Background: The World Health Organization (WHO) has recommended the development of a cleft-specific database for collecting and analyzing data on patients with cleft from birth to adulthood. However, such a database currently does not exist in Malaysia. The objective of this study was to develop a cleft lip and/or palate (CL/P) database software for Malaysia to streamline data collection and support comprehensive research to enhance outcomes of care.
Methods: The development of the database software involves several key stages, including determining the requirements, designing the software interface, implementing the system, conducting thorough testing, and completing comprehensive documentation. The database software was mainly developed internally within the research institution. The team involved in developing the clinical database includes cleft clinicians, software developers, software designers, members of the Cleft Lip and Palate Association Malaysia (CLAPAM), and experts in database development.
Results: An online and offline database software has been developed to store information on patients with CL/P in Malaysia. It is designed to be user-friendly, accommodating multiple specialties and capable of storing photographs, radiology, and three-dimensional files. Various methods have been implemented to ensure data security. Additionally, documentation including video tutorials, consent forms, and hard copy versions has been developed to complement the database.
Conclusion: A specialized cleft-specific database software has been successfully developed for use in Malaysia to improve data management and support CL/P patient care.

Background: One of the limiting toxicities of BTKi is the development of atrial fibrillation (AF), with an incidence of 3%-16%.
Aim: This study aimed to identify patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) starting both first- and second-generation BTKis who are at high risk of developing AF using a machine learning approach.
Methods: The CLL cohort is based on data obtained from electronic medical records from Maccabi, the second-largest healthcare organization in Israel.

Background: Breast cancer (BC) is the most common malignant tumor threatening women's health globally, with rising incidence rates and significant psychological impacts, particularly in China, where the prevalence of depressive and anxious mood disorders among BC patients is notably higher than the global average. To evaluate the effect of mindfulness therapy on anxiety and depressive symptoms in breast cancer patients, as psychological distress significantly affects their quality of life and often persists despite medical treatment.
Methods: A computerized search of Web of Science, PubMed, ScienceDirect, Cochrane Library, and Embase databases was conducted for randomized controlled trials involving the effects of positive thinking interventions on anxiety and depressive symptoms in breast cancer patients.
This study presents a novel deep learning approach for surface electromyography (sEMG) gesture recognition using stacked autoencoder neural network (SAE)s. The method leverages hierarchical representation learning to extract meaningful features from raw sEMG signals, enhancing the precision and robustness of gesture classification.•Feature Extraction and Classification MODWT Decomposition: The sEMG signals were decomposed using the MODWT DECOMPOSITION(Maximal Overlap Discrete Wavelet Transform) to capture various frequency components.
