  • Clinicians were blinded to all risk assessments, consisting of conventional factors, radial artery pulse wave analysis, 5-minute heart rate variability, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein and B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP). (biomedcentral.com)
  • This leaves limited scope for identifying patients at high risk that might benefit from more intensive management. (biomedcentral.com)
  • Importantly, patients with a low-risk of death and heart failure could be accurately identified with a high negative predictive value. (libsyn.com)
  • A summary of available imaging tests for low-, intermediate-, and high-risk asymptomatic patients is outlined in this document. (bvsalud.org)
  • Arbyn M, Bergeron C, Klinkhamer P, Martin-Hirsch squamous cell carcinoma in a high-risk region in Iran. (who.int)
  • Then, with according to the structures, we study the laser equations first in the conventional state, then we propagate the spin state to better gain. (anveshika.org)
  • This study explores the use of a genetic risk score (GRS) for CAD risk prediction, compares it to established clinical markers, and investigates its performance according to the age and pharmacological treatment. (diabetesjournals.org)
  • The project focuses on developing improved genetic risk scores and testing their clinical validity. (helsinki.fi)
  • Genetic risk scores are statistical tools generated based on genome-wide profiling of individuals and the effects of each genetic variant on a risk of each disease. (helsinki.fi)
  • INTERVENE will also build a new European platform that will allow researchers and clinicians to easily calculate genetic scores with the goal to enable a wide adoption of genetic risk scores as a gold standard in clinical research. (helsinki.fi)
  • In this manuscript, we use an example dataset that documents farm vehicle crashes and conventional statistical methods to forecast the risk of an injury or death in a farm vehicle crash for a specific individual or a scenario. (cdc.gov)
  • This can be due to low hospital stay time and less pain felt during surgical procedures as compared to conventional methods. (medgadget.com)
  • A systematic approach toward presenting NRI analysis is proposed: Detail and motivate the methods used for computation of the NRI, use clinically meaningful risk cutoffs for the category-based NRI, report both NRI components, address issues of calibration, and do not interpret the overall NRI as a percentage of the study population reclassified. (acpjournals.org)
  • To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study that used predicted miRNAs to determine the features that can separate the diseased samples (T2D or AD) from the normal ones, instead of using conventional non-biology-based feature selection methods. (frontiersin.org)
  • In Medicare aged subjects with clinically identified risk factors for OSA, how does the diagnostic accuracy of a clinical trial of CPAP compare with PSG and Type II, III & IV HST in identifying subjects with OSA who will respond to CPAP? (cms.gov)
  • current guidelines discrepancies also reflect the fact that the level of stroke risk among men with a score on 1 and women with a score of 2 is on the borderline of where the impact of anticoagulation treatment shifts from beneficial to harmful. (blogspot.com)
  • A 2014 report by Vanassche which analyzed data from 6563 AF patients not treated with oral anticoagulants (OAC) determined that stroke risk in permanent AF was roughly twice that of PAF. (blogspot.com)
  • Even though the risk of stroke is lower, still the stroke risk may overwhelm the risk of serious bleeding from OAC leading to a positive clinical benefit or trade-off and a reasonable recommendation for OAC. (blogspot.com)
  • The Feops HEARTguide is a predictive planning guide which can provide insights on size of the device as well as positioning during surgery to reduce the probability of injuries. (medgadget.com)
  • The predictive models will be made available for public use and new insights about disease risk factors will be published to improve humanity's understanding of disease. (canpath.ca)
  • Bleeding Risk (any bleeding complication) on Warfarin Therapy Estimates risk of any bleeding complications for patients on warfarin. (bmj.com)
