To measure gamma and alpha brain wave activity as a measurement of concentration and stress levels during surgical simulator performance of laparoscopic tasks to determine if expert surgeons have different brain activity patterns compared with intermediate and novice surgeons.

After obtaining Institutional Review Board approval, 1st and…[Read more]

This study sought to develop DL models capable of comprehensively quantifying left and right ventricular dysfunction from ECG data in a large, diverse population.

Rapid evaluation of left and right ventricular function using deep learning (DL) on electrocardiograms (ECGs) can assist diagnostic workflow. However, DL tools to estimate right-…[Read more]

23; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.27-3.90], and a higher proportion of mRS score 3-6 (odds ratio (OR), 1.54; 95% CI, 1.26-1.90) and mRS score 2-6 (OR, 1.56; 95% CI, 1.32-1.84) at 3 months. We also observed a J-shaped association between LDH and risk of each outcome. Consistent results were found at 1 year.

Higher LDH levels are…[Read more]

However, the pooled analyses of longitudinal studies showed no significant differences from pre-pandemic levels to the first lockdown phase in Body Mass Index and ED symptoms, whereas only few studies suggested increased distress, particularly among individuals with anorexia nervosa.

The majority of individuals with EDs and obesity…[Read more]

ins and V.exp were 0.94 (95% CI 0.89-0.97, p<0.001) and 0.88 (95% CI 0.78-0.94, p<0.001), respectively. The correlation coefficient between V.ins and FVC was 0.86 (95% CI 0.79-0.90, p<0.001). A multilinear model for predicting FVC was developed using V.ins, V.exp, age, sex, and body mass index as predictor variables, wherein the adjusted…[Read more]
