OBJECTIVE: The objective of this work is to use the capability of spiking neural networks to capture the spatio-temporal information encoded in time-series signals and decode them without the use of hand-crafted features and vector-based learning and...

BACKGROUND: Therapeutic efficacy and toxicity of thiopurine drugs (used as anticancer and immunosuppressant agents) are affected by thiopurine S-methyltransferase (TPMT) enzyme activity. genotype and/or phenotype is used to predict the risk for adve...
BACKGROUND: Two major concerns with respect to task-based motor functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) are inadequate participants' performance as well as intra- and inter-subject variability in execution of the motor action.
Swallowing is a complex physiological function that can be studied through medical imagery techniques such as videofluoroscopy (VFS), dynamic magnetic resonance imagery (MRI) and fiberoptic endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (FEES). VFS is the gold ...
BACKGROUND: Plantar pressure image (PPI) recorded in high spatial and temporal resolution is very useful in clinical gait analysis. For functional analysis of PPI, image registration is often performed to maximally correlate source image with a templ...
BACKGROUND: For Glioblastoma (GBM), various prognostic nomograms have been proposed. This study aims to evaluate machine learning models to predict patients' overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) on the basis of clinical, patholog...

Arterial oxygen saturation ([Formula: see text]) is an indicator of how much oxygen is carried by hemoglobin in the blood. Having enough oxygen is vital for the functioning of cells in the human body. Measurement of [Formula: see text] is typically e...
Patients with generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) often present with symptoms that must be differentiated from sepsis. Procalcitonin (PCT) and presepsin (P-SEP) are widely used as biomarkers for sepsis; therefore, we examined the serum PCT and P-SEP...
Over the last four decades, there has been a pursuit for a non-invasive solution for glucose measurement, but there is not yet any viable product released. Of the many sensor modalities tried, the combination of electrical and optical measurement is ...
BACKGROUND: Phenoconversion is a phenomenon whereby some genotypic extensive metabolizers transiently exhibit drug metabolizing enzyme activity at similar level as that of poor metabolizers. Renal failure is known to decrease CYP3A activity in humans...
