Diagnosis of Parkinson's Disease via the Metabolic Fingerprint in Saliva by Deep Learning.

Small methods
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second cause of the neurodegenerative disorder, affecting over 6 million people worldwide. The World Health Organization estimated that population aging will cause global PD prevalence to double in the coming 30 years....

Autonomous aspirating robot for removing saliva blood mixed liquid in oral surgery.

Computer methods in biomechanics and biomedical engineering
Saliva blood mixed liquid (SBML) appears in oral surgery, such as scaling and root planning, and it affects surgical vision and causes discomfort to the patient. However, removing SBML, i.e. frequent aspiration of the mixed liquid, is a routine task ...

Efficient SARS-CoV-2 Quantitative Reverse Transcriptase PCR Saliva Diagnostic Strategy utilizing Open-Source Pipetting Robots.

Journal of visualized experiments : JoVE
The emergence of the recent SARS-CoV-2 global health crisis introduced key challenges for epidemiological research and clinical testing. Characterized by a high rate of transmission and low mortality, the COVID-19 pandemic necessitated accurate and e...

Combining machine learning and nanopore construction creates an artificial intelligence nanopore for coronavirus detection.

Nature communications
High-throughput, high-accuracy detection of emerging viruses allows for the control of disease outbreaks. Currently, reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) is currently the most-widely used technology to diagnose the presence of SAR...

Development of a Chewing Robot With Built-in Humanoid Jaws to Simulate Mastication to Quantify Robotic Agents Release From Chewing Gums Compared to Human Participants.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
Medicated chewing gum has been recognised as a new advanced drug delivery method, with a promising future. Its potential has not yet been fully exploited because currently there is no gold standard for testing the release of agents from chewing gum i...

Neuromorphic on-chip recognition of saliva samples of COPD and healthy controls using memristive devices.

Scientific reports
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a life-threatening lung disease, affecting millions of people worldwide. Implementation of Machine Learning (ML) techniques is crucial for the effective management of COPD in home-care environments. How...

Touching the social robot PARO reduces pain perception and salivary oxytocin levels.

Scientific reports
Human-human social touch improves mood and alleviates pain. No studies have so far tested the effect of human-robot emotional touch on experimentally induced pain ratings, on mood and on oxytocin levels in healthy young adults. Here, we assessed the ...

Road Transport of Late-Pregnant Mares Advances the Onset of Foaling.

Journal of equine veterinary science
Cortisol is involved in the initiation of parturition and we hypothesized that increased maternal cortisol release advances the onset of foaling. Transport is a stressor for horses and induces an increase in cortisol release. To determine stress effe...

Zoster patients on earth and astronauts in space share similar immunologic profiles.

Life sciences in space research
BACKGROUND: On long-duration spaceflight, most astronauts experience persistent immune dysregulation and the reactivation of latent herpesviruses, including varicella zoster virus (VZV). To understand the clinical risk of these perturbations to astro...
