  1. 1. Predicting True Sepsis and Culture-positive Sepsis in Intensive Care Unit with Machine Learning Techniques

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Zeyuan Wu; [2024]
    Keywords : Machine Learning; Diagnosis of Sepsis; XGBoost; Logistic Regression; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : Sepsis, a serious medical condition often leading to patients requiring intensive care, has prompted numerous scientists to employ mathematical techniques to aid in its diagnosis. This thesis uses logistic regression and a machine learning technique, XGBoost, to predict true sepsis (as opposed to sepsis mimics) and culture-positive sepsis (among true sepsis) in critical care using blood test results, physiological measurements and other patient characteristics.

    Abstract : Reproduktion och ett normalt förlossningsförlopp är av stor vikt inom aveln för renrasiga hundar. Flertal svenska och internationella studier har studerat normalfysiologi, reproduktionsstörningar och valpdödlighet. Det finns multifaktoriella orsaker till ökad valpdödlighet under förlossnings-förloppet. READ MORE

  3. 3. Robustness Analysis of Perfusion Parameter Calculations

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Abstract : Cancer is one of the most common causes of death worldwide. When given optimal treatment, however, the risk of severe illness may greatly be reduced. Determining optimal treatment in turn requires evaluation of disease progression and response to potential, previous treatment. READ MORE

  4. 4. Effect of training and feeding on saliva concentrations of cartilage oligomeric matrix protein neo-epitope (COMP664) and neuropeptide Substance P in horses

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biomedical Sciences and Veterinary Public Health

  5. 5. Blood flow restriction training for people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or heart failure; A scoping review

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Avdelningen för fysioterapi

    Author : Ivar Ramström; Kevin Ulman; [2024]
    Keywords : Cardiac rehabilitation; Pulmonary rehabilitation; KAATSU; BFR; BFRT; Vascular occlusion; HF; COPD;

    Abstract : Background: Blood flow restriction training (BFRT) is an effective way of training that enables training with low external load while receiving similar effects to high load training. The lack of knowledge of BFRT for people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or heart failure (HF) led to the making of this scoping review. READ MORE
