  2. Mathematical modelling of infectious diseases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_modelling_of...

    Models use basic assumptions or collected statistics along with mathematics to find parameters for various infectious diseases and use those parameters to calculate the effects of different interventions, like mass vaccination programs. The modelling can help decide which intervention(s) to avoid and which to trial, or can predict future growth ...

  3. Clinical prediction rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clinical_prediction_rule

    In a prediction rule study, investigators identify a consecutive group of patients who are suspected of having a specific disease or outcome. The investigators then obtain a standard set of clinical observations on each patient and a test or clinical follow-up to define the true state of the patient.

  4. Alzheimer's disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alzheimer's_disease

    The disease was first described as a distinctive disease by Emil Kraepelin after suppressing some of the clinical (delusions and hallucinations) and pathological features (arteriosclerotic changes) contained in the original report of Auguste D. [248] He included Alzheimer's disease, also named presenile dementia by Kraepelin, as a subtype of ...

  5. Neural network (machine learning) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neural_network_(machine...

    In drug discovery, ANNs speed up the identification of potential drug candidates and predict their efficacy and safety, significantly reducing development time and costs. [244] Additionally, their application in personalized medicine and healthcare data analysis allows tailored therapies and efficient patient care management. [ 245 ]

  6. Acute kidney injury - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acute_kidney_injury

    Injury: Two-fold increase in the serum creatinine, or GFR decrease by 50 percent, or urine output <0.5 mL/kg per hour for 12 hours. Failure: Three-fold increase in the serum creatinine, or GFR decrease by 75 percent, or urine output of <0.3 mL/kg per hour for 24 hours, or no urine output (anuria) for 12 hours.

  7. Artificial intelligence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_intelligence

    Artificial intelligence (AI), in its broadest sense, is intelligence exhibited by machines, particularly computer systems.It is a field of research in computer science that develops and studies methods and software that enable machines to perceive their environment and use learning and intelligence to take actions that maximize their chances of achieving defined goals.

  8. Plant disease forecasting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_disease_forecasting

    The plant disease triangle represents the factors necessary for disease to occur. Plant disease forecasting is a management system used to predict the occurrence or change in severity of plant diseases. At the field scale, these systems are used by growers to make economic decisions about disease treatments for control.

  9. Disease registry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disease_registry

    Patient registries are particularly useful for evaluating the safety of orphan drug products as well as the safety of drugs in specific populations. [12] However, it is getting more and more common to use data of different healthcare and disease registries innovatively for different purposes such as for generating evidence for healthcare ...
