We propose a novel framework for classification of mitotic v/s non-mitotic cells in a Computer Aided Diagnosis (CAD) system for Anti-Nuclear Antibodies (ANA) detection. In the proposed work, due to unique characteristics (the rare occurrence) of the ...
BACKGROUND: Renal flare of lupus nephritis (LN) is strongly associated with poor kidney outcomes, and predicting renal flare and stratifying its risk are important for clinical decision-making and individualized management to reduce LN flare.
To develop a machine learning (ML) model that predicts disease groups or autoantibodies in patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs) using muscle MRI radiomics features. Twenty-two patients with dermatomyositis (DM), 14 with amyopathic ...

Antinuclear antibodies (ANAs) testing is the main serological diagnosis screening test for autoimmune diseases. ANAs testing is conducted principally by the indirect immunofluorescence (IIF) on human epithelial cell-substrate (HEp-2) protocol. Howeve...
BACKGROUND: Kidney involvement frequently occurs in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and its clinical manifestations are complicated. We profiled kidney involvement in SLE patients using deep learning based on data from the National Database of De...
The Anti-Nuclear Antibodies (ANA) test using Human Epithelial type 2 (HEp-2) cells in the Indirect Immuno-Fluorescence (IIF) assay protocol is considered the gold standard for detecting Connective Tissue Diseases. Computer-assisted systems for HEp-2 ...
Antinuclear Antibody (ANA) testing is pivotal to help diagnose patients with a suspected autoimmune disease. The Indirect Immunofluorescence (IIF) microscopy performed with human epithelial type 2 (HEp-2) cells as the substrate is the reference metho...
BACKGROUND: Primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) is a chronic systemic autoimmune disease characterized by lymphocyte infiltration of the exocrine glands. Interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) are often upregulated in patients with pSS, and anti-SSA/Ro 60 a...
Accurate and accessible classification of anti-nuclear antibodies (ANA) through indirect immunofluorescence (IIF) imaging is crucial for diagnosing autoimmune diseases. However, many laboratories, particularly those with limited resources, lack acces...
OBJECTIVE: SLE is a chronic autoimmune disease with immune complex deposition in various organs, causing inflammation. The Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index 2000 assesses disease severity but is subjective. This study aimed to const...
