Optical techniques, such as functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), contain high potential for the development of non-invasive wearable systems for evaluating cerebral vascular condition in aging, due to their portability and ability to monitor real-time changes in cerebral hemodynamics. In this study, thirty-six healthy adults were measured by single channel fNIRS to explore differences between two age groups using machine learning (ML). The subjects, measured during functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) at Oulu University Hospital, were divided into young (age ≤ 32) and elderly (age ≥ 57) groups.

Accurately identifying and discriminating between different brain states is a major emphasis of functional brain imaging research. Various machine learning techniques play an important role in this regard. However, when working with a small number of study participants, the lack of sufficient data and achieving meaningful classification results remain a challenge.

Background/objectives: Cardiac rhabdomyoma (CR), the most frequently occurring fetal cardiac tumor, is often an early marker of tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). This study evaluates outcomes of fetuses with prenatally diagnosed cardiac tumors managed at a single tertiary center.
Methods: Medical records of fetuses diagnosed with cardiac tumors between 2009 and 2024 were retrospectively reviewed.

Background: This study aimed to explore the risk factors for early intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) in extremely low birth weight infants (ELBWIs) to provide guidance for early intervention, thereby improving survival rates and quality of life for these vulnerable infants.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on 205 ELBWIs admitted to the Women and Children's Medical Center of Guangzhou Medical University from January 2019 to December 2023. Standard head ultrasound screening (HUS) was used to assess the presence and severity of IVH on days 1-3 and 5-7 post-birth.

Background: The role of maternal cardiac and hemodynamic assessment during normal and complicated pregnancies has gained attention during the last few years. Some researchers suggested that the manifestation of complications in pregnancy suffering from impaired placentation is mainly driven by pre-existing cardiac changes, identifiable at an early stage by echocardiographic and hemodynamic assessment. It is therefore of great importance to determine the link between placental perfusion and maternal cardiac function and hemodynamics.
