Diagnosis of Pulmonary Embolism with d-Dimer Adjusted to Clinical Probability.
BACKGROUND Retrospective analyses suggest that pulmonary embolism is ruled out by a d-dimer level of less than 1000 ng per milliliter in patients with a low clinical pretest probability (C-PTP) and by a d-dimer level of less than 500 ng per milliliter in

Efflux‐mediated resistance compromises antibiotic efficacy, yet rapid detection remains elusive. This study presents a novel phenazinium‐based diagnostic molecule for quantifying bacterial efflux levels in Gram‐positive pathogens. The optimized compound enables precise, real‐time efflux assessment using fluorescence and colorimetric techniques ...

PECon: Contrastive Pretraining to Enhance Feature Alignment between CT and EHR Data for Improved Pulmonary Embolism Diagnosis [PDF]
Previous deep learning efforts have focused on improving the performance of Pulmonary Embolism(PE) diagnosis from Computed Tomography (CT) scans using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN). However, the features from CT scans alone are not always sufficient for the diagnosis of PE.
