Accurate daily precipitation forecasts are important for weather-sensitive decisions. Although recent Weather Foundation Models (WFMs) have achieved significant progress, they are trained on reanalysis data, which exhibit regional and intensity-dependent biases. Since retraining WFMs on observation-based targets is cos …
Provider queries are clarifying requests sent by clinical documentation specialists to physicians to close gaps in the clinical note and ensure accurate billing. Prior work automates note drafting, ICD-10 coding, and order extraction assuming a complete transcript, leaving these gaps unaddressed. We study whether an LL …
Accurate medication recommendation is central to clinical decision-making, directly determining therapeutic efficacy and patient safety. However, existing methods suffer from two key limitations: drugs are often abstracted as discrete tokens, ignoring their molecular structures and pharmacological mechanisms, and the c …
In this paper, we proposed GAD-MambaUNet, a lightweight medical image segmentation network that combines efficient local modeling, direction--group state-space interaction, and training-time foundation-model supervision. To improve contextual modeling in compact segmentation networks, we introduced Direction-Group Grap …
In automated clinical coding, where the label space spans tens of thousands of diagnosis and procedure codes, models are currently evaluated against a single gold annotation, treating any deviation as error. But we find when two teams code the same 110 ACI-Bench encounters, they agree on only 73% of codes (Jaccard simi …
Abstract Chloride (Cl ‒ ) exerts complex and condition-dependent effects in heterogeneous catalytic ozonation (HCO), yet current mechanistic interpretations remain fragmented and often lack direct evidence. This Perspective rethinks Cl ‒ effects across ozone availability, interfacial accessibility, and oxidation pathwa …
ABSTRACT Objective: To investigate the impact of adverse cardiovascular events (ACVs) in elderly frail patients undergoing emergency endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), and to explore a safe and comfortable anesthetic regimen suitable for this specific population. Materials and Methods: A single-cent …
Infrared images are essential for low-light object recognition and scene understanding; however, their widespread use is limited by high acquisition costs. An alternative is to convert readily available visible images into infrared ones. Deep learning offers a promising solution to this problem. Nevertheless, existing …
Tuberculous meningitis (TBM) typically presents with neurological symptoms. Voiding dysfunction in TBM is usually attributed to spinal cord involvement. We report a rare case of possible TBM co-existing with possible prostatic tuberculosis, presenting primarily with urinary symptoms in the absence of spinal pathology. …
Semi-supervised learning networks based on pseudo-label method have been widely applied to multimodal image classification tasks to improve model accuracy when labeled data are scarce. However, it remains a critical challenge for multimodal data to generate high-quality pseudo-labels and effectively leverage unreliable …
BACKGROUND: Severe COVID-19 caused by SARS-CoV-2 should closely be cared because of the relatively high mortality rate. If SARS-CoV-2 could be cleared as soon as possible, the mortality rate might lower. In the present study, we analyzed factors which might be related to the clearance of SARS-CoV-2. METHODS: One hundre …
OBJECTIVE: To assess the safety and efficacy of the StarClose device following intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) counterpulsation using 8-Fr femoral sheaths. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: From June 2008 to August 2012, 42 consecutive patients who received IABP implantation via common femoral artery (CFA) punctures with an 8-Fr …
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and clinical outcome of using an oblique AO (Association for the Study of Internal Fixation) metaphyseal locking compression plate (MLCP) in the treatment of adult extra-articular distal humeral diaphyseal fractures via a posterior approach. SUBJECTS …
