Comprehensible knowledge model creation for cancer treatment decision making.

Computers in biology and medicine
BACKGROUND: A wealth of clinical data exists in clinical documents in the form of electronic health records (EHRs). This data can be used for developing knowledge-based recommendation systems that can assist clinicians in clinical decision making and...

CyNetSVM: A Cytoscape App for Cancer Biomarker Identification Using Network Constrained Support Vector Machines.

PloS one
One of the important tasks in cancer research is to identify biomarkers and build classification models for clinical outcome prediction. In this paper, we develop a CyNetSVM software package, implemented in Java and integrated with Cytoscape as an ap...

Cancer subtype prediction from a pathway-level perspective by using a support vector machine based on integrated gene expression and protein network.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Distinguishing cancer subtypes is critical for selecting the appropriate treatment strategy. Bioinformatics approaches have gradually taken the place of clinical observations and pathological experiments. However, these appr...

Biologically Relevant Heterogeneity: Metrics and Practical Insights.

SLAS discovery : advancing life sciences R & D
Heterogeneity is a fundamental property of biological systems at all scales that must be addressed in a wide range of biomedical applications, including basic biomedical research, drug discovery, diagnostics, and the implementation of precision medic...

LC-MS/MS determination of d-mannose in human serum as a potential cancer biomarker.

Journal of pharmaceutical and biomedical analysis
Several metabolites in human serum have been identified as potential cancer biomarkers for early detection. This study focuses on the LC-MS/MS method development and validation of d-mannose in human serum. Surrogate blank serum, coupled with stable i...

DeepGene: an advanced cancer type classifier based on deep learning and somatic point mutations.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: With the developments of DNA sequencing technology, large amounts of sequencing data have become available in recent years and provide unprecedented opportunities for advanced association studies between somatic point mutations and cancer...

Correlation of Serum Cystatin C with Glomerular Filtration Rate in Patients Receiving Platinum-Based Chemotherapy.

Analytical cellular pathology (Amsterdam)
. Serum cystatin C seems to be an accurate marker of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) compared to serum creatinine. The aim of this work was to explore the possibility of using serum cystatin C instead of serum creatinine to early predict renal failu...

Automated Detection of Cancer Associated Genes Using a Combined Fuzzy-Rough-Set-Based F-Information and Water Swirl Algorithm of Human Gene Expression Data.

PloS one
This study describes a novel approach to reducing the challenges of highly nonlinear multiclass gene expression values for cancer diagnosis. To build a fruitful system for cancer diagnosis, in this study, we introduced two levels of gene selection su...

Antimicrobial activity of ceftazidime-avibactam and comparator agents when tested against bacterial isolates causing infection in cancer patients (2013-2014).

Diagnostic microbiology and infectious disease
We evaluated the antimicrobial susceptibility of 623 Gram-negative organisms causing infection in patients with cancer in 52 United States hospitals (2013-2014) as part of the International Network for Optimal Resistance Monitoring (INFORM) program. ...

Cancer Care Access and Outcomes for American Indian Populations in the United States: Challenges and Models for Progress.

Seminars in radiation oncology
Low socioeconomic and health care access realities of being American Indian/Alaskan Native (AI/AN) in the United States combined with decades of data documenting poor cancer outcomes for this population provide a population nested within the United S...
