Meal-time Detection by Means of Long Periods Blood Glucose Level Monitoring via IoT Technology [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Blood glucose level monitoring is of great importance, especially for subjects experiencing type 1 diabetes. Accurate monitoring of their blood glucose level prevents dangerous and life-threatening situations that might be experienced by those subjects. In addition, precise monitoring of blood glucose levels over long periods of time helps establishing

Semi‐supervised classification of fundus images combined with CNN and GCN

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Purpose Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is one of the most serious complications of diabetes, which is a kind of fundus lesion with specific changes. Early diagnosis of DR can effectively reduce the visual damage caused by DR. Due to the variety and different morphology of DR lesions, automatic classification of fundus images in mass screening can ...

Predicting blood pressure under circumstances of missing data: An analysis of missing data patterns and imputation methods using NHANES [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
The World Health Organization defines cardio-vascular disease (CVD) as "a group of disorders of the heart and blood vessels," including coronary heart disease and stroke (WHO 21). CVD is affected by "intermediate risk factors" such as raised blood pressure, raised blood glucose, raised blood lipids, and obesity.

Flow‐based immunomagnetic enrichment of circulating tumor cells from diagnostic leukapheresis product

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The number of circulating tumor cells obtained from prostate cancer patients was increased approximately 5‐fold compared to regular CellSearch when processing 2 mL diagnostic leukapheresis material aliquots and increased by 44‐fold when processing 20 mL DLA aliquots using the flow enrichment target capture Halbach‐array.

COMP Report: CPQR technical quality control guidelines for use of positron emission tomography/computed tomography in radiation treatment planning

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Positron emission tomography with x‐ray computed tomography (PET/CT) is increasingly being utilized for radiation treatment planning (RTP). Accurate delivery of RT therefore depends on quality PET/CT data. This study covers quality control (QC) procedures required for PET/CT for diagnostic imaging and incremental QC required for RTP.
