Effective therapies for COVID-19 are still lacking, and drug repositioning is a promising approach to address this problem. Here, we adopted medical informatics repositioning. We leveraged large prospective cohort, the UK-Biobank (UKBB, N ~ 397,000), studied associations of prior use all level-4 ATC categories (N = 819, including vaccines) with diagnosis severity. Effects drugs on risk infection, disease severity, mortality were investigated separately. Logistic regression was conducted, controlling main confounders. observed strong highly consistent protective statins. Many top-listed also cardiovascular medications, such as angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI), angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB), calcium channel blocker (CCB), beta-blockers. Some other showing included biguanides (metformin), estrogens, thyroid hormones, proton pump inhibitors, testosterone-5-alpha reductase among others. by influenza, pneumococcal, several vaccines. Subgroup interaction analyses which revealed differences in effects various subgroups. For example, flu/pneumococcal vaccines weaker obese individuals, while protection statins stronger patients. To conclude, our analysis many candidates, example medications. Further studies required validation.

Since the beginning of coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) pandemic, efforts in defining risk factors and associations between severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2), clinical, molecular features have initiated. After three years it became evident that men higher adverse outcomes. Such evidence provided impetus for biological fundaments such a gender disparity. Our objective was to analyze most recent literature with aim relationship COVID-19 fertility, particular, we assessed interplay SARS-CoV-2 testosterone systematic review from December 2019 (first novel Hubei province) until March 2022. As fundamental basis understanding, articles pertaining preclinical aspects explaining disparity (n=9) were included. The main categories analyzed being infected according levels (n=5), impact serum on outcomes (n=23), after infection (n=19). Preclinical studies mainly evaluated relation angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE2) its androgen-mediated regulation, exploring few. Although publications evaluating effect fertility found low infection, follow-up short, some also suggesting no alterations during recovery. More conclusive findings observed levels, generally at experiencing worse (i.e., admission intensive care units, longer hospitalization, death). Interestingly, an inverse women, where associated finding may provide meaningful insights better patient counselling individualization pathways hypogonadism.

Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), causing a disease called COVID-19, is class of acute respiratory syndrome that has considerably affected the global economy and healthcare system. This virus diagnosed using traditional technique known as Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) test. However, RT-PCR customarily outputs lot false-negative incorrect results. Current works indicate COVID-19 can also be imaging resolutions, including CT scans, X-rays, blood tests. Nevertheless, X-rays scans cannot always used for patient screening because high costs, radiation doses, an insufficient number devices. Therefore, there requirement less expensive faster diagnostic model to recognize positive negative cases COVID-19. Blood tests are easily performed cost than Since biochemical parameters in routine vary during infection, they may supply physicians with exact information about diagnosis study reviewed some newly emerging artificial intelligence (AI)-based methods diagnose We gathered research resources inspected 92 articles were carefully chosen from variety publishers, such IEEE, Springer, Elsevier, MDPI. Then, these studies classified into two tables which contain use machine Learning deep models while test datasets. In studies, diagnosing Random Forest logistic regression most widely learning performance metrics accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, AUC. Finally, we conclude by discussing analyzing datasets detection. survey starting point novice-/beginner-level researcher perform on classification.

Machine learning (ML) has been used in different ways the fight against COVID-19 disease. ML models have developed, e.g., for diagnostic or prognostic purposes and using various modalities of data (e.g., textual, visual, structured). Due to many specific aspects this disease its evolution over time, there is still not enough understanding all relevant factors influencing course particular patients. In our work, was a strong involvement medical expert following human-in-the-loop principle. This very important but usually neglected part knowledge extraction (KE) process. Our research shows that explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) may significantly support KE. focused on two scenarios. first scenario, we aimed discover whether adding information about predominant variant impacts performance models. second classification concerning need an intensive care unit given patient connection with explainability AI methods. We nine algorithms, namely XGBoost, CatBoost, LightGBM, logistic regression, Naive Bayes, random forest, SGD, SVM-linear, SVM-RBF. measured resulting precision, accuracy, AUC metrics. Subsequently, from best-performing approaches as follows: (a) features extracted automatically by forward stepwise selection (FSS); (b) attributes their interactions discovered model Both were compared selected experts advance based domain expertise. experiments showed did influence It also turned out much more precise identification significant than FSS. Explainability methods identified almost same interesting among them, which discussed point view. The results consequences are discussed.

Abstract Background: During the COVID-19 pandemic, clinical trial recruitment cannot be carried out due to travel restrictions, transmission risks and other factors, resulting in stagnation of a large number ongoing or upcoming trials. Objective: An intelligent screening app was developed using artificial intelligence technology rapidly pre-screen potential patients for phase I solid tumor drug Methods: A total 429 process records were collected from 27 trials at First Affiliated Hospital Bengbu Medical College April 2018 May 2021. Features experimental data analyzed, collinearity (principal component analysis) strong correlation (χ2 test) among features eliminated. XGBoost, Random Forest, Naive Bayes used sort weight importance features. Finally, pre-screening models constructed classification machine learning algorithm, optimal model selected. Results: Among records, 33 generated by repeated subject participation different trials, remaining 396 246 (62.12%) screened successfully. The gold standard success is final judgment made principal investigator (PI) based on protocol. Venn diagram identify important feature intersections algorithms. After intersecting top 15 characteristic variables models, 9 common obtained: age, sex, distance residence central institution, histology, stage, tumorectomy, interval diagnosis/postoperative screening, chemotherapy, ECOG (Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group, ECOG) score. To select subset, expanded 12 subsets, performance subsets under validated. results showed that performance, accuracy practicability achieved XGBoost with subset. could accurately predict rates both internal (AUC =3D 0.895) external 0.796) validation, has been transformed into convenient tool facilitate its application settings. Subjects probability exceeding equaling threshold had higher successfully screened. Conclusion: Based model, we created an online prediction calculator visualization -- ISSP (Intelligent Screening Service Platform), which can screen effectively solve problem space time interval. On mobile terminal, it realizes matching between projects patients, completes rapid subjects, so as obtain more subjects. As auxiliary tool, optimizes provides services investigators patients.

Background Most existing prognostic models of COVID-19 require imaging manifestations and laboratory results as predictors, which are only available in the post-hospitalization period. Therefore, we aimed to develop validate a model assess in-hospital death risk patients using routinely predictors at hospital admission.
