Explainable Deep Learning Algorithm for Distinguishing Incomplete Kawasaki Disease by Coronary Artery Lesions on Echocardiographic Imaging [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Background and Objective: Incomplete Kawasaki disease (KD) has often been misdiagnosed due to a lack of the clinical manifestations of classic KD. However, it is associated with a markedly higher prevalence of coronary artery lesions. Identifying coronary artery lesions by echocardiography is important for the timely diagnosis of and favorable outcomes

Heat shock proteins may be a missing link between febrile infection and cancer tumor rejection via autoantigen molecular mimicry [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Numerous epidemiological studies suggest febrile infections could confer long-term immunity to certain types of cancers, though the precise mechanisms for this phenomenon remain unclear. Systemic heat-shock responses to fever may be key to understanding the overlapping outcomes of immune responses to infection and cancer. To investigate this hypothesis,
