Deep Learning-Based Classification of Macrofungi: Comparative Analysis of Advanced Models for Accurate Fungi Identification.

This study focuses on the classification of six different macrofungi species using advanced deep learning techniques. Fungi species, such as , , , , and were chosen based on their ecological importance and distinct morphological characteristics. The research employed 5 different machine learning techniques and 12 deep learning models, including DenseNet121, MobileNetV2, ConvNeXt, EfficientNet, and swin transformers, to evaluate their performance in identifying fungi from images.

Comparative Analysis of Deep Learning Methods on CT Images for Lung Cancer Specification.

Background: Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide, ranking first in men and second in women. Due to its aggressive nature, early detection and accurate localization of tumors are crucial for improving patient outcomes. This study aims to apply advanced deep learning techniques to identify lung cancer in its early stages using CT scan images.

Clinical experience with ceftazidime/avibactam for the treatment of extensively drug-resistant or pandrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae in neonates and children.

Purpose: Klebsiella pneumoniae is a significant cause of healthcare-associated infections, resulting in high morbidity and mortality rates due to limited treatment options. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the treatment outcomes and the safety of Ceftazidime-avibactam in infections caused by extensively drug-resistant or pandrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae in pediatric patients.

Methods: This study included pediatric patients who received ceftazidime-avibactam treatment due to extensively drug-resistant or pandrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae infections, monitored in the pediatric intensive care, neonatal intensive care, and pediatric wards of Cukurova University Faculty of Medicine between 2022 and 2023.

Therapeutic plasma exchange in critically ill children: 18-year experience of a tertiary care paediatric intensive care unit.

Background: Therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) has been used as a primary or supportive treatment in critical paediatric patients during the clinical course of many diseases.

Objectives: The objective of this study was to characterise the indications, complications, and outcomes of critically ill children who received TPE in a tertiary referral paediatric intensive care unit (PICU).

Methods: This retrospective observational study was conducted in a tertiary referral 13-bed PICU of a university hospital.
