PURPOSE: This study aimed to initially test whether machine learning approaches could categorically predict two simple biological features, mouse age and mouse species, using the retinal segmentation metrics.
Parkinson's disease (PD), as the second most prevalent neurodegenerative disorder worldwide, impacts the quality of life for over 12 million patients. This study aims to enhance the accuracy of early diagnosis of PD through non-invasive methods, with...
OBJECTIVE: Malignant glioma progresses rapidly and shows poor prognosis, but clinically applicable blood plasma-based biochemical tumor markers remain lacking. This study aimed to develop a diagnostic system using probe electrospray ionization mass s...
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a prototypical neurodegenerative disorder, predominantly affecting individuals in the presenile and elderly populations, with an etiology that remains elusive. This investigation aimed to elucidate the alterations in anoik...
Pulmonary fibrosis is characterized by progressive lung scarring, leading to a decline in lung function and an increase in morbidity and mortality. This study leverages single-cell sequencing and machine learning to unravel the complex cellular and m...
Changes in the gut microbiota are associated with obesity and may influence weight loss. We are currently implementing a sustained multidisciplinary collaborative weight management (MCWM) approach to weight loss. We report significant improvements in...
