We develop various AI models to predict hospitalization on a large (over 110k) cohort of COVID-19 positive-tested US patients, sourced from March 2020 to February 2021. Models range from Random Forest to Neural Network (NN) and Time Convolutional NN, where combination of the data modalities (tabular and time dependent) are performed at different stages (early vs. model fusion).

Applying state-of-the-art machine learning and natural language processing on approximately one million of teleconsultation records, we developed a triage system, now certified and in use at the largest European telemedicine provider. The system evaluates care alternatives through interactions with patients via a mobile application. Reasoning on an initial set of provided symptoms, the triage application generates AI-powered, personalized questions to better characterize the problem and recommends the most appropriate point of care and time frame for a consultation.

There are between 6,000 - 7,000 known rare diseases today. Identifying and diagnosing a patient with rare disease is time consuming, cumbersome, cost intensive and requires resources generally available only at large hospital centers. Furthermore, most medical doctors, especially general practitioners, will likely only see one patient with a rare disease if at all.

We derive predictions for the Dirac phase [Formula: see text] present in the [Formula: see text] unitary neutrino mixing matrix [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are [Formula: see text] unitary matrices which arise from the diagonalisation, respectively, of the charged lepton and the neutrino mass matrices. We consider forms of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] allowing us to express [Formula: see text] as a function of three neutrino mixing angles, present in , and the angles contained in [Formula: see text]. We consider several forms of [Formula: see text] determined by, or associated with, symmetries, tri-bimaximal, bimaximal, etc.

Sepsis is defined as systemic inflammation caused by infection. The membrane bound CD14 (mCD14) or the soluble form (sCD14) play a crucial role facing Gram-negative and Gram-positive sepsis since they are pattern recognition receptors of the innate immune response enabling cells to produce inflammatory cytokines against bacterial infections. A -260C>T single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) was detected in the promoter modulating the CD14 gene expression.
