Article Abstract

Background: Using Minimum Data Set (MDS) is the first step in creating and developing a health care information system; it includes standard and key data elements to capture and manage patient care.

Aims: This study aimed to develop an MDS in order for using it for designing registry of patients with rheumatoid arthritis in Iran.

Methods: This study was conducted at two stages in 2018. In stage one, qualitative method and semi-structured interview were used to identify the registry data elements of patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Collected data was analysed using content analysis method. In stage two, using Delphi method, the developed data set was revised and validated by 15 rheumatologists. Descriptive statistics using SPSS software was used to analyse the data in Delphi.

Results: The final MDS included 22 data elements, which were divided into two major categories of management data (including demographic data, and admission and discharge) and clinical data (including patient examination, treatment plans, and medication prescribed by physician).

Conclusion: Minimum data set is one of the standard data collection tools playing an important role in health care data management. This study presented a MDS as a platform for creating a rheumatoid arthritis registry system in Iran recommended by rheumatologists.

Molecular property prediction has become essential in accelerating advancements in drug discovery and materials science. Graph Neural Networks have recently demonstrated remarkable success in molecular representation learning; however, their broader adoption is impeded by two significant challenges: (1) data scarcity and constrained model generalization due to the expensive and time-consuming task of acquiring labeled data and (2) inadequate initial node and edge features that fail to incorporate comprehensive chemical domain knowledge, notably orbital information. To address these limitations, we introduce a Knowledge-Guided Graph (KGG) framework employing self-supervised learning to pretrain models using orbital-level features in order to mitigate reliance on extensive labeled data sets.

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure (HF) frequently coexist in patients, with the development of AF often preceding HF decompensation. We sought to evaluate whether daily remote monitoring of ICD parameters could predict AF occurrence using machine learning techniques in a real-world cohort.

Methods: Data from patients with primary prevention ICDs transmitted daily to the Northwell centralized remote monitoring center between 2012 and 2021 were extracted.

Albumin and γ-globulin concentrations in an electrolyte solution have been quantified by a multivariate-regressive Gaussian admittance relaxation times distribution (mgARTD). The mgARTD is built based on the training data consisting of the impedance spectroscopy system measurement result of protein mixture solutions with a known concentration of albumin, γ-globulin, and sodium electrolyte to perform concentration quantification on a prospective protein mixture solution with an unknown concentration. The mgARTD consists of three steps: (1) Prediction step of the peak matrix by Gaussian ARTD (gARTD) with the Gaussian process and peak detection algorithm, (2) Training step of the approximated coefficient matrix ̃ based on the multivariate-regressive formula = + (: multivariate-regression coefficient matrix, : error matrix, and : known concentration matrix of the training data set), and (3) Quantification step of the approximated concentration ̃ based on the Gauss-Newton algorithm from the predicted of the quantification data and the approximated ̃.

Ageing is one of the most significant risk factors for heart disease; however, it is still not clear how the human heart changes with age. Taking advantage of a unique set of pre-mortem, cryopreserved, non-diseased human hearts, we performed omics analyses (transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, and lipidomics), coupled with biologically informed computational modelling in younger (≤ 25 years old) and older hearts (≥ 50 years old) to describe the molecular landscape of human cardiac ageing. In older hearts, we observed a downregulation of proteins involved in calcium signalling and the contractile apparatus.

Background: Accurate measurement of echocardiographic parameters is crucial for the diagnosis of cardiovascular disease and tracking of change over time; however, manual assessment requires time-consuming effort and can be imprecise. Artificial intelligence has the potential to reduce clinician burden by automating the time-intensive task of comprehensive measurement of echocardiographic parameters.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to develop and validate open-sourced deep learning semantic segmentation models for the automated measurement of 18 anatomic and Doppler measurements in echocardiography.
