This paper demonstrates the use of a smartphone-based sensor for fluorescence polarization (FP) analysis of biomolecules. The FP detection can rapidly sense ligand-analyte bindings by measuring molecule mobility, and thus, FP-based assays have been w...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: The neuropeptide catestatin (CST) is an endogenous nicotinic cholinergic antagonist that acts as pleiotropic cardiac protective hormone. This study investigated the association between CST and coronary artery disease (CAD) and th...
Clinicians would benefit from access to predictive models for diagnosis, such as classification of tumors as malignant or benign, without compromising patients' privacy. In addition, the medical institutions and companies who own these medical inform...
PURPOSE: The goal of this study was to generate a large treatment plan database for head and neck (H&N) cancer patients that can be considered as the gold standard to train and validate models for knowledge-based (KB) treatment planning and QA. With ...
Endocrine-disrupting chemicals are a group of emerging contaminants that alters the function of the endocrine system, causing possible adverse health effects. In this study, a dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction method coupled with liquid chroma...
