A preliminary study on developing statistical distribution table of hearing threshold deviation for otologically normal Chinese adults by Linjie WU, Yang LI, Haiying LIU, Anke ZENG, Jinzhe LI, Wei QIU, Hua ZOU, Meng YE, Meibian ZHANG

“…backgroundCurrent assessment of noise-induced hearing loss relies on the hearing threshold statistical distribution table of ISO 7029-2017 standard (ISO 7029), which is based on foreign population data and lacks a hearing threshold distribution table derived from pure-tone audiometry data of the Chinese population, hindering accurate evaluation of hearing loss in this group.ObjectiveTo establish a statistical distribution table of hearing threshold level (HTL) for otologically normal Chinese adults and to provide a scientific basis for revising the diagnostic criteria of occupational noise-induced deafness in China.MethodsA total of 1271 otologically normal Chinese adults aged 18-60 years were divided into four groups with 10-year age intervals. …”

Impact of harmonization and oversampling methods on radiomics analysis of multi-center imbalanced datasets: application to PET-based prediction of lung cancer subtypes by Dongyang Du, Isaac Shiri, Fereshteh Yousefirizi, Mohammad R. Salmanpour, Jieqin Lv, Huiqin Wu, Wentao Zhu, Habib Zaidi, Lijun Lu, Arman Rahmim

“…ComBat harmonization combined with oversampling (SMOTE) via RF yielded better performance than baseline (AUROC and G-mean of validation: 0.725 vs. 0.608 and 0.625 vs. 0.398; testing: 0.637 vs. 0.567 and 0.506 vs. 0.287), though statistical significances were not observed. Conclusions Applying harmonization and oversampling methods in multi-center imbalanced datasets can improve NSCLC-subtype prediction, but the effect varies widely across classifiers. …”
