Detection of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in oral fluid, blood and urine following oral consumption of low-content THC hemp oil.

Forensic science international
Hemp-derivative (Cannabis sativa L.) food products containing trace levels of Δ-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) are proposed for consumption in Australia and New Zealand; however, it is unclear whether use of these products will negatively affect existi...

DNA methylation-based forensic age prediction using artificial neural networks and next generation sequencing.

Forensic science international. Genetics
The ability to estimate the age of the donor from recovered biological material at a crime scene can be of substantial value in forensic investigations. Aging can be complex and is associated with various molecular modifications in cells that accumul...

Selenium supplementation has beneficial and detrimental effects on immunity to influenza vaccine in older adults.

Clinical nutrition (Edinburgh, Scotland)
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Mortality resulting from influenza (flu) virus infections occurs primarily in the elderly through declining immunity. Studies in mice have suggested beneficial effects of selenium (Se) supplementation on immunity to flu but similar...

Estimating the dim light melatonin onset of adolescents within a 6-h sampling window: the impact of sampling rate and threshold method.

Sleep medicine
OBJECTIVE/BACKGROUND: Circadian rhythm sleep-wake disorders (CRSWDs) often manifest during the adolescent years. Measurement of circadian phase such as the dim light melatonin onset (DLMO) improves diagnosis and treatment of these disorders, but fina...

Classifying Stress From Heart Rate Variability Using Salivary Biomarkers as Reference.

IEEE transactions on neural networks and learning systems
An accurate and noninvasive stress assessment from human physiology is a strenuous task. In this paper, a pattern recognition system to learn complex correlates between heart rate variability (HRV) features and salivary stress biomarkers is proposed....

Unexploited opportunities in oral disease biosensors and digital health integration.

Clinica chimica acta; international journal of clinical chemistry
Oral pathologies such as oral cancer, oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs), oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), represent significant global health challenges owing to their prevalence, complex management, and impact on patient quality of li...

Evaluating the added value of salivary hormones in the context of menstrual cycle staging: A machine learning approach and app-implementation.

Psychoneuroendocrinology
OBJECTIVE: Salivary hormone assessment is commonly used in menstrual cycle studies, but its validity for accurate menstrual cycle staging has been questioned. In the present study, we explore possibilities and limitations of salivary hormone assessme...

Predictive Analysis of Dental Caries Risk via Rapid Urease Activity Evaluation in Saliva Using a ZIF-8 Nanoporous Membrane.

ACS sensors
Despite a decrease in the incidence of dental caries over the past four decades, it remains a widespread public health concern. The multifactorial etiology of dental caries complicates effective prevention and early intervention efforts, underscoring...
