Newest firstBackgroundHypertension remains one of the most challenging healthcare problems in the community. It is a common, measurable, and treatable condition that is nonetheless responsible for millions of preventable deaths each year. Hypertension affects approximately 1.28 billion adults worldwide, yet fewer than half (46%) are aware of their condition. Undiagnosed hypertension is a critical public health gap, contributi…
Open article record in new tab ↗BackgroundChronic kidney disease (CKD) affects approximately 850 million individuals worldwide and remains a leading cause of morbidity, premature mortality, and escalating healthcare costs. Despite the availability of clinical biomarkers, CKD progression to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is frequently identified late, limiting opportunities for preventive intervention. Conventional predictive models have relied p…
Open article record in new tab ↗Esophageal cancer (EC) remains one of the most lethal malignancies worldwide, with poor survival outcomes largely attributable to late-stage diagnosis and limited treatment effectiveness. Early detection and accurate risk stratification are therefore essential for improving clinical management. In this study, we investigate the predictive value of socio-demographic, dietary, behavioral, environmental, and clinical…
Background Acute marijuana intoxication can impair motor skills and cognitive functions such as attention and information processing. However, traditional tests, like blood, urine, and saliva, fail to accurately detect acute marijuana intoxication in real time. Objective This study aims to explore whether integrating smartphone-based sensors with readily accessible wearable activity trackers, like Fitbit, can enha…
Pneumonia is a respiratory condition characterized by inflammation of the alveolar sacs in the lungs, which disrupts normal oxygen exchange. This disease disproportionately impacts vulnerable populations, including young children (under five years of age) and elderly individuals (over 65 years), primarily due to their compromised immune systems. The mortality rate associated with pneumonia remains alarmingly high,…
Open article record in new tab ↗BackgroundChronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a significant complication in people with diabetes, leading to serious adverse health outcomes and increased healthcare costs globally individually and on healthcare systems. This problem become more complicated when it is in Low and middle in countries including Rwanda when access to early diagnostic services is limited. Early prediction and intervention can improve patie…
Open article record in new tab ↗BackgroundDischarge date prediction plays a crucial role in healthcare management, enabling efficient resource allocation and patient care planning. Accurate estimation of the discharge date can optimize hospital operations and facilitate better patient outcomes. Materials and MethodsIn this study, we employed a systematic approach to develop a discharge date prediction model. We collaborated closely with clinical…
Open article record in new tab ↗Despite advances in periodontal disease (PD) research and periodontal treatments, 42% of the US population suffer from periodontitis. PD can be prevented if high-risk patients are identified early to provide preventive care. Prediction models can help assess risk for PD before initiation and progression; nevertheless, utilization of existing PD prediction models is seldom because of their suboptimal performance. T…
Obesity has always been a problem which has plagued humans for many generations, which, since the 1975, almost doubled to turn into a global epidemic. The current human dependence on technology has contributed to the problem even more, with the effects visibly pronounced in late teenagers and early adults. Researchers till date, have tried numerous ways to determine the factors that cause obesity in early adults.…
Open article record in new tab ↗The health and welfare of older adults have raised increasing attention due to global aging. Cycling is a physical activity and mode of transportation to enhance the mobility and quality of life among older adults. Nevertheless, the planning strategies to promote cycling among older adults are underutilized. Therefore, this paper describes the nonlinear associations of the built environment with cycling frequency…
