Impact of milk based micronutrient supplementation in school children in Quito-Ecuador.

Nutricion hospitalaria
BACKGROUND: The most common micronutrient deficiencies in Ecuadorian schoolchildren are vitamin A (VA), zinc, and iron. The objective of the present study was to test the efficacy of cow's milk as a vehicle for VA, zinc, and iron supplementation.

Alcoholism Detection by Data Augmentation and Convolutional Neural Network with Stochastic Pooling.

Journal of medical systems
Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is an important brain disease. It alters the brain structure. Recently, scholars tend to use computer vision based techniques to detect AUD. We collected 235 subjects, 114 alcoholic and 121 non-alcoholic. Among the 235 imag...

Anti-aging factor, serum alpha-Klotho, as a marker of acute physiological stress, and a predictor of ICU mortality, in patients with septic shock.

Journal of critical care
PURPOSE: Genetic deletions decreasing serum alpha-Klotho (alpha-KL) have been associated with rapid aging, multi-organ failure and increased mortality in experimental sepsis. We hypothesized that lower alpha-KL obtained at the onset of septic shock c...

A Diadochokinesis-based expert system considering articulatory features of plosive consonants for early detection of Parkinson's disease.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: A new expert system is proposed to discriminate healthy people from people with Parkinson's Disease (PD) in early stages by using Diadochokinesis tests.

Physiological based pharmacokinetic modeling to estimate in vivo Ki of ketoconazole on renal P-gp using human drug-drug interaction study result of fesoterodine and ketoconazole.

Drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics
This study was conducted to estimate in vivo inhibition constant (Ki) of ketoconazole on renal P-glycoprotein (P-gp) using human drug-drug interaction (DDI) study result of fesoterodine and ketoconazole. Fesoterodine is a prodrug which is extensively...

Predictions of ocular changes caused by diabetes in glaucoma patients.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: This paper builds different neural network models with simple topologies, having one or two hidden layers which were subsequently employed in the prediction of ocular changes progression in patients with diabetes associated ...

Modeling mesoscopic cortical dynamics using a mean-field model of conductance-based networks of adaptive exponential integrate-and-fire neurons.

Journal of computational neuroscience
Voltage-sensitive dye imaging (VSDi) has revealed fundamental properties of neocortical processing at macroscopic scales. Since for each pixel VSDi signals report the average membrane potential over hundreds of neurons, it seems natural to use a mean...

Predicting the sources of impaired wh-question comprehension in non-fluent aphasia: A cross-linguistic machine learning study on Turkish and German.

Cognitive neuropsychology
This study investigates the comprehension of wh-questions in individuals with aphasia (IWA) speaking Turkish, a non-wh-movement language, and German, a wh-movement language. We examined six German-speaking and 11 Turkish-speaking IWA using picture-po...
