• Abstract: Long COVID is a general term of post-acute sequelae of COVID-19. Patients with long COVID can endure long-lasting symptoms including fatigue, headache, dyspnea and anosmia, etc. Identifying the cohorts with severe long-term complications in COVID-19 could benefit the treatment planning and resource arrangement. However, due to the heterogeneous phenotype presented in long COVID patients, it is difficult to predict their outcomes from their longitudinal data. In this study, we proposed a spatiotemporal attention mechanism to weigh feature importance jointly from the temporal dimension and feature space. Considering that medical examinations can have interchangeable orders in adjacent time points, we restricted the learning of short-term dependency with a Local-LSTM and the learning of long-term dependency with the joint spatiotemporal attention. We also compared the proposed method with several state-of-the-art methods and a method in clinical practice. The methods are evaluated on a hard-to-acquire clinical dataset of patients with long COVID. Experimental results show the Local-LSTM with joint spatiotemporal attention outperformed related methods in outcome prediction. The proposed method provides a clinical tool for the severity assessment of long COVID.

  We propose a novel Historical-Constrained Large Language Models (HC-LLM) framework for Radiology report generation. Our approach extracts both time-shared and time-specific features from longitudinal chest X-rays and diagnostic reports to capture disease progression. Notably, our approach performs well even without historical data during testing and can be easily adapted to other multimodal large models.

  Quantifying COVID-19 infection over time is an important task to manage the hospitalization of patients during a global pandemic. Deep learning-based approaches have been proposed to help radiologists automatically quantify COVID-19 pathologies on longitudinal CT scans. It is challenging to collect a large-scale dataset, especially for longitudinal training. In this study, we propose a new self-supervised learning method to effectively train longitudinal networks for the quantification of COVID-19 infections.
