Clinical risk factors predictive of thrombotic stroke with large cerebral infarction
Large cerebral infarctions have high morbidity and mortality. Patients with large cerebral infarctions may have recurrent ischemia as high as 8.1% within 7 days; highest among other types of strokes.

SomnNET: An SpO2 Based Deep Learning Network for Sleep Apnea Detection in Smartwatches [PDF]
The abnormal pause or rate reduction in breathing is known as the sleep-apnea hypopnea syndrome and affects the quality of sleep of an individual. A novel method for the detection of sleep apnea events (pause in breathing) from peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) signals obtained from wearable devices is discussed in this paper.
