Local Estimation of Patient Prognosis
Statistical methods that can provide patients and their healthcare providers with individual predictions are needed so that informed medical decisions can be made. Ideally an individual prediction would display the full range of possible outcomes (full predictive distribution), would be obtained …

Markers of Prognosis in Neurodegenerative Dementia
Background: A prognostic marker should provide information about course and outcome of disease, e.g. predict time to a given endpoint or rate of progression due to disease in patients or subgroups of patients. Prognostic markers could be targeted to apply during the entire clinical course or just …

Dynamic Magnetic Resonance Imaging for Tumor Prognosis
… that poorly oxygenated tumors have poor prognosis. To better understand the underlying tumor physiological mechanisms, it is very important to develop novel non-invasive approaches to accurately assess tumor microcirculation and oxygenation for further therapy planning. However, these …

Cardiac arrest and therapeutic hypothermia: Prognosis and outcome
… neurological examination for estimation of prognosis, and clinical decision making. Continuous amplitude-integrated EEG (aEEG) has been used to predict outcome in neonates suffering from asphyxia. In adults following CA and TH, the novel observation was made that a continuous aEEG-pattern …

Obesogenic Environment and Prostate Cancer Prognosis in Chicago, IL
Obesity has been linked to aggressive prostate cancer, suggesting that environments promoting obesity—referred to as obesogenic environments—may influence prostate cancer progression and mortality at the population level. While prior population-based studies have primarily examined the role of …

… (ICH), i.e., factors associated to incidence and prognosis. In the population of Malmö (Malmö 1990 cohort), it was shown that immigrants from China/Vietnam and the Former Soviet Union had higher risk of ICH than citizens born in Sweden.
