The main risk for the fetus is extreme prematurity (less than 33 weeks) and very premature birth (less than 29 weeks), with its consequences on neonatal mortality and the risk of serious neurological morbidity. The prognosis of premature babies is very dependent on perinatal care. Care becomes even more delicate when it comes to multiple bir...

Researchers posit that leaders who exploit their subordinates might be tacitly accepted in high-power-distance cultures such as China, whereas ...

Depression treatment often involves a complex and lengthy trial-and-error process, where clinicians sequentially prescribe medications to identify the most effective treatment for each patient. This approach can lead to delayed recovery, unnecessary side effects, and increased healthcare costs. To address this challenge, we present a Reinforcement Learning (RL)-based framework designed to optimize antidepressant treatment strategies through dynamic, patient-specific decision-making. The proposed...
