Protein submitochondrial localization from integrated sequence representation and SVM-based backward feature extraction.

Molecular bioSystems
Mitochondrion, a tiny energy factory, plays an important role in various biological processes of most eukaryotic cells. Mitochondrial defection is associated with a series of human diseases. Knowledge of the submitochondrial locations of proteins can...

Support Vector Feature Selection for Early Detection of Anastomosis Leakage From Bag-of-Words in Electronic Health Records.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
The free text in electronic health records (EHRs) conveys a huge amount of clinical information about health state and patient history. Despite a rapidly growing literature on the use of machine learning techniques for extracting this information, li...

The effect of a supplementary ('Gist-based') information leaflet on colorectal cancer knowledge and screening intention: a randomized controlled trial.

Journal of behavioral medicine
Guided by Fuzzy Trace Theory, this study examined the impact of a 'Gist-based' leaflet on colorectal cancer screening knowledge and intentions; and tested the interaction with participants' numerical ability. Adults aged 45-59 years from four UK gene...

A comparison of machine learning methods for classification using simulation with multiple real data examples from mental health studies.

Statistical methods in medical research
BACKGROUND: Recent literature on the comparison of machine learning methods has raised questions about the neutrality, unbiasedness and utility of many comparative studies. Reporting of results on favourable datasets and sampling error in the estimat...

T-cell Subset Features and Distributions Evolve across the Colorectal Precancer-Cancer Spectrum.

Cancer immunology research
The immune microenvironment is a crucial component of colorectal carcinoma that has been well characterized, but much less is known about the immune microenvironment of colorectal carcinoma precursors. We hypothesized that T-cell infiltrates might di...

Mathematical Modeling Quantifies "Just-Right" APC Inactivation for Colorectal Cancer Initiation.

Cancer research
UNLABELLED: Dysregulation of the tumor suppressor gene adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) is a canonical step in colorectal cancer development by promoting activation of the WNT/β-catenin pathway. Curiously, most colorectal tumors carry biallelic mutat...

Deep learning predicts microsatellite instability status in colorectal carcinoma in an ethnically heterogeneous population in South Africa.

Journal of clinical pathology
BACKGROUND: Deep learning (DL) models are effective pre-screening tools for detecting mismatch repair deficiency (dMMR) in colorectal carcinoma (CRC). These models have been trained and validated on large cohorts from the Northern Hemisphere, without...

Non-invasive multi-phase CT artificial intelligence for predicting pre-treatment enlarged lymph node status in colorectal cancer: a prospective validation study.

European radiology
OBJECTIVES: Benign lymph node enlargement can mislead surgeons into overstaging colorectal cancer (CRC), causing unnecessarily extended lymphadenectomy. This study aimed to develop and validate a machine learning (ML) classifier utilizing multi-phase...

Modeling Early-Onset Cancer Kinetics Reveals Changes in Underlying Risk and the Impact of Population Screening.

Cancer research
UNLABELLED: Recent studies have reported increases in early-onset cancer cases (diagnosed less than 50 years of age) and raised questions about whether the increase is related to earlier diagnosis from nonspecific medical tests as reflected by decrea...
