Towards Personalized Modeling of the Female Hormonal Cycle: Experiments with Mechanistic Models and Gaussian Processes [PDF]
In this paper, we introduce a novel task for machine learning in healthcare, namely personalized modeling of the female hormonal cycle. The motivation for this work is to model the hormonal cycle and predict its phases in time, both for healthy individuals and for those with disorders of the reproductive system. Because there are individual differences

Abstract Objective Pituitary apoplexy (PA) is a rare condition caused by hemorrhage or infarction of the pituitary gland with associated risk of cranial neuropathies, endocrinopathies, and even death. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) has been shown to have some association with pituitary apoplexy, however, large‐scale studies have not been performed.

Hypoglycemia As Initial Presentation In Patient With Isolated Acth Deficiency
: Objective: Isolated adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) deficiency is characterized by loss of adrenocorticotropic hormone, resulting in adrenal insufficiency, which can lead to life threatening severe hypoglycemia.

Generalized-Ensemble Simulations of the Human Parathyroid Hormone Fragment PTH(1-34) [PDF]
A generalized-ensemble technique, multicanonical sampling, is used to study the folding of a 34-residue human parathyroid hormone fragment. An all-atom model of the peptide is employed and the protein-solvent interactions are approximated by an implicit solvent. Our results demonstrate that generalized-ensemble simulations are well suited to sample low-

Kisspeptin as a test of hypothalamic dysfunction in pubertal and reproductive disorders
Abstract The hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal axis is regulated by the gonadotropin‐releasing hormone pulse generator in the hypothalamus. This is comprised of neurons that secrete kisspeptin in a pulsatile manner to stimulate the release of GnRH, and, in turn, downstream gonadotropins from the pituitary gland, and subsequently sex steroids and ...

Effects of catecholamines on the lipolysis of two kinds of fat cells from adult rabbit
The administration of various catecholamines and adrenocorticotropic hormone to adult rabbit elevated plasma glycerol concentration. These catecholamines also induced the in vitro lipolysis of isolated interscapular fat cells but could not bring about ...

Systems of Delay Differential Equations: Analysis of a model with feedback [PDF]
Self-regulatory models are common in nature, as described e.g. in (\cite{mur}), (\cite{ha}) and (\cite{Gb}).\\ Let us consider a system made up of a number of glands as a motivation. Each gland secretes a hormone that allows secretion in the {next} gland, which successively generates another hormone to stimulate the next one and so on.
