Research on the Application Value of Blood Plasma Autofluorescence Spectroscopy Model Constructed by Machine Learning Algorithms in Identifying the Types of Post-operative Kidney Transplantation Injury.

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to assess the value of blood plasma autofluorescence spectroscopy in classifying renal injury after renal transplantation. METHODS: The researchers included 86 patients after kidney transplantation and established five classifications: stable group, tubular injury group, IgA nephropathy group, antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR) group, and mixed group. They also establi...

Noninvasive Staging of Hepatic Fibrosis in Patients with Autoimmune Liver Disease Using Deep Learning.

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Accurate staging of hepatic fibrosis is essential for guiding immunosuppressive and antifibrotic therapies. However, percutaneous liver biopsy, the current reference standard, remains invasive and is subject to sampling errors and interobserver variability. To address these limitations, we developed and validated a noninvasive deep learning model using routine two-dimensi...

Exploring the toxicological mechanisms of Benzo[a]anthracene (BaA) exposure in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) via network toxicology, machine learning, and multi-dimensional bioinformatics analysis.

BACKGROUND: Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is a major lung cancer subtype influenced by environmental factors. Benzo[a]anthracene (BaA), a common Group 2B...

Development and validation of a prognosis model for low-grade gliomas based on metabolic gene risk scoring and immune microenvironment interaction.
