Accuracy of the sleep clinical record for the diagnosis of pediatric moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea syndrome
(2022)Purpose: The sleep clinical record (SCR) has been used to diagnose obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) in children when access to polysomnography (PSG) is limited. Our aim was to determine the best SCR score that could ... -
Alcoholic liver disease and autoimmune hepatitis: Sometimes a closer look under the surface is needed
(2021)Aims: Differential diagnosis of autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) incorporates various liver diseases, including alcoholic liver disease (ALD). We report on clinical, laboratory and outcome characteristics of AIH patients who ... -
Anatomical Differences Between Intact and Ruptured Large Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms
(2020)Purpose: To compare different anatomical characteristics between intact and ruptured large abdominal aortic aneurysms (rAAA >80 mm) with the goal of refining the process of estimating rupture risk. Materials and Methods: ... -
Anti-MCV antibodies predict radiographic progression in Greek patients with very early (<3 months duration) rheumatoid arthritis
(2017)This study aimed to assess the diagnostic and prognostic value of anti-mutated citrullinated vimentin (MCV) antibodies in very early rheumatoid arthritis (VERA) and in established rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Seventy-one ... -
Antibody tests in detecting SARS-CoV-2 infection: A meta-analysis
(2020)The emergence of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by SARS-CoV-2 made imperative the need for diagnostic tests that can identify the infection. Although Nucleic Acid Test (NAT) is considered to be the gold standard, ... -
Application of Bayesian modeling for diagnostic assays of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis in sheep and goats flocks
(2022)Background: This study aimed to screen the sera of goats and sheep from flocks suspected of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) infection by a newly standardized Mce-truncated ELISA (Mt-ELISA) kit for the ... -
Assessment of bone mineral density in male patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease by DXA and quantitative computed tomography
(2016)The purpose of this study is to identify the prevalence of osteoporosis in male patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and quantitative computed tomography (QCT) ... -
The association between retinopathy of prematurity and ocular growth
(2019)PURPOSE. The purpose of this study was to prospectively investigate the association between retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and ocular growth in premature infants during the earliest weeks of life. METHODS. Premature ... -
Bayesian Evaluation of Three Serological Tests for Diagnosis of Brucella infections in Dromedary Camels Using Latent Class Models
(2022)Brucellosis is a zoonotic disease with significant economic and public health impacts. The disease has been found in ruminants, including camels, but clinical diagnosis of camel brucellosis is difficult due to the lack of ... -
Bayesian evaluation of three serological tests for the diagnosis of bovine brucellosis in bangladesh
(2019)We evaluated the performance of three serological tests – an immunoglobulin G indirect enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (iELISA), a Rose Bengal test and a slow agglutination test (SAT) – for the diagnosis of bovine ... -
Bayesian latent class models to estimate diagnostic test accuracies of COVID-19 tests

Bone metastasis classification using whole body images from prostate cancer patients based on convolutional neural networks application
(2020)Bone metastasis is one of the most frequent diseases in prostate cancer; scintigraphy imaging is particularly important for the clinical diagnosis of bone metastasis. Up to date, minimal research has been conducted regarding ... -
Bootstrap-based testing approaches for the assessment of the diagnostic accuracy of biomarkers subject to a limit of detection
(2019)Assessment of the diagnostic accuracy of biomarkers through receiver operating characteristic curve analysis frequently involves a limit of detection imposed by the laboratory analytical system precision. As a consequence, ... -
Breast Cancer Classification on Multiparametric MRI – Increased Performance of Boosting Ensemble Methods
(2022)Introduction: This study aims to assess the utility of Boosting ensemble classification methods for increasing the diagnostic performance of multiparametric Magnetic Resonance Imaging (mpMRI) radiomic models, in differentiating ... -
C-reactive protein as a potential biomarker of residual obstructive sleep apnea following adenotonsillectomy in children
(2016)Study Objectives: Adenotonsillectomy (AT) is first-line treatment for pediatric obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), with most children having improvements in polysomnography (PSG). However, many children have residual OSA ... -
Can bioelectrical impedance analysis and BMI be a prognostic tool in head and neck cancer patients? A review of the evidence
(2020)Background: Malnutrition can significantly affect disease progression and patient survival. The efficiency of weight loss and bioimpedance analysis (BIA)-derived measures in the evaluation of malnutrition, and disease ... -
COMP serum levels: A new non-invasive biomarker of liver fibrosis in patients with chronic viral hepatitis
(2017)Background & aims Recently we have shown that cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP), a fibrillar collagen assembly regulator, is strongly associated with cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma progression. Therefore, ... -
Comparison of Voice Handicap Index Scores Between Female Students of Speech Therapy and Other Health Professions
(2017)Students' groups (eg, teachers, speech language pathologists) are presumably at risk of developing a voice disorder due to misuse of their voice, which will affect their way of living. Multidisciplinary voice assessment ... -
