Background: Night sweats are a condition in which an individual sweats excessively during sleep without awareness, and stops when they wake up. Prolonged episodes of night sweats might result in the depletion of trace elements and nutrients, affecting the growth and development of children.

Purpose: To investigate the relationship between sweat nights and season.

Background: Asthma is a chronic respiratory condition affecting populations worldwide, with prevalence ranging from 1-18% across different nations. Gender differences in asthma prevalence have attracted much attention.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate biomarkers of gender differences in asthma prevalence based on machine learning.

Non-invasive detection of hemoglobin (Hb) concentration is of great clinical value for health screening and intraoperative blood transfusion. However, the accuracy and stability of non-invasive detection still need to be improved to meet clinical requirement. This paper proposes a non-invasive Hb detection method using ensemble extreme learning machine (EELM) regression based on eight-wavelength PhotoPlethysmoGraphic (PPG) signals.

Background: Due to environmental pollution, changes in lifestyle, and advancements in diagnostic technology, the prevalence of asthma has been increasing over the years. Although China has made early efforts in asthma epidemiology and prevention, there is still a lack of unified and comprehensive epidemiological research within the country. The objective of the study is to determine the nationwide prevalence distribution of asthma using the Baidu Index and China's Health Statistical Yearbook.

Background: Though snoring is often regarded as a harmless condition that coincides with sound sleep, it is a sleep disorder that can be a potential indicator of more severe conditions such as sleep apnea syndrome. In the present study, we investigated the association between seasonal variations and snoring.

Method: Search index for snoring (SIS) data were obtained from Google Trends and Baidu Index.

Article Synopsis
  • Gestures are recognized using sEMG signals, which have limitations with traditional machine learning methods in terms of accuracy and stability.
  • A new method combining feature selection with ensemble extreme learning machine (EELM) was proposed to enhance recognition performance by preprocessing sEMG signals and selecting key features through a recursive algorithm.
  • The method was tested on the Ninapro DB5 dataset, achieving an average accuracy of 77.9%, outperforming other methods like decision tree, standard ELM, and random forest.

As a common disease in nervous system, epilepsy is possessed of characteristics of high incidence, suddenness and recurrent seizures. Timely prediction with corresponding rescues and treatments can be regarded as effective countermeasure to epilepsy emergencies, while most accidental injuries can thus be avoided. Currently, how to use electroencephalogram (EEG) signals to predict seizure is becoming a highlight topic in epilepsy researches.

The prevalence of infection (HPI) is still high around the world, which induces gastric diseases, such as gastric cancer (GC). The epidemiological investigation showed that there was an association between HPI and asthma (AST). Coptidis rhizoma (CR) has been reported as an herbal medicine with anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial effects.

A photoplethysmographic (PPG) signal can provide very useful information about a subject's cardiovascular status. Motion artifacts (MAs), which usually deteriorate the waveform of a PPG signal, severely obstruct its applications in the clinical diagnosis and healthcare area. To reduce the MAs from a PPG signal, in the present study we present a comb filter based signal processing method.

Background: The calculation of arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2) relies heavily on the amplitude information of the high-quality photoplethysmographic (PPG) signals, which could be contaminated by motion artifacts (MA) during monitoring.

Methods: A new method combining temporally constrained independent component analysis (cICA) and adaptive filters is presented here to extract the clean PPG signals from the MA corrupted PPG signals with the amplitude information reserved. The underlying PPG signal could be extracted from the MA contaminated PPG signals automatically by using cICA algorithm.

By combining with informatics theory, ta system model consisting of feature selection which is based on redundancy and correlation is presented to develop disease classification research with five gene data set (NCI, Lymphoma, Lung, Leukemia, Colon). The result indicates that this modeling method can not only reduce data management computation amount, but also help confirming amount of features, further more improve classification accuracy, and the application of this model has a bright foreground in fields of disease analysis and individual treatment project establishment.
