Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleA Robust Ensemble Convolutional Neural Networks for Diagnosing Chest DiseasesMansour Ali Alhlalat, Ahmad Abdel-Aziz Sharieh, Mohammed Belal Al-ZoubiRadiologists employ X-ray images to differentiate various chest diseases. Given the intricate and meticulous nature of this diagnostic procedure, the assistance of automated models becomes imperative in detecting and diagnosing diseases from X-ray images. This research paper proposed a novel approach called Ensemble Convolutional Neural Network for Diagnosing Chest Diseases (ECDCNet), aimed at accurately and efficiently diagnosing fifteen different chest … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 19, Issue 12 · 27 Oct 2023 · 5,104 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRefining Chest X-ray Interpretation with Deep Transfer Learning TechniquesR. Sriramkumar, K. Selvakumar, J. JeganChest X-rays are essential diagnostic tools for thoracic diseases, but different doctors' interpretations can differ greatly, which frequently results in inconsistent diagnoses. By using deep transfer learning techniques, this study seeks to improve the accuracy of Chest X-ray interpretations. More accurate and effective analysis can be accomplished with the growing potential of artificial intelligence (AI) in medical imaging, especially through … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 10 · 27 Nov 2025 · 2,644 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractClassification of X-Ray Images Using Convolutional Neural Network and Automatic Hyper-Parameter Selection to Detect Tuberculosis (TB)Biswaranjan Debata, Rojalina Priyadarshini, Sudhir Kumar Mohapatra, Tarikwa Tesfa BedaneTuberculosis (TB) is a major public health issue in India, contributing significantly to the global burden of respiratory diseases. This study introduces a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN)--based model for the early and cost-effective detection of TB using chest X-ray images. The proposed model, featuring 13 layers and automated hyperparameter selection, classifies images as infected or not infected. It is evaluated … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 21 Jan 2025 · 6,983 accessesView PDF Cite

Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractNon-Specific Interstitial Pneumonia Overlapping Tuberculosis: A Diagnostic Challenge in ElderlyPradeep Chakaravarthy, Divanshee Sharma, Manjunath Totaganti et al.Non-Specific Interstitial Pneumonia (NSIP) is linked to numerous etiologies, including connective tissue diseases, certain drugs, HIV and idiopathic causes. We present a case of an 82-year-old woman with subacute onset shortness of breath as the presenting feature of Non-specific interstitial pneumonia. Chest imaging demonstrated bilateral infiltrates and tentatively diagnosed as NSIP and started on Tyrosine kinase inhibitor - Nintedanib. But … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 5 Jan 2022 · 6,168 accessesView PDF Cite

Saleem, Samir T. Abdullah et al.Problem statement: Breast milk contain protective factors as soluble CD14, L-Fucose and Sialic acid which increase the innate immunity and level of intelligence, decrease the incidence of gastroenteritis, chest and other systemic diseases in newly born infants. In the present study the role of soluble CD14, L-Fucose and Sialic acid, in increasing the immunity in breastfed infants were studied to … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 27 Apr 2011 · 10,188 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProgressive Resistance Training on Elderly HIV+ Patients: Does it Work?Paula Maria Loiola De Souza, Wilson Jacob Filho, José Maria Santarém et al.Elderly people present significant alterations on body composition and physical fitness, compromising their quality of life. Chronic diseases, including HIV/AIDS, worsen this situation by increasing aging effects on body composition and muscle strength. Resistance exercises are prescribed by major health organizations for improving fitness and promoting a shift towards a healthier and more independent aging. In addition, recovering strength and … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,740 accessesView PDF Cite
