A guide to machine learning for bacterial host attribution using genome sequence data.

Microbial genomics
With the ever-expanding number of available sequences from bacterial genomes, and the expectation that this data type will be the primary one generated from both diagnostic and research laboratories for the foreseeable future, then there is both an o...

[A New Micro-traumatic Laparoscopic Surgery Robot System].

Zhongguo yi liao qi xie za zhi = Chinese journal of medical instrumentation
At present, there still exist some limitations in the laparoscopic surgery robot represented by da Vinci surgical robot, such as the lack of force feedback function. Doctor can not feel the force feedback while operating. In this paper, a new minimal...

Burn wound classification model using spatial frequency-domain imaging and machine learning.

Journal of biomedical optics
Accurate assessment of burn severity is critical for wound care and the course of treatment. Delays in classification translate to delays in burn management, increasing the risk of scarring and infection. To this end, numerous imaging techniques have...

Inferring material properties in robotic bone drilling processes.

Acta of bioengineering and biomechanics
PURPOSE: Recent innovations in robotics have enabled the development of automatic bone drilling tools which allows surgeons to improve the precision of their surgical operations. However, these tools still lack valuable tactile information about the ...

In Vitro Investigation of Potential Anti-Diabetic Activity of the Corm Extract of Hypoxis Argentea Harv. Ex Baker.

Acta pharmaceutica (Zagreb, Croatia)
The corms of Hypoxis argentea are widely used as a traditional remedy for diabetes mellitus in South Africa. In this study, we investigated the effects of non-toxic concentrations (12.5-100 μg mL-1) of the aqueous extract of H. argentea (HAA) corms o...

Linear growth model analysis of factors affecting boar semen characteristics in Southern China.

Journal of animal science
This study investigated the factors affecting the semen traits of boars in Southern China. A total of 172,408 ejaculates of boars from 9 AI centers were collected from January 2013 to May 2016. A linear growth model was used to analyze the effects of...

Use of in vitro dry matter digestibility and gas production to predict apparent total tract digestibility of total dietary fiber for growing pigs.

Journal of animal science
In vitro DM disappearance (IVDMD) and gas production methods have been developed and used to measure in vivo nutrient digestibility of feed ingredients, but further validation is needed for ingredients containing high concentrations of insoluble fibe...

Estimating glucose requirements of an activated immune system in growing pigs.

Journal of animal science
Activated immune cells become obligate glucose utilizers, and a large i.v. lipopolysaccharide (LPS) dose causes insulin resistance and severe hypoglycemia. Therefore, study objectives were to quantify the amount of glucose needed to maintain euglycem...

Design and Validation of a Biosensor Implantation Capsule Robot.

Journal of biomechanical engineering
We have proposed a long-term, noninvasive, nonrestrictive method of delivering and implanting a biosensor within the body via a swallowable implantation capsule robot (ICR). The design and preliminary validation of the ICR's primary subsystem-the sen...
