Standardized tooth numbering is crucial in dentistry for accurate recordkeeping, targeted procedures, and effective communication in both clinical and forensic contexts. However, conventional manual methods are prone to errors, time-consuming, and susceptible to inconsistencies. This study presents an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered system that uses a deep learning-based object detection approach to automate tooth numbering in bitewing radiographs (BRs).

Background: Asthma is a chronic disease that exacerbates due to various risk factors, including the patient's biosignals and environmental conditions. It is affecting on average 7% of the world population. Preventing an asthma attack is the main challenge for asthma patients, which requires keeping track of any risk factor that can cause a seizure.

Central-line-associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI) rates are a key quality metric for comparing hospital quality and safety. Manual surveillance systems for CLABSIs are time-consuming and often limited to intensive care units (ICUs). A computer-automated method of CLABSI detection can improve the validity of surveillance.

Prediction of nosocomial infections among patients is an important part of clinical surveillance programs to enable the related personnel to take preventive actions in advance. Designing a clinical surveillance program with capability of predicting nosocomial infections is a challenging task due to several reasons, including high dimensionality of medical data, heterogenous data representation, and special knowledge required to extract patterns for prediction. In this paper, we present details of six data mining methods implemented using cross industry standard process for data mining to predict central line-associated blood stream infections.
