Article Synopsis
  • Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) usually go undetected until they rupture due to a lack of access to diagnostic ultrasound, prompting a study on using a deep learning (DL) algorithm for screening by novice nurses.
  • In the trial, ten novice nurses performed ultrasound scans on patients over 65 with the help of the DL algorithm and their results were compared to those done by physicians.
  • The study found that the DL-assisted scans had an 87.5% quality rate, which is quite similar to the 91.3% achieved by physicians, indicating that this technology could make AAA screening more accessible and improve early detection.

Aims: This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of cognitive impairment among patients with acute heart failure (AHF), its prognosis, and the effects of cardiac rehabilitation (CR) on these patients' outcomes.

Methods: Overall, 247 consecutive AHF patients (median age, 60 years; males, 78.5 %) were evaluated from March 2015 to May 2021.

Imbalance classification is common in scenarios like fault diagnosis, intrusion detection, and medical diagnosis, where obtaining abnormal data is difficult. This article addresses a one-class problem, implementing and refining the One-Class Nearest-Neighbor (OCNN) algorithm. The original inter-quartile range mechanism is replaced with the K-means with outlier removal (KMOR) algorithm for efficient outlier identification in the target class.

Drug-coated balloon (DCB) has emerged as an alternative therapeutic choice for in-stent restenosis (ISR) lesions. Cutting balloon angioplasty (CBA) is also a strategy utilized to treat tight stenotic lesions or ISR lesions. Few studies have focused on whether CBA plus DCB could achieve a better result in lowering the incidence of recurrent ISR.

Objective: To investigate the clinical manifestations and risk factors of the patients from developmental dysplasia of the hip(DDH) family.

Methods: Detailed epidemiology investigation, physical examination, functional movement assessment, lab test and X-ray examination were applied to the whole members of a DDH family.

Results: In the family with 9 generations and 218 persons, the incidence of DDH was 31.
