OBJECTIVE: To assess the diagnostic value of combining plasma steroid profiling with machine learning (ML) in differentiating between mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS) and nonfunctioning adenoma (NFA) in patients with adrenal incidentalomas.
Patients with hematological malignancy experience physical and psychological pain, such as a sense of isolation and confinement due to intensive chemotherapy in a protective isolation unit (PIU). We examined whether the intervention of a robotic pupp...
BACKGROUND: Cortisol has immunomodulatory effects that increase the risk and evolution of several diseases. Cancer is characterized by a proinflammatory state in which cells exert impaired function and proliferation. The relation between cortisol sec...
Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is one of the most common chronic diseases in children and adolescents, and is associated with stress and other psychological alterations. This study aims to assess psychological and sleep disorders and health-related...
Social soft robotics may provide a new solution for alleviating human pain and fear. Here, we introduce a hand-held soft robot that can be clenched by the wearer. The robot comprises small airbags that can be inflated to provide the wearer with a fee...
Ternary cyclodextrin (CD) complexes (drug/CD/polymer) can effectively improve the solubility of water-insoluble drugs with large size than binary CD formulations. However, ternary formulations are screened by a trial-and-error approach, which is labo...
The interaction between psychological stress and immune system may be associated with the cognitive impairment of schizophrenia. To employ machine learning algorithms to examine patterns of stress-immune networks with cognitive impairment in chronic ...
