Abstract With the development of sports rehabilitation, accurate assessment of the patient’s rehabilitation process has become the key to enhance the rehabilitation effect. To solve the problems of inaccurate recogniti...

Abstract NarxCare®, a proprietary opioid risk scoring system embedded in Prescription Drug Monitoring Programs (PDMPs), has generated significant patient complaints. We adhered to the technical specifications and applie...

BackgroundImmune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have transformed treatment of locally advanced gastric cancer (LAGC), yet response heterogeneity and immune-related adverse events (irAEs) remain major challenges. Systemic i...

Automated scoring of mathematical solutions is challenging due to the diversity of solution strategies and the need to assess both correctness and reasoning. We present SymbAlign++, a hybrid framework that combines symbo...

Background Despite expanding therapeutic options, the prognosis of lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) remains poor. Immune checkpoint inhibitors benefit only a subset of patients, and epithelial–mesenchymal transition...

Background and Study Aim. T20 cricket is characterized by rapid scoring, high-risk shot selection, and demanding fielding requirements. In this format, team performance depends on how effectively runs are distributed acr...

Spiking neural networks (SNNs) offer a biologically inspired, energy-efficient alternative to conventional artificial neural networks (ANNs). However, deep SNNs struggle to process complex EEG signals because their spike...

Background: We investigated factors related to pitching performance—defined by pitch velocity and accuracy—based on baseball experience, pitching workload, anthropometrics, and range of motion and strength (grip and ...

Abstract Background South Africa is home to a rich tapestry of cultural and linguistic diversity, with 11 official spoken languages and South African Sign Language recognised as the twelfth. While this plurality reflects...

Abstract This study introduces an intelligent, large language model (LLM)–driven feedback system designed to assess and enhance students’ programming tasks through semantic comparison and pedagogically contextualized...

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) features chronic low-grade inflammation in white adipose tissue (WAT), where adipocytes and innate immune cells engage in immunometabolic crosstalk. Mitochondrial damage-associated molecula...

Abstract Background Mortality prediction in critically ill patients is commonly performed with scoring systems such as SOFA and APACHE II. The arterial-to-end-tidal carbon dioxide gradient [P(a–et)CO₂], which can be ...

Background: Reading proficiency in English as a First Additional Language remains a critical challenge in South Africa and other countries. The 2021 Progress in International Reading Literacy Study starkly highlighted t...

Abstract Background and hypothesis CD5L is a glycoprotein induced during inflammation and makes a life-saving contribution in infection and sepsis. Here, we explored the immunomodulatory effect of CD5L in rheumatoid arth...

Abstract Lameness in cattle is a significant welfare and economic concern. To address this, we developed an end-to-end deep learning framework for 24/7 lameness monitoring using top-down depth images of cattle. The frame...

The present study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of recreational citizen science in biodiversity monitoring. The goal was to evaluate whether a minimal training protocol can maintain data quality while engaging l...

Abstract Background Actigraphy is widely used in research settings to objectively assess sleep–wake patterns; however, inconsistencies in device algorithms, hardware capabilities, and scoring procedures pose challenges...

Abstract Objective Acute appendicitis (AA) is one of the most common causes of acute abdomen. Its diagnosis requires the combined evaluation of clinical, laboratory, and radiological findings. This study aimed to compare...

ABSTRACT Background and Aims The world has been devastated by the pandemic caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) from 2019 to 2023 which necessitated stratifying patients into mild, m...

ABSTRACT Objective Although the Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) score, Toronto Extremity Salvage Score (TESS), and Knee Society Score (KSS) are widely used for postoperative functional evaluation in patients undergo...

Background: Distal radius fractures (DRFs) are among the commonest fractures encountered by orthopaedic surgeons. Primary goal in the treatment of DRFs is to restore articular congruity. Evidence is inconsistent about th...

BackgroundFibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) inhibitors (FGFRis) benefit selected cholangiocarcinoma (CHOL) patients, yet responses remain heterogeneous and are not fully explained by canonical FGFR alterations. Cl...
