The term heart-related disease is stated as the range of condition that impacts an individual heart negatively. In the current scenario, cardiovascular diseases are causing more deaths when compared with other ailments, it has been estimated that there are nearly 18 million deaths annually as per the recent report released by World Health Organization (WHO). It has been stated that unhealthy habits and other related aspects adopted by individuals are considered as the primary reasons for an increase in the risk of heart diseases. High cholesterol, eating more junk foods, hypertension, etc., created the issue related to heart diseases. Hence, addressing food quality and suggesting better eating habits enable individuals to enhance their living and support better health. The application of new technologies like machine learning, deep learning, and other models support doctors, nurses, and radiologists to predict heart disease effectively. Studies have stated that the various models are used mainly for the classification and forecasting of the diagnosis of heart-related diseases. The researchers have identified that critical algorithms like CART support the predictability of the disease by 93.3% whereas the conventional models possess vert less specificity. Furthermore, deep neural networks can be applied for analyzing and detecting heart failures effectively and supporting medical practitioners in making better and more critical clinical decisions making. The researchers focus on using a descriptive research study for performing the study; moreover, the researcher collates the data using the questionnaire method, which enables sourcing the critical information from the medical practitioners and supports in making critical data analysis effectively. The researchers also use secondary data modes for sourcing the information related to past studies on the related topic. The researchers use the frequency analysis, correlation analysis, and structural equation model analysis for performing the study, and the results are stated in detail in the respective sections.
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) has become a public health concern due to its misinterpretation with vascular dementia (VD) and mixed dementia Alzheimer’s disease (MXD). Therefore, an accurate differentiation of these diseases is essential for improving the treatment procedure. It has been seen that nutrition along with several other factors plays a role in the disease progression. Scientists are trying to find a solution using some machine learning (ML) techniques. The ML algorithms used for this purpose are neural networks, support vector machines, regression and many more. The current research is focused on understanding the extent of the application of machine learning tools in enhancing food management for patients with Alzheimer’s since there is no cure known for the same. A total of 100 patient data have been collected where the patients had AD, VD, and MXD. Their demographic data, dietary intake, Fazekas scores, and Hachinski scores were collected (independent variables) and analysed in IBM SPSS by considering the risk of development of AD, VD, and MXD as dependent variables. The findings showed that age is highly related ( p < 0.001 ) to the development of these three diseases and other demographics are not prioritized. Discussion of other available journal articles showed that nutritional intake, Fazekas scores, Hachinski scores, and gender are also indicators for predicting these diseases ( p < 0.001 ). Thus, this study concluded that age, gender, diet consumption, and Fazekas and Hachinski scores are important indicators for differentiating AD from other diseases, and ML can be used to create a custom nutrition plan based on the patient’s diet and stage of disease progression. Lastly, future scopes of ML have been explained in this paper.
There is a constant rise in cases of rhino-orbital mucormycosis in people with Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Generally, Mucormycosis develops in immunosuppression or debilitating diseases. In cases having head and neck involvement, the mold enters the respiratory tract with further involvement of nose and sinuses and there is consecutive progression into orbital and intracranial structures. Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is an independent risk factor for both severe COVID-19 and mucormycosis. The clinical examination and direct smears are helpful for early diagnosis of the disease and timely intervention. For the better prevention and management of such opportunistic infections in COVID-19 patients, it is prudent to establish prophylactic treatment protocols along with rational use of corticosteroids. We here report a case of Rhino-orbital Mucormycosis infection caused by Rhizopus oryzae in a COVID-19 patient with Diabetes Mellitus.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
