Latest AI and machine learning research in infectious disease for healthcare professionals.
As predicted by fuzzy-trace theory, people with a range of training—from untrained adolescents to expert physicians—are susceptible to biases and errors in judgment and perception of HIV-AIDS risk. To explain why this occurs, we introduce fuzzy-trace theory as a theoretical perspective that describes these errors to be a function of knowledge deficits, gist-based representation of risk categories,...
Among the chemometric tools used in rational drug design, we find artificial neural network methods (ANNs), a statistical learning algorithm similar to the human brain, to be quite powerful. Some ANN applications use biological and molecular data of the training series that are inserted to ensure the machine learning, and to generate robust and predictive models. In drug discovery, researchers use...
The issue of ontology evolution and change management is inadequately addressed by available tools and algorithms, mostly due to the lack of suitable ...
This paper describes a meta-learner inference system development framework which is applied and tested in the implementation of bioinformatic inferenc...
Early classification of time series has been receiving a lot of attention recently. In this paper we present a model, which we call the Early Classifi...
The designing of H∞ fuzzy controller for HIV/AIDS infected dynamic system has been considered in this paper. With TS fuzzy model and LMIs approach, th...
Counting bacterial colonies on microbiological culture plates is a time-consuming, error-prone, nevertheless fundamental task in microbiology. Compute...
UNLABELLED: The similar routes of transmission for HIV and HBV place patients with either infection at greater risk for HIV/HBV co-infection.
Epidemic outbreaks of avian influenza (AI) virus H5N1 have been frequently reported in Egypt during the last nine years. Here we investigate the invol...
UNLABELLED: To preserve oral health and to maintain the prosthetic devices, it is important not only to improve the properties of commonly known hygie...
Reactivation of the hepatitis B virus (HBV) has been reported in patients receiving immunosuppressive therapy or chemotherapy. We report a case of HBV...
The current hepatitis A vaccine (HAV), inactivated, non-adsorbed, European Pharmacopoeia (Ph. Eur.) Biological Reference Preparation (BRP) is used for...
BACKGROUND: Limited data exist comparing viral quasispecies between cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and plasma compartments during primary HIV infection. De...
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate and compare the antimicrobial efficacy of 6% Morinda citrifolia, Azadirachta indica, and 3% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) as root...
Survival of bacterial populations treated with lethal doses of antibiotics is ensured by the presence of very small numbers of persister cells. Unlike...
Effect of human inherent immunity factors of, a gene-encoded antibacterial peptide indolicidin (Ind) and a cytokine interleukin 1 (IL1) on formation o...
BACKGROUND: Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii) infection is one of the most common parasitic infections among humans and other warm-blooded animals worldwi...
Therapy of chronic hepatitis C presently achieves 60% of sustained virological response, with clear on improvement of liver histology. Failure to erad...
