  • Machine learning can work well, but it often struggles to make accurate predictions on new data, which is called out-of-sample generalizability.
  • To solve this problem, researchers are using a method called Federated ML that allows computers to share information about how well they're learning without actually sharing the data itself.
  • In a big study with 71 locations around the world, scientists created a model to help detect brain tumors more accurately, showing a significant improvement compared to older methods and hoping to help with rare illnesses and data sharing in healthcare.

The COVID-19 pandemic remains an evolving disease posing a challenge of incomplete understanding escalated by random atypical clinical presentations. Numerous challenges still exist with accessibility and availability of standard COVID-19 viral testing using real-time Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR), in low- and middle-income countries, especially in several hospital settings. The clinical information of three select patients at a major health facility in Southwestern Nigeria with unusual COVID-19 clinical presentation and clinical management dilemma related to challenges with COVID-19 viral laboratory testing, were retrospectively reviewed.
