Incorporating computer vision on smart phone photographs into screening for inflammatory arthritis: results from an Indian patient cohort.

Background: Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are increasingly used to classify medical images, few studies utilize smartphone photographs. We assessed CNNs for differentiating patients from controls and detecting joint inflammation.

Methods: We included consecutive patients with early inflammatory arthritis and healthy controls, all examined by a rheumatologist (15% by two).

Harnessing Digital Initiatives for Improved Health Outcomes in Diabetes Management: An Observational Patient Program.

Introduction: Patients with diabetes have easy access to a wide range of digital applications that may help with self-management and lower barriers; however, robust evidence of their effectiveness remains somewhat elusive. Zyla is a medical artificial intelligence (AI)-based personalized care management app that assists the treating physician in improving the standard of patient care by offering the patients comprehensive and individualized care. This preliminary evaluation of data collected through the Zyla app aims to understand the impact of diabetes disease outcomes among patients subscribed to this app.

Antenatal Diagnosis of Complete Annular Pancreas With Postnatal Surgical Follow-Up: A Case Report.

Annular pancreas is a rare congenital disorder, which is characterized by partial or complete pancreatic tissue surrounding the second part of the duodenum. It can be diagnosed antenatally on ultrasound. We are reporting a case where a double bubble sign on an antenatal scan was seen, which was followed up after the delivery of the baby, and radiography also confirmed the findings.

Headphones over the cochlear-implant sound processor to replace direct audio input.

Psychoacoustic stimulus presentation to the cochlear implant via direct audio input (DAI) is no longer possible for many newer sound processors (SPs). This study assessed the feasibility of placing circumaural headphones over the SP. Calibration spectra for loudspeaker, DAI, and headphone modalities were estimated by measuring cochlear-implant electrical output levels for tones presented to SPs on an acoustic manikin.
