D A blood test that accurately predicts a patient's likelihood of dying from heart disease or a stroke (中风) has been developed.Researchers took samples of blood from 22,949 people and analyzed the levels of about 5,000 proteins within it. They then used machine learning to detect whether...
Objectives(1) To establish the likelihood of dying within 12 months for a cohort of hospital inpatients in New Zealand (NZ) on a fixed census date; (2) to identify associations between likelihood of death and key sociodemographic, diagnostic and service-related factors and (3) to compare resul...
Among cases within that place, the likelihood of dying was estimated to be 1.39-times greater than that of cases different from those diagnosed elsewhere around the state ( = 0.009).ConclusionThe prognosis for men with prostate cancer may differ, in part, by virtue of where they live when ...

Objective: To see whether predictions of patients' likelihood of dying in-hospital differed among severity methods. Design: Retrospective cohort. Patients: 18,016 persons 18 years of age and older managed medically for pneumonia; 1,732 (9.6%) in-hospital deaths. Methods: Probability of death was...
Currently, doctors assess the likelihood of patients suffering heart problems by looking at factors including weight, blood pressure, age and cholesterol (胆固醇) levels. However, blood protein analysis can provide more accurate clues to the state of a person’s health. The technology was found to...
Due to advances in healthcare, you’ll probably live a lot longer than you think you will. According toAARP, someone who retires at age 55 needs to make their savings last an average of 28.6 years. The earlier you retire, the longer you’ll need to stretch out your retirement savings....
Since big dogs typically die at a much younger age, they actually have less of a risk to develop cancer than medium-sized dogs, Lunney said. "That's simply because they're dying younger," he added. A Scottish Terrier, also known as the Scottie is seen in an undated stock ph...
