Worldwide, chronic pain has established as one of the foremost medical issues due to its 35% of comorbidity with depression and many other psychological problems. Traditionally, self-report (VAS scale) or physicist inspection (OPI scale) perform the pain assessment; nonetheless, both methods do not usually coincide [14]. Regarding self-assessment, several patients are not able to complete it objectively, like young children or patients with limited expression abilities. The lack of objectivity in the metrics draws the main problem of the clinical analysis of pain. In response, various efforts have tried concerning the inclusion of objective metrics, among which stand out the Prkachin and Solomon Pain Intensity (PSPI) metric defined by face appearance [5]. This work presents an in-depth learning approach to pain recognition considering deep facial representations and sequence analysis. Co...

Background Describing the prevalence and trends of cardiometabolic risk factors that are associated with noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) is crucial for monitoring progress, planning prevention, and providing evidence to support policy efforts. We aimed to analyse the transition in body-mass index (BMI), obesity, blood pressure, raised blood pressure, and diabetes in the Americas, between 1980 and 2014. Methods We did a pooled analysis of population-based studies with data on anthropometric measurements, biomarkers for diabetes, and blood pressure from adults aged 18 years or older. A Bayesian model was used to estimate trends in BMI, raised blood pressure (systolic blood pressure =140 mm Hg or diastolic blood pressure =90 mm Hg), and diabetes (fasting plasma glucose =7.0 mmol/L, history of diabetes, or diabetes treatment) from 1980 to 2014, in 37 countries and six subregions of the Ameri...
