Mayo Clinic researchers analyzing patient records found that individuals with acute kidney injury receiving continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) once are likely to require the therapy again,...
By conducting data analytics on one of the world’s largest integrated health record databases, the Clalit Research Institute and Harvard University researchers examined the effectiveness of the...
University of Chicago researchers used flu data and similarities to create a predictive model showing how COVID-19 spreads.
While COVID-19 is more transmissible and deadlier than most influenzas...
While many risk factors patients face concerning their health are due to genetics, researchers suggest that social determinants of health could also play a role in risk prediction.
In a recent study,...
According to a Boston University School of Medicine study, the lack of breast cancer risk prediction models specifically tailored to Black women has created health disparities.
On average, Black women...
Regenstrief Institute researchers created a new prediction model that determines an individual’s risk for colon cancer and precancerous polyps.

Those managing chronic illnesses such as cancer have been heavily impacted during the COVID-19 pandemic due to their risk factors. While the vaccine supplies some relief, according to University of...
To better understand ventricular arrhythmias, Johns Hopkins University researchers are studying the use of whole-heart computational models. Whole-heart computational modeling can lead to personalized...
A recent study indicated that genetic mutations in blood cells caused by smoking and aging-related changed could be risk factors for a rare type of blood cancer that impacts immune cells. The findings...
The National Kidney Foundation (NKF) and the American Society of Nephrology (ASN) Task Force released a report outlining a new race-free approach to diagnosing chronic kidney disease.
In the joint...
A study led by New York University (NYU) researchers created an artificial intelligence tool to improve the accuracy of breast cancer imaging. The computer program was trained to identify patterns...
Despite revised guidelines for lung cancer screening eligibility, health disparities among racial and ethnic minorities are persisting, according to the Radiological Society of North America.
In 2014,...
Stress due to social determinants of health can increase an individual’s risk of heart disease, according to the American Heart Association.
Studies have indicated that cumulative exposure to...
A commonly used predictive analytics model that forecasts lung cancer risk underperforms in Black populations, suggesting the need for improved screenings and guidelines.
In a study published in JAMA...
Researchers from Michigan Medicine have developed a predictive analytics model that can accurately identify patient deterioration for both general ward and COVID-19 patients.
The algorithm was more...
Statistical suicide risk prediction models could be implemented cost-effectively in healthcare organizations and may help save many lives each year, according to a study published in JAMA...
A machine learning tool can analyze EHR data to calculate suicide attempt risk and help providers know which patients to screen in nonpsychiatric clinical settings, a study published in JAMA Network...
Artificial intelligence can analyze electrical signals from the heart to predict which patients are at high risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) and stroke, according to a study published in...
While most Hispanic and Latino people in the US were aware of their cardiovascular disease risk factors, less than half of stroke survivors in these populations had healthy blood pressure and...
