Deep Learning for Risky Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Event Prediction in Hypertensive Patients by Francesco Goretti, Ali Salman, Alessandra Cartocci, Alessio Luschi, Leandro Pecchia, Massimo Milli, Ernesto Iadanza

“…Additionally, we explored transfer learning (TL) to enhance the model capabilities by adapting our AF classification model to address CE classification challenges, effectively transferring learned features and patterns, without extensive retraining. As a result, our models achieved accuracy rates of 77% for AF and 82% for CEs, with high sensitivity, highlighting the efficacy of synthetic data generation and transfer learning in improving classification performance across diverse medical datasets. …”

Remaining Driving Range Prediction of Electric Vehicles Based on Personalized Driving Behavior in Complex Traffic Scenarios by Yu Jiang, Jianhua Guo, Dong Xie, Zhuoran Hou, Jintao Deng

“…Furthermore, an energy consumption model that integrates the physical model with machine learning techniques is constructed to accurately predict energy consumption rates under future driving cycles. By coupling this consumption rate with battery load in an equivalent circuit model (ECM), the RDR is accurately predicted. …”

Influence of copper nanoparticles on the growth characteristics of tumors in white outbreed rats by P. S. Kachesova, I. A. Goroshinskaya, G. V. Zhukova, E. V. Shalashnaya, I. A. Kaplieva, V. B. Borodulin

“…The effects of nanodispersed copper differed in tumors with different histological structures and growth patterns. Experiments on a transplantable, slowly growing sarcoma 45 showed a decrease in the specific tumor growth rate after a single injection of nanoparticles (1.25 mg/kg), a decrease in tumor size could be observed after 4 injections (a total dose of 5 mg/kg). …”

In vivo estimation of motor unit intrinsic properties in individuals with spinal cord injury by Zhihao Duan, Asta Kizyte, Emelie Butler Forslund, Elena M. Gutierrez-Farewik, Pawel Herman, Ruoli Wang

“…This finding suggested that the MUs in the TA have a slower recovery period before becoming excitable again, which may result in a lower firing rate of MUs in the TA muscle. No significant differences were observed in the soleus and gastrocnemius medialis muscles between the SCI and control groups for either the soma size or inert period parameters. …”

Frequency of fetal blood sampling, delivery mode and neonatal outcome after revised CTG‐classification and updated lactate meter in Sweden: An observational study by Klara Gröndal, Erika Gyllencreutz, Stina Wretler, Kari Johansson, Malin Holzmann

“…We hypothesized that with the revised CTG classification, which accepts more fetal heart rate patterns as normal than the previous, the frequency of FBS would be lower, the proportion of acidemia at FBS and adverse neonatal outcomes would be higher among sampled fetuses, but not among the entire laboring population, and the higher lactate readings might increase the proportion of cesarean delivery in general anesthesia and cesarean delivery above vacuum extraction. …”
