Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

This study presents a novel method for classifying ischemic stroke aetiology using deep learning models, focusing on cardioembolism and large artery atherosclerosis. Recognizing the global burden of ischemic strokes and the complexity of their causes, we utilize convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to analyze medical imaging data. The method aims to accurately identify the origins of blood clots in stroke patients, enhancing diagnostic accuracy and treatment efficiency. Our approach demonstrates promising results in stroke classification, offering significant implications for medical practice, particularly in regions like Kazakhstan with high stroke prevalence. This research contributes to the evolving field of applying artificial intelligence in healthcare, specifically in stroke management.
