Impact of the Japanese Diagnosis Procedure Combination-based Payment System in Japan
TL;DR: The introduction of DPC in Japan could not decrease the absolute value of medical costs and structural problems remain in the flat-fee payment system, such as examination and treatment of low quality, selection of patients and up coding.
Journal ArticleDOI
Support Vector Machine-Based Feature Selection for Classification of Liver Fibrosis Grade in Chronic Hepatitis C
Zheng Jiang,Kazunobu Yamauchi,Kentaro Yoshioka,Aoki Kazuma,Susumu Kuroyanagi,Akira Iwata,Jun Yang,Kai Wang +7 more
TL;DR: This study showed that application of this model could identify CHC patients with clinically significant fibrosis with a high degree of accuracy and may decrease the need for liver biopsy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cost-Effectiveness of Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillators in Brugada Syndrome Treatment
TL;DR: It is suggested that prophylactic implantation of an ICD has good cost-effectiveness in patients with Brugada syndrome who are at high risk of sudden death.
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficacy of Interferon Treatment for Chronic Hepatitis C Predicted by Feature Subset Selection and Support Vector Machine
Jun Yang,Anto Satriyo Nugroho,Kazunobu Yamauchi,Kentaro Yoshioka,Jiang Zheng,Kai Wang,Ken Kato,Susumu Kuroyanagi,Akira Iwata +8 more
TL;DR: Analysis of selected features show that HCV-RNA level, hepatobiopsy, HCV genotype, ALP and CHE are the most significant features for interferon efficacy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Use of an artificial neural network to localize accessory pathways of Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome with 12-lead electrocardiogram.
Damin Huang,Kazunobu Yamauchi,Yasuya Inden,Jun Yang,Zheng Jiang,Hiromasa Ida,Kimiko Katsuyama,Kai Wang,Ken Kato,Hiroki Kato +9 more
TL;DR: It is possible to predict the sites of accessory pathways with Wolff–Parkinson–White syndrome in more detail by using an artificial neural network with a 12-lead electrocardiogram, and when this method is incorporated into a conventional automatic electrocardsiogram system which could analyze delta waves and ORS complex, it will become useful to automatically diagnose the locations of the accessory pathways.
