (95% CI: 0.88; 0.93). Furthermore, out of the 432 resecte...
