Researchers were able to apply a machine-learning computational model to arrange stem cells into different shapes. The holy grail of medical advancements is being able to create organs out of one’s own cells. But to do that researchers have to organize stem cells into predictable patterns, which has been quite a struggle. 3-D printing is one approach
Interest in machine-learning applications within medicine has been growing, but few studies have progressed to deployment in patient care. We present a framework, context and ultimately guidelines for accelerating the translation of machine-learning-based interventions in health care. To be successful, translation will require a team of engaged stakeholders and a systematic process from beginning (problem
Four clinical sepsis phenotypes were identified that correlated with host-response patterns and clinical outcomes, researchers reported here. The four novel sepsis phenotypes — alpha (α), beta (β), gamma (γ), and delta (δ) — with different demographics, laboratory values, and patterns of organ dysfunction were derived, validated, and shown to correlate with biomarkers and mortality, according
The field of medicine has so far relied heavily on heuristic approaches, whereby knowledge is acquired through experience and self-learning, which is imperative in the highly variable healthcare environment. The increase in knowledge and understanding of diseases has been associated with the growth in information and data partly thanks to advances in tools that generate
