Cutaneous T‐cell lymphomas: 2023 update on diagnosis, risk‐stratification, and management
Abstract Disease Overview Cutaneous T‐cell lymphomas are a heterogenous group of T‐cell neoplasms involving the skin, the majority of which may be classified as Mycosis Fungoides (MF) or Sézary Syndrome (SS). Diagnosis The diagnosis of MF or SS requires the integration of clinical and histopathologic data.

CXR-Net: An Encoder-Decoder-Encoder Multitask Deep Neural Network for Explainable and Accurate Diagnosis of COVID-19 pneumonia with Chest X-ray Images [PDF]
Accurate and rapid detection of COVID-19 pneumonia is crucial for optimal patient treatment. Chest X-Ray (CXR) is the first line imaging test for COVID-19 pneumonia diagnosis as it is fast, cheap and easily accessible. Inspired by the success of deep learning (DL) in computer vision, many DL-models have been proposed to detect COVID-19 pneumonia using ...

Transmission factors and exposure to infections at work and invasive pneumococcal disease
Abstract Background Working in close contacts with coworkers or the general public may be associated with transmission of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD). We investigated whether crowded workplaces, sharing surfaces, and exposure to infections were factors associated with IPD.

Bacterial pneumonia score to identify bacterial pneumonia
Background Pneumonia is caused by either bacterial or viral etiologies, with similar symptoms in children. The bacterial pneumonia score (BPS) is a clinical assessment comprised of several investigations: age, assessment of axillary temperature, absolute

Study on Transfer Learning Capabilities for Pneumonia Classification in Chest-X-Rays Image [PDF]
Over the last year, the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) and its variants have highlighted the importance of screening tools with high diagnostic accuracy for new illnesses such as COVID-19. To that regard, deep learning approaches have proven as effective solutions for pneumonia classification, especially when considering ...

Procalcitonin to distinguish viral from bacterial pneumonia: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
Because of the diverse etiologies of community acquired pneumonia (CAP) and the limitations of current diagnostic modalities, serum procalcitonin levels have been proposed as a novel tool to guide antibiotic therapy.

Secondary Bacterial Infections in Patients With Viral Pneumonia
Pulmonary diseases of viral origin are often followed by the manifestation of secondary infections, leading to further clinical complications and negative disease outcomes. Thus, research on secondary infections is essential.
