Article Abstract

Tuberculosis caused by complex (MTBC) is one of the major infectious diseases in the world. Identification of MTBC and differential diagnosis of nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) species impose challenges because of their taxonomic similarity. This study describes a differential diagnosis method using the surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) measurement of molecules released by species. Conventional principal component analysis and linear discriminant analysis methods successfully separated the acquired spectrum of MTBC from those of NTM species but failed to distinguish between the spectra of different NTM species. A novel sensible functional linear discriminant analysis (SLDA), projecting the averaged spectrum of a bacterial specie to the subspace orthogonal to the within-species random variation, thereby eliminating its influence in applying linear discriminant analysis, was employed to effectively discriminate not only MTBC but also species of NTM. The successful demonstration of this SERS-SLDA method opens up new opportunities for the rapid differentiation of species.

Development and external validation of a clinical prediction model for new-onset atrial fibrillation in intensive care: a multicentre, retrospective cohort study.

Background: New-onset atrial fibrillation, a condition associated with adverse outcomes in the short and long term, is common in patients admitted to intensive care units (ICUs). Identifying patients at high risk could inform trials of preventive interventions and help to target such interventions. We aimed to develop and externally validate a prediction model for new-onset atrial fibrillation in patients admitted to ICUs.

Objectives: We aimed to assess the long-term survival following surgical repair because of type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) and the correlation with the preoperative GERAADA-score value.

Methods: We enrolled patients who underwent emergent aortic surgery because of ATAAD from 2010 to 2022 from 9 hospitals. Follow-up information was obtained by matching the clinical patient data with a national administrative database.

Distinct cerebellar networks underpin clinical improvement in adolescent Tourette disorder.

Adolescence is frequently called the second brain maturation period. In Tourette disorder (TD), the clinical trajectory of tics and associated psychiatric co-morbidities vary significantly across individuals during the transition from adolescents to adulthood. In this study, we aimed to identify patterns of resting-state functional connectivity that differentiate adolescents with TD from their neurotypical peers, and to monitor symptom-specific functional changes over time.

Recognizing hand gestures from surface electromyography (sEMG) signals is crucial for neural interfaces and human-machine interaction. However, developing subject-generic models remains challenging due to substantial inter-subject variability. Complicating matters further, the muscle groups driving gestures with varying degrees of freedom (DoFs) often overlap, producing highly convoluted feature distributions across subjects and DoFs.

Visceral adiposity has been proposed to be closely linked to cognitive impairment. This cross-sectional study aimed to evaluate the predictive value of Chinese Visceral Adiposity Index (CVAI) for mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and to develop a quantitative risk assessment model. A total of 337 hospitalized patients with T2DM were included and randomly assigned to a training cohort (70%, n = 236) and a validation cohort (30%, n = 101).
