Advanced Non-linear Mathematical Model for the Prediction of the Activity of a Putative Anticancer Agent in Human-to-mouse Cancer Xenografts
(2020)Background/Aim: Mathematical models have long been considered as important tools in cancer biology and therapy. Herein, we present an advanced non-linear mathematical model that can predict accurately the effect of an ... -
Application of a One-Dimensional Computational Model for the Prediction of Deposition from a Dry Powder Inhaler
(2017)Background: Accurate prediction of the regional deposition of inhaled dry powders as a function of powder properties and breathing pattern is a long-term research goal for pulmonary drug delivery. In the present work, ... -
Artificial Intelligence in Cardiology—A Narrative Review of Current Status
(2022)Artificial intelligence (AI) is an integral part of clinical decision support systems (CDSS), offering methods to approximate human reasoning and computationally infer decisions. Such methods are generally based on medical ... -
Bayesian latent class models to estimate diagnostic test accuracies of COVID-19 tests
(2021)[No abstract available] -
Cadherin and Wnt signaling pathways as key regulators in diabetic nephropathy
(2021)Aim A recent meta-analysis of genome-wide linkage studies (GWLS) has identified multiple genetic regions suggestive of linkage with DN harboring hundreds of genes. Moving this number of genetic loci forward into biological ... -
Challenges in developing methods for quantifying the effects of weather and climate on water-associated diseases: A systematic review
(2017)Infectious diseases attributable to unsafe water supply, sanitation and hygiene (e.g. Cholera, Leptospirosis, Giardiasis) remain an important cause of morbidity and mortality, especially in low-income countries. Climate ... -
Determination of the number of water molecules in the proton pathway of bacteriorhodopsin using neutron diffraction data
(2003)It has been shown that water molecules participate in the proton pathway of bacteriorhodopsin. Large efforts have been made to determine with various biophysical methods the number of water molecules involved. Neutron ... -
Drones for Automated External Defibrillator Delivery: Where Do We Stand?
(2020)Background: Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is an important cause of mortality and disability worldwide. The health care community hoped that, with the development of the automated external defibrillator (AED), the ... -
The effect of strain hardening on the dynamic response of human artery segments
(2017)Background: When subjected to time-dependent blood pressure, human arteries undergo large deformations, exhibiting mainly nonlinear hyperelastic type of response. The mechanical response of arteries depends on the health ... -
Estimation of diffusion coefficients in acetone - Cellulose acetate solutions
(1999)The mutual and the self-diffusion coefficients of the acetone-cellulose acetate system are determined by using established gravimetric measurements of the acetone evaporation rate. The process is studied as a one-dimensional ... -
Fatigue of textiles used in vascular surgery: Application to carotid endarterectomy
(2021)Fatigue is a material-based phenomenon playing a significant role in the mechanical behavior of components and structures. Although fatigue has been well studied for traditional materials, such as metals, its underlying ... -
Finite element modeling to expand the UMCCA model to describe biofilm mechanical behavior
(2005)In order to understand the influence of biofilm's physical and microbiological structures on its mechanical behavior, a finite element model that describes the structural mechanics of a composite solid is linked to the ... -
Generalization of Youden index for multiple-class classification problems applied to the assessment of externally validated cognition in Parkinson disease screening
(2013)Routine cognitive screening in Parkinson disease (PD) has become essential for management, to track progression and to assess clinical status in therapeutic trials. Patients with mild cognitive impairment (PD-MCI) are more ... -
A homogenization model of the Voigt type for skeletal muscle
(2017)A three-dimensional constitutive model for skeletal muscle incorporating microstructural characteristics is developed and numerically implemented in a general purpose finite element program. The proposed model takes into ... -
Imaging predictive factors of abdominal aortic aneurysm growth
(2021)Background: Variable imaging methods may add important information about abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) progression. The aim of this study is to assess available literature data regarding the predictive imaging factors ... -
In silico exploration of the effects of host genotype and nutrition on the genetic parameters of lambs challenged with gastrointestinal parasites
(2007)An in silico mathematical model was used to explore the effect of, and the interaction between, (i) nutrition, (ii) genotype for growth and (iii) genotype for resistance, on the estimates of genetic parameters for resistance ... -
Lighting standards revisited: Introduction of a mathematical model for the assessment of the impact of illuminance on visual acuity
(2021)Purpose: Primary objective of present study is to introduce a contemporary methodology for the lighting standards update addressing both normophakic and pseudophakic patients. Methods: For the sake of our study, we ... -
