Factitious disorders pose considerable problems for doctors with respect to diagnosis and therapy. Simulation, the conversion syndrome and the Muenchausen syndrome should be distinguished as individual aspects of the disease. The Muenchausen syndroms has a unfavourable prognosis, as it is difficult to diagnose, in addition to which the patients in question are not approachable for necessary psychiatric treatment.

Accurate forecasting of contagious illnesses has become increasingly important to public health policymaking, and better prediction could prevent the loss of millions of lives. To better prepare for future pandemics, it is essential to improve forecasting methods and capabilities. In this work, we propose a new infectious disease forecasting model based on physics-informed neural networks (PINNs), an emerging area of scientific machine learning.

The Acinetobacter baumannii is a member of the "ESKAPE" bacteria responsible for many serious multidrug-resistant (MDR) illnesses. This bacteria swiftly adapts to environmental cues leading to the emergence of multidrug-resistant variants, particularly in hospital/medical settings. In this work, we have demonstrated the outer membrane protein 33-36 (Omp33-36) porin as a potential therapeutic target in A.

Objective: This study aimed to assess the feasibility of computer model-based evaluation of knee joint functional capacity in comparison with manual assessment.
Methods: This study consisted of two phases: (1) developing an automatic knee joint action recognition and classification system on the basis of improved YOLOX and (2) analyzing the feasibility of assessment by the software system and doctors, identifying the knee joint function of patients, and determining the accuracy of the software system. We collected 40-50 samples for use in clinical experiments.
