Accuracy and acceptability of self-sampling HPV testing in cervical cancer screening: a population-based study in rural Yunnan, China.

Scientific reports
To evaluate the accuracy and acceptability of self-sampling samples for HPV testing for cervical cancer screening in rural Yunnan of China. In 2022, 3000 women aged 17-69 were recruited and provided self-sampling vaginal samples alongside provider-sa...

Plasma Epstein-Barr Virus DNA load for diagnostic and prognostic assessment in intestinal Epstein-Barr Virus infection.

Frontiers in cellular and infection microbiology
BACKGROUND: The prospective application of plasma Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) DNA load as a noninvasive measure of intestinal EBV infection remains unexplored. This study aims to identify ideal threshold levels for plasma EBV DNA loads in the diagnosis ...

Machine learning approaches identify immunologic signatures of total and intact HIV DNA during long-term antiretroviral therapy.

eLife
Understanding the interplay between the HIV reservoir and the host immune system may yield insights into HIV persistence during antiretroviral therapy (ART) and inform strategies for a cure. Here, we applied machine learning (ML) approaches to cross-...

Assessment and classification of COVID-19 DNA sequence using pairwise features concatenation from multi-transformer and deep features with machine learning models.

SLAS technology
The 2019 novel coronavirus (renamed SARS-CoV-2, and generally referred to as the COVID-19 virus) has spread to 184 countries with over 1.5 million confirmed cases. Such a major viral outbreak demands early elucidation of taxonomic classification and ...

DNA Virus Detection System Based on RPA-CRISPR/Cas12a-SPM and Deep Learning.

Journal of visualized experiments : JoVE
We report a fast, easy-to-implement, highly sensitive, sequence-specific, and point-of-care (POC) DNA virus detection system, which combines recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) and CRISPR/Cas12a system for trace detection of DNA viruses. Targe...

Clinical cure induced by pegylated interferon α-2b in the advantaged population of chronic hepatitis B virus infection: a retrospective cohort study.

Frontiers in cellular and infection microbiology
BACKGROUND: Among the advantaged population with clinical cure of chronic hepatitis B, chronic inactive hepatitis B virus carriers (IHCs) and nucleoside analog-experienced patients have similar serological manifestations. This study established non-i...

Serological and Molecular Characterization of Occult HBV Infection in Blood Donors from South Italy.

Viruses
Despite good vaccine coverage and careful blood donor selection policies, hepatitis B virus (HBV) is still the most frequent viral infection among blood donors (BDs) in Italy, mostly in the occult form (OBI). We studied the virological features of OB...

NGS read classification using AI.

PloS one
Clinical metagenomics is a powerful diagnostic tool, as it offers an open view into all DNA in a patient's sample. This allows the detection of pathogens that would slip through the cracks of classical specific assays. However, due to this unspecific...
