Systematic analysis of binding of transcription factors to noncoding variants.

Nature
Many sequence variants have been linked to complex human traits and diseases, but deciphering their biological functions remains challenging, as most of them reside in noncoding DNA. Here we have systematically assessed the binding of 270 human trans...

Transfer learning with chest X-rays for ER patient classification.

Scientific reports
One of the challenges with urgent evaluation of patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in the emergency room (ER) is distinguishing between cardiac vs infectious etiologies for their pulmonary findings. We conducted a retrospective ...

Host variables confound gut microbiota studies of human disease.

Nature
Low concordance between studies that examine the role of microbiota in human diseases is a pervasive challenge that limits the capacity to identify causal relationships between host-associated microorganisms and pathology. The risk of obtaining false...

Use of artificial intelligence to recover mandibular morphology after disease.

Scientific reports
Mandibular tumors and radical oral cancer surgery often cause bone dysmorphia and defects. Most patients present with noticeable mandibular deformations, and doctors often have difficulty determining their exact mandibular morphology. In this study, ...

Evaluating the informativeness of deep learning annotations for human complex diseases.

Nature communications
Deep learning models have shown great promise in predicting regulatory effects from DNA sequence, but their informativeness for human complex diseases is not fully understood. Here, we evaluate genome-wide SNP annotations from two previous deep learn...

MosaicBase: A Knowledgebase of Postzygotic Mosaic Variants in Noncancer Disease-related and Healthy Human Individuals.

Genomics, proteomics & bioinformatics
Mosaic variants resulting from postzygotic mutations are prevalent in the human genome and play important roles in human diseases. However, except for cancer-related variants, there is no collection of postzygotic mosaic variants in noncancer disease...

iPiDA-sHN: Identification of Piwi-interacting RNA-disease associations by selecting high quality negative samples.

Computational biology and chemistry
As a large group of small non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) have been detected to be associated with various diseases. Identifying disease associated piRNAs can provide promising candidate molecular targets to promote the drug ...

Medical Information Extraction in the Age of Deep Learning.

Yearbook of medical informatics
OBJECTIVES: We survey recent developments in medical Information Extraction (IE) as reported in the literature from the past three years. Our focus is on the fundamental methodological paradigm shift from standard Machine Learning (ML) techniques to ...

Structuring, reuse and analysis of electronic dental data using the Oral Health and Disease Ontology.

Journal of biomedical semantics
BACKGROUND: A key challenge for improving the quality of health care is to be able to use a common framework to work with patient information acquired in any of the health and life science disciplines. Patient information collected during dental care...

Identifying disease trajectories with predicate information from a knowledge graph.

Journal of biomedical semantics
BACKGROUND: Knowledge graphs can represent the contents of biomedical literature and databases as subject-predicate-object triples, thereby enabling comprehensive analyses that identify e.g. relationships between diseases. Some diseases are often dia...
