Deep Pneumonia: Attention-Based Contrastive Learning for Class-Imbalanced Pneumonia Lesion Recognition in Chest X-rays [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Computer-aided X-ray pneumonia lesion recognition is important for accurate diagnosis of pneumonia. With the emergence of deep learning, the identification accuracy of pneumonia has been greatly improved, but there are still some challenges due to the fuzzy appearance of chest X-rays.

Polysaccharide conjugate vaccine against pneumococcal pneumonia in adults.
New England Journal of Medicine, 2015 BACKGROUND Pneumococcal polysaccharide conjugate vaccines prevent pneumococcal disease in infants, but their efficacy against pneumococcal community-acquired pneumonia in adults 65 years of age or older is unknown. METHODS In a randomized, double-blind,

Estimating the burden of hospitalization for pneumococcal pneumonia in a general population aged 50 years or older and implications for vaccination strategies [PDF]
, 2014 Streptococcus pneumoniae is a major cause of human infectious diseases worldwide. Despite this documented evidence, data on pneumococcal disease rates among general populations are scant because of the frequent lack of cultural identification.

Prediction of Pneumonia and COVID-19 Using Deep Neural Networks [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Pneumonia, caused by bacteria and viruses, is a rapidly spreading viral infection with global implications. Prompt identification of infected individuals is crucial for containing its transmission. This study explores the potential of medical image analysis to address this challenge.

MicroRNA-223 Dampens Pulmonary Inflammation during Pneumococcal Pneumonia
Cells, 2023 Community-acquired pneumonia remains a major contributor to global communicable disease-mediated mortality. Neutrophils play a leading role in trying to contain bacterial lung infection, but they also drive detrimental pulmonary inflammation, when ...

Deep Learning for Automatic Pneumonia Detection [PDF]
2020 IEEE/CVF Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern
Recognition Workshops (CVPRW), Seattle, WA, USA, 2020, pp. 1436-1443, 2020 Pneumonia is the leading cause of death among young children and one of the top mortality causes worldwide. The pneumonia detection is usually performed through examine of chest X-ray radiograph by highly-trained specialists. This process is tedious and often leads to a disagreement between radiologists.
