(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
This study constructs a machine learning method to simultaneously analyze the thermodynamic behavior of many polymer-drug systems. The solubility temperature of Acetaminophen, Celecoxib, Chloramphenicol, D-Mannitol, ...
Blind ECG Restoration by Operational Cycle-GANs
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2022 , Article)
Objective: ECG recordings often suffer from a set of artifacts with varying types, severities, and durations, and this makes an accurate diagnosis by machines or medical doctors difficult and unreliable. Numerous studies ...
PPG2ABP: Translating Photoplethysmogram (PPG) Signals to Arterial Blood Pressure (ABP) Waveforms
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
Cardiovascular diseases are one of the most severe causes of mortality, annually taking a heavy toll on lives worldwide. Continuous monitoring of blood pressure seems to be the most viable option, but this demands an ...
Machine Learning-Based Respiration Rate and Blood Oxygen Saturation Estimation Using Photoplethysmogram Signals
(
MDPI
, 2023 , Article)
The continuous monitoring of respiratory rate (RR) and oxygen saturation (SpO2) is crucial for patients with cardiac, pulmonary, and surgical conditions. RR and SpO2 are used to assess the effectiveness of lung medications ...
Genomic landscape of prominent XDR Acinetobacter clonal complexes from Dhaka, Bangladesh
(
BioMed Central Ltd
, 2022 , Article)
Background: Acinetobacter calcoaceticus-A. baumannii (ACB) complex pathogens are known for their prevalence in nosocomial infections and extensive antimicrobial resistance (AMR) capabilities. While genomic studies worldwide ...
Prognostic Model of ICU Admission Risk in Patients with COVID-19 Infection Using Machine Learning
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
With the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the number of critically sick patients in intensive care units (ICUs) has increased worldwide, putting a burden on ICUs. Early prediction of ICU requirement is crucial for efficient ...
A Novel Machine Learning Approach for Severity Classification of Diabetic Foot Complications Using Thermogram Images
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the most prevalent diseases in the world, and is correlated to a high index of mortality. One of its major complications is diabetic foot, leading to plantar ulcers, amputation, and death. ...
Design and Implementation of a Smart Insole System to Measure Plantar Pressure and Temperature
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
An intelligent insole system may monitor the individual's foot pressure and temperature in real-time from the comfort of their home, which can help capture foot problems in their earliest stages. Constant monitoring for ...
