The authors looked at public knowledge regarding suggested daily limits for sugar intake and then looked at how sugar levels vary in the same drink obtained from different sources and across different days.
Read More...Applying machine learning to breast cancer diagnosis: A high school student’s exploration using R
The authors combine fine needle aspiration biopsy and machine learning algorithms to develop a breast cancer detection method suitable for resource-constrained regions that lack access to mammograms.
Read More...Using advanced machine learning and voice analysis features for Parkinson’s disease progression prediction
The authors looked at the ability to use audio clips to analyze the progression of Parkinson's disease.
Read More...A 1D model of ultrasound waves for diagnosing of hepatomegaly and cirrhosis
The authors created a 1D model to diagnose hepatomegaly and cirrhosis via ultrasound of the liver.
Read More...The impact of genetic, drug, and procedural factors on cardiac xenograft survival days in non-human primates
Due to a critical shortage of donor hearts, researchers are exploring cardiac xenotransplantation—transplanting animal hearts into humans—as a potential solution. This study synthesized nearly two decades of preclinical research to evaluate multiple factors affecting xenograft survival.
Read More...How artificial intelligence deep learning models can be used to accurately determine lung cancers
The authors looked at the ability of different deep learning models to predict the presence of lung cancer from chest CT scans. They found that a pre-trained CNN model performed better than an autoencoder model.

This study compares the performance of two deep learning models, U-Net and DeconvNet, for segmenting gliomas from MRI scans.
Read More...Mechanism and cytotoxicity of A1874 proteolysis targeting chimera on CT26 colon carcinoma cell line
This study investigates the effects of the PROTAC compound A1874 on CT26 colon carcinoma cells, focusing on its ability to degrade the protein BRD4 and reduce cell viability. While A1874 had previously shown effectiveness in other colon cancer cell lines, its impact on CT26 cells was unknown.

Arrhythmias vary in type and treatment, and ECGs are used to detect them, though human interpretation can be inconsistent. The researchers tested four tree-based algorithms (gradient boosting, random forest, decision tree, and extra trees) on ECG data from over 10,000 patients.
Read More...Identifying 5-hydroxymethylcytosine as a potential cancer biomarker using FFPE DNA samples
This study used an improved CMS-seq method to profile 5hmC in ormalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples from HNC tumors and adjacent normal tissues, identifying three genes (PRKD2, HADHA, and AIPL1) with promising potential as biomarkers for Head and neck cancer (HNC) diagnosis.
