ABSTRACT

Cancer of the mesothelium, sometimes referred to as malignant mesothelioma (MM), is an extremely uncommon form of the illness that almost always results in death. Chemotherapy, surgery, radiation therapy, and immunotherapy are all potential treatments for multiple myeloma; however, the majority of patients are identified with the disease at an advanced stage, at which time it is resistant to these therapies. After obtaining a diagnosis of advanced multiple myeloma, the average length of time that a person lives is one year after hearing this news. There is a substantial link between asbestos exposure and mesothelioma (MM). Using an approach that enables feature selection and machine learning, this article proposes a classification and detection method for mesothelioma cancer. The CFS correlation-based feature selection approach is first used in the feature selection process. It acts as a filter, selecting just the traits that are relevant to the categorization. The accuracy of the categorization model is improved as a direct consequence of this. After that, classification is carried out with the help of naive Bayes, fuzzy SVM, and the ID3 algorithm. Various metrics have been utilized during the process of measuring the effectiveness of machine learning strategies. It has been discovered that the choice of features has a substantial influence on the accuracy of the categorization.

ABSTRACT

Brain tumor has the foremost distinguished etiology of high morality. Neoplasm, a categorization of brain tumors, is very operative in distinguishing and determining the tumor's exact location in the brain. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an efficient noninvasive technique for the anatomical examination of brain tumors. Growth tissues have a distinguishable look in MRI pictures in order that they are unit-wide used for brain tumor feature extraction. The existing research algorithms for brain tumors have some limitations such as different qualities, low sensitivity, and diagnosing the tumor at its stages. In this particular piece of research, an innovative method of optimization known as the procedure for lightning attachment algorithm (PLA) is used, and for the purpose of classification, a CNN model known as DenseNet-169 is applied. PLA was used in order to optimize the growth, and a network model known as the DenseNet-169 model was utilized in order to extract the various growth-optimization choices. First, the MR images of the brain were preprocessed to remove any outliers. Next, the Dense Net-169 CNN model was used to extract network choices from the MR images. In addition, it is used to execute the function of a classifier in order to identify the growth as either an aberrant growth or a traditional growth. In addition, the publicly benchmarked datasets that are widely utilized have validated the algorithmic rule that was granted. The planned system demonstrates the satisfactory accuracy in getting ready to on the dataset and outperforms many of the notable current techniques.

ABSTRACT

The recent advancement in mobile technologies has led to opening a new paradigm in the field of medical healthcare systems. The development of WBAN sensors, wearable devices, and 5G/6G wireless technology has made real-time monitoring and telecare of the patient feasible. The complex framework to secure sensitive data of the patient and healthcare professionals is critical. The fast computation of health data generated is crucial for disease prediction and trauma-related services; the security of data and financial transactions is also a major concern. Various models, algorithms, and frameworks have been developed to tame critical issues related to healthcare services. The efficiency of these frameworks and models depends on energy and time consumption. Thus, the review of recent emerging technologies in respect of energy and time consumption is required. This paper reviews the developments in recent mobile technologies, their application, and the comparative analysis of their performance parameters to explicitly understand the utility, capacity, and limitations. This will help to understand the shortcomings of the recent technologies for the development of better frameworks with higher performance capabilities as well as higher quality of services.

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: The purpose of the study was to analyse caregiver burden and consumption of psychosocial services in a consecutive group of patients with early onset Alzheimer's disease (EOAD) compared with a matching group with late onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD). MATERIAL AND METHODS: This was a case-control study with 42 patients who were matched according to disease severity at the time of diagnosis. Caregivers in both groups were interviewed using the Neuro Psychiatric Inventory (NPI), the Activities of Daily Living (ADL) scale and the Resource Utilization in Dementia scale. The quantitative outcomes were compared statistically. RESULTS: The EOAD group had a significantly higher ADL score than the LOAD group. There was a trend towards caregivers in the LOAD group spending more time helping the patients, and they needed more social services than the EOAD group. NPI scores were not significantly different, but a tendency towards a higher caregiver burden in the EOAD group was observed. CONCLUSION: The higher caregiver burden in patients with EOAD--despite a better ADL function than LOAD patients--suggests that the existing psychosocial services might be particularly insufficient for caregivers in EOAD. FUNDING: The study was funded by a three-month scholarship grant from the research fund at Roskilde Hospital. TRIAL REGISTRATION: not relevant.
