Breath profiles in paediatric allergic asthma by proton transfer reaction mass spectrometry.

BMJ open respiratory research
INTRODUCTION: Enhancing paediatric asthma diagnosis is crucial. Molecular analysis of exhaled breath is a rapidly evolving field aimed at harnessing established and innovative technologies for clinical applications. This study evaluates the feasibili...

GANDALF: Generative ANsatz for DNA damage evALuation and Forecast. A neural network-based regression for estimating early DNA damage across micro-nano scales.

Physica medica : PM : an international journal devoted to the applications of physics to medicine and biology : official journal of the Italian Association of Biomedical Physics (AIFB)
PURPOSE: This study aims to develop a comprehensive simulation framework to connect radiation effects from the microscopic to the nanoscopic scale.

Molecular mechanism underlying effect of D93 and D289 protonation states on inhibitor-BACE1 binding: exploration from multiple independent Gaussian accelerated molecular dynamics and deep learning.

SAR and QSAR in environmental research
BACE1 has been regarded as an essential drug design target for treating Alzheimer's disease (AD). Multiple independent Gaussian accelerated molecular dynamics simulations (GaMD), deep learning (DL), and molecular mechanics general Born surface area (...

Enhancing amide proton transfer imaging in ischemic stroke using a machine learning approach with partially synthetic data.

NMR in biomedicine
Amide proton transfer (APT) imaging, a technique sensitive to tissue pH, holds promise in the diagnosis of ischemic stroke. Achieving accurate and rapid APT imaging is crucial for this application. However, conventional APT quantification methods eit...

Differential plasma cytokine variation following X-ray or proton brain irradiation using machine-learning approaches.

Cancer radiotherapie : journal de la Societe francaise de radiotherapie oncologique
PURPOSE: X-ray and proton irradiation have been reported to induce distinct modifications in cytokine expression in vitro and in vivo, suggesting a dissimilar inflammatory response between X-rays and protons. We aimed to investigate the differences i...

Electronic and Nuclear Quantum Effects on Proton Transfer Reactions of Guanine-Thymine (G-T) Mispairs Using Combined Quantum Mechanical/Molecular Mechanical and Machine Learning Potentials.

Molecules (Basel, Switzerland)
Rare tautomeric forms of nucleobases can lead to Watson-Crick-like (WC-like) mispairs in DNA, but the process of proton transfer is fast and difficult to detect experimentally. NMR studies show evidence for the existence of short-time WC-like guanine...

An artificial neural network based approach for predicting the proton beam spot dosimetric characteristics of a pencil beam scanning technique.

Biomedical physics & engineering express
Utilising Machine Learning (ML) models to predict dosimetric parameters in pencil beam scanning proton therapy presents a promising and practical approach. The study developed Artificial Neural Network (ANN) models to predict proton beam spot size an...

Hybrid-supervised deep learning for domain transfer 3D protoacoustic image reconstruction.

Physics in medicine and biology
. Protoacoustic imaging showed great promise in providing real-time 3D dose verification of proton therapy. However, the limited acquisition angle in protoacoustic imaging induces severe artifacts, which impairs its accuracy for dose verification. In...

A deep learning approach to remove contrast from contrast-enhanced CT for proton dose calculation.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
PURPOSE: Non-Contrast Enhanced CT (NCECT) is normally required for proton dose calculation while Contrast Enhanced CT (CECT) is often scanned for tumor and organ delineation. Possible tissue motion between these two CTs raises dosimetry uncertainties...

A denoising method based on deep learning for proton radiograph using energy resolved dose function.

Physics in medicine and biology
Proton radiograph has been broadly applied in proton radiotherapy which is affected by scattered protons which result in the lower spatial resolution of proton radiographs than that of x-ray images. Traditional image denoising method may lead to the ...
