Estimating the refractive index of oxygenated and deoxygenated hemoglobin using genetic algorithm - support vector regression model.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The refractive index of hemoglobin plays important role in hematology due to its strong correlation with the pathophysiology of different diseases. Measurement of the real part of the refractive index remains a challenge du...

Harnessing the evolutionary information on oxygen binding proteins through Support Vector Machines based modules.

BMC research notes
OBJECTIVES: The arrival of free oxygen on the globe, aerobic life is becoming possible. However, it has become very clear that the oxygen binding proteins are widespread in the biosphere and are found in all groups of organisms, including prokaryotes...

Automated Detection of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Events from a Single-Lead Electrocardiogram Using a Convolutional Neural Network.

Journal of medical systems
In this study, we propose a method for the automated detection of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) from a single-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) using a convolutional neural network (CNN). A CNN model was designed with six optimized convolution layers incl...

Quality assessment and artificial neural networks modeling for characterization of chemical and physical parameters of potable water.

Food and chemical toxicology : an international journal published for the British Industrial Biological Research Association
Today, due to the increase in the population, the growth of industry and the variety of chemical compounds, the quality of drinking water has decreased. Five important river water quality properties such as: dissolved oxygen (DO), total dissolved sol...

Antiproliferative and anti-apoptotic effect of astaxanthin in an oxygen-induced retinopathy mouse model.

Canadian journal of ophthalmology. Journal canadien d'ophtalmologie
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the impact of intravitreal (IV) and intraperitoneal (IP) astaxanthin (AST) injections on neovascular development (ND), retinal morphology, and apoptotic activity in a C57BL/6J mouse model with hyperoxia-induced retinopathy (HIR...

Age-related changes in the ease of dynamical transitions in human brain activity.

Human brain mapping
Executive functions, a set of cognitive processes that enable flexible behavioral control, are known to decay with aging. Because such complex mental functions are considered to rely on the dynamic coordination of functionally different neural system...

A machine learning approach for automated assessment of retinal vasculature in the oxygen induced retinopathy model.

Scientific reports
Preclinical studies of vascular retinal diseases rely on the assessment of developmental dystrophies in the oxygen induced retinopathy rodent model. The quantification of vessel tufts and avascular regions is typically computed manually from flat mou...

Early prediction of cognitive deficits in very preterm infants using functional connectome data in an artificial neural network framework.

NeuroImage. Clinical
Investigation of the brain's functional connectome can improve our understanding of how an individual brain's organizational changes influence cognitive function and could result in improved individual risk stratification. Brain connectome studies in...

Specialized oxygenated heterocyclics from Villorita cyprinoides with cyclooxygenase-2 and 5-lipoxygenase inhibitory properties.

Food research international (Ottawa, Ont.)
Villorita cyprinoides is traditional seafood in the coastal regions of Arabian Sea. Bioactivity-guided purification of ethyl acetate:methanol extract of V. cyprinoides resulted in the identification of two O-spirocyclic ether derivatives (1-2) along ...

Evaluation of a peroxygen-based disinfectant for inactivation of porcine epidemic diarrhea virus at low temperatures on metal surfaces.

Veterinary microbiology
Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) spread rapidly across the United States in part due to contaminated livestock trailers. The objective of this study was to test a peroxygen-based disinfectant for the ability to inactivate PEDV on aluminum surfa...
