  Non-invasively predicting the risk of cancer metastasis before surgery can play an essential role in determining which patients can benefit from neoadjuvant chemotherapy. This study aims to investigate and test the advantages of applying a random projection algorithm to develop and optimize a radiomics-based machine learning model to predict peritoneal metastasis in gastric cancer patients using a small and imbalanced computed tomography (CT) image dataset.
 
  A retrospective dataset involving CT images acquired from 159 patients is assembled, including 121 and 38 cases with and without peritoneal metastasis, respectively. A computer-aided detection scheme is first applied to segment primary gastric tumor volumes and initially compute 315 image features. Then, five gradients boosting machine (GBM) models embedded with five feature selection methods (including random projection algorithm, principal component analysis, least absolute shrinkage, and selection operator, maximum relevance and minimum redundancy, gorithm is a promising method to generate optimal feature vector, improving the performance of machine learning based prediction models.
  Glaucoma is currently a major cause for irreversible blindness worldwide. A risk factor and the only therapeutic control parameter is the intraocular pressure (IOP). The IOP is determined with tonometers, whose measurements are inevitably influenced by the geometry of the eye. Even though the corneal mechanics have been investigated to improve accuracy of Goldmann and air pulse tonometry, influences of geometric properties of the eye on an acoustic self-tonometer approach are still unresolved.
 
  In order to understand and compensate for measurement deviations resulting from the geometric uniqueness of eyes, a finite element eye model is designed that considers all relevant eye components and is adjustable to all physiological shapes of the human eye.
 
  The general IOP-dependent behavior of the eye model is validated by laboratory measurements on porcine eyes. The difference between simulation and measurement is below 8µm for IOP levels from 5 to 40mmHg. The adaptive eye model is then used to quantify system of (but not only) the acoustic self-tonometer.
  Assignment of medical imaging procedure protocols requires extensive knowledge about patient's data, usually included in radiological request forms and radiological reports. Assignment of protocol is required prior to radiological study acquisition, determining procedure for each patient. The automation of this protocol assignment process could improve the efficiency of patient's diagnosis. Artificial intelligence has proven to be of great help in these healthcare-related problems, and specifically the application of Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques for extracting information from text reports has been successfully used in automatic text classification tasks.
 
  In this paper, machine learning classification models based on NLP have been developed using patient's data present in radiological reports and radiological imaging protocols. We have used a real corpus provided by the private medical center "HT medica" composed of almost 700,000 Computed Tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) examinations obtained during routine clinical use. We have compared several models including traditional machine learning methods such as support vector machine and random forest, neural networks and transfer language techniques.
 
  The results obtained are encouraging taking into account that the system is performing a complex text multiclass classification task. Specifically, for the best proposed system we obtain 92.2% accuracy in the CT dataset and 86.9% in the MRI dataset.
 
  The best machine learning system is potentially efficient, quality and cost effective. For this reason it is currently used in real scenarios by radiologists as decision support tool for assigning protocols of CT and MRI studies.

From January 2012 to December 2018, we evaluated the trends of prescribing methylphenidate-osmotic-controlled release oral delivery system (OROS), atomoxetine, and guanfacine as monotherapy. In boys, methylphenidate-OROS and atomoxetine prescriptions decreased from 46.5 % to 37.2 % and 18.6 % to 15.6 %, respectively. Prescriptions of guanfacine increased from 0.0 % to 12.3 %. In girls, the methylphenidate-OROS prescriptions was not significantly different (37.0 % to 26.4 %); however, atomoxetine decreased from 23.1 % to 16.3 %, and guanfacine increased from 0.0 % to 12.8 %. Methylphenidate-OROS and atomoxetine prescriptions changed to guanfacine between 2012 and 2018.
  The aim of this retrospective study is to investigate the genetic etiology and propose a diagnostic strategy for pediatric patients with epilepsy and comorbid intellectual disability (ID).
 
  From September 2014 to May 2020, a total of 102 pediatric patients diagnosed with epilepsy with co-morbid ID with unknown causes were included in this study. All patients underwent tests of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array for chromosomal abnormalities. Whole exome sequencing (WES) was consecutively performed in patients without diagnostic copy number variants (CNVs) (n = 85) for single nucleotide variants (SNVs). Subgroup analyses based on the age of seizure onset and ID severity were done.
 
  The overall diagnostic yield of genetic aberrations was 33.3 % (34/102), which comprised 50.0 % with diagnostic CNVs and 50.0 % with diagnostic SNVs. The yield nominally increased with ID severity and decreased with age of seizure onset, though this result was not statistically significant. The diagnostic yield of SNVs in patients with seizure onset in the first year of life (25.
