Risk adjustment models play a critical role in guiding clinical care, adjusting case mix in research and supporting health services planning and financing, including payment adjustments based on patient complexity. However, these models, such as […]
Genomic researchers used to be able to store their datasets on a laptop, but with so many whole genomes available now to study, the resulting big datasets must be stored in the cloud—resulting in more […]
Two types of neurons in the skin may be particularly important for how the brain interprets social contact between people, according to a new study led by Linköping University in Sweden. Knowledge of how the […]
Unicompartmental (partial) knee replacement (UKR) is a common procedure designed to relieve pain in patients with knee osteoarthritis. However, some patients experience poor outcomes, and it can be challenging for surgeons to determine why these […]
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is one of the most effective technologies to assess the innermost structures of the human brain. The technology, which uses a magnetic field and radio waves to produce images of soft […]
More than a third of women across 10 health care practices chose to enroll in a self-pay, artificial intelligence (AI)-enhanced breast cancer screening program, and the women who enrolled were 21% more likely to have […]
With the help of an AI tool, computed tomography (CT) scans taken originally to look for tumors or bleeding or infections, also revealed calcium buildup in arteries, a sign of worsening cardiovascular disease.This post was […]
Cleveland Clinic developed a predictive model to identify patients at risk of developing gastric (stomach) cancer who may benefit from stomach cancer screening. The model is designed to identify who might need regular upper endoscopies […]
With flu season upon us and coronavirus a persistent threat, Dartmouth researchers propose a new way of thinking about masking and social distancing rules that is more responsive to what people feel is necessary at […]
A UCLA study has outlined a new framework that researchers say would improve the predictive power of genetics to determine how well a patient would respond to commonly prescribed medications as well as the severity […]
