Originally developed as research tools, different classification criteria sets for systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are also used to diagnose SLE in routine clinical care. The recently developed European League Against Rheumatism/American College of Rheumatology (EULAR/ACR) 2019 criteria set is noted to perform better than previous SLE…[Read more]

Seventy-four SDU patients met inclusion criteria and were compared to 58 patients admitted to an NICU. There was no difference in rates of NICU (re-)admission (7 vs 2,

= .17) or rates of HE (3 vs 5,

= .28). Median NICU days were 0 versus 1 (

< .001). Step-down unit admission was associated with shorter LOS (3 vs 4 days,

As compared with patients with normoalbuminuria, multivariate analyses showed that the patients with microalbuminuria and macroalbuminuria had 2.38-, and 3.48-fold higher risk for in-hospital mortality, respectively (p < 0.001). Multivariate analyses also showed that UACR >102.6mg/g (OR 1.76; 95% CI, 0.99-3.16; p=0.011) was independently…[Read more]

The algorithm requires no prior training or knowledge of the camera’s internal parameters. With geometric features from a monocular camera, the method is robust to calibration errors and image noise. We compared the estimated curved layout against the ground truth and measured the percentage of pixels that were incorrectly classified. The…[Read more]
