BACKGROUND: Differentiating and counting various types of white blood cells (WBC) in bone marrow smears allows the detection of infection, anemia, and leukemia or analysis of a process of treatment. However, manually locating, identifying, and counti...
BACKGROUND: Viral infections are prevalent in human cancers and they have great diagnostic and theranostic values in clinical practice. Recently, their potential of shaping the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) has been related to the immunotherap...
This article addresses a new method for the classification of white blood cells (WBCs) using image processing techniques and machine learning methods. The proposed method consists of three steps: detecting the nucleus and cytoplasm, extracting featur...
Fast and reliable detection of patients with severe and heterogeneous illnesses is a major goal of precision medicine. Patients with leukaemia can be identified using machine learning on the basis of their blood transcriptomes. However, there is an i...
Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) excel as powerful tools for biomedical image classification. It is commonly assumed that training CNNs requires large amounts of annotated data. This is a bottleneck in many medical applications where annotation r...
We evaluated the utility of leucocyte epigenomic-biomarkers for Alzheimer's Disease (AD) detection and elucidates its molecular pathogeneses. Genome-wide DNA methylation analysis was performed using the Infinium MethylationEPIC BeadChip array in 24 l...
ATAC-seq is a widely-applied assay used to measure genome-wide chromatin accessibility; however, its ability to detect active regulatory regions can depend on the depth of sequencing coverage and the signal-to-noise ratio. Here we introduce AtacWorks...
A complicated clinical course for critically ill patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) usually includes multiorgan dysfunction and subsequent death. Owing to the heterogeneity, complexity, and unpredictability of the disease progression,...
Peripheral Blood Smear (PBS) analysis is a vital routine test carried out by medical specialists to assess some health aspects of individuals. The automation of blood analysis has attracted the attention of researchers in recent years, as it will not...
