[Medical informatics--today and tomorrow].

The status of medical informatics, a comparatively new biomedical discipline beginning to develop in the second half of the 20th century, is described at the transition into the 21st century. The appearance of new information and communicat...

Corrigendum: The “Jack-of-all-Trades” Flagellum From Salmonella and E. coli Was Horizontally Acquired From an Ancestral β-Proteobacterium

The Need for a Philosophy of Medical Informatics

In the beginning of the development of our profession he had a chair in Biophysics and Biomathematics at the University of Paris, where I visited him for the first time in 1967 during a WHO scholarship [1], and later at the university in Mo...

Structural relationships within medical informatics

Medical informatics is the application of information science and information technology to the theoretical and practical problems of biomedical research, clinical practice, and medical education. Although it is broadly interdisciplinary, i...

Medical Informatics in Medical Research

OBJECTIVES: Computers are widely used for data management in clinical trials in the developed countries, unlike in developing countries. Dependable systems are vital for data management, and medical decision making in clinical research. Mon...

Trends in Proportion of Delirium Among Older Emergency Department Patients in South Korea, 2017–2022

Introduction: Delirium is a critical neuropsychiatric condition that surged among older adults during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, likely due to social isolation resulting from distancing measures. In this study we exam...

Data on the cytotoxicity of chlorogenic acid in 3D cultures of HT-29 cells

Functional foods, beyond basic nutrition, offer health benefits to consumers thanks to the presence of bioactive compounds such as some phytochemicals [1,2]. Today, these foods are of particular interest in biomedical research due to their ...

The Late Bronze Age settlement site of Březnice: Magnetometer survey data

The archaeological site of Březnice (Czechia) represents one of the large settlements of the Late Bronze Age (Ha A2/B1, 14C: 1124–976 BC) in Bohemia. The site became known mainly for a high number of so-called ‘trenches’, oblong pit feature...

A real-world clinical validation for AI-based MRI monitoring in multiple sclerosis

Abstract Modern management of MS targets No Evidence of Disease Activity (NEDA): no clinical relapses, no magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) disease activity and no disability worsening. While MRI is the principal tool available to neurologis...

Effects of individualized rTMS on functional connectivity related to the default mode network and frontal-parietal network in major depressive disorder: exploratory analysis of a randomized controlled trial

Objective: Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has been shown to alleviate depressive and anxiety symptoms in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD), typically by targeting the dorsolateral (DLPFC) or dorsomedial pref...

Central vein sign: A diagnostic biomarker in multiple sclerosis (CAVS-MS) study protocol for a prospective multicenter trial

The specificity and implementation of current MRI-based diagnostic criteria for multiple sclerosis (MS) are imperfect. Approximately 1 in 5 of individuals diagnosed with MS are eventually determined not to have the disease, with overrelianc...
