A data science approach to drug safety: Semantic and visual mining of adverse drug events from clinical trials of pain treatments [PDF]
Clinical trials are the basis of Evidence-Based Medicine. Trial results are reviewed by experts and consensus panels for producing meta-analyses and clinical practice guidelines. However, reviewing these results is a long and tedious task, hence the meta-analyses and guidelines are not updated each time a new trial is published.

Parametric study of lumbar belts in the case of low back pain: effect of patients' specific characteristics [PDF]
Objective: A numerical 3D model of the human trunk was developed to study the biomechanical effects of lumbar belts used to treat low back pain. Methods: This model was taken from trunk radiographies of a person and simplified so as to make a parametric study by varying morphological parameters of the patient, characteristic parameters of the lumbar ...

Clustering of Pain Dynamics in Sickle Cell Disease from Sparse, Uneven Samples [PDF]
Irregularly sampled time series data are common in a variety of fields. Many typical methods for drawing insight from data fail in this case. Here we attempt to generalize methods for clustering trajectories to irregularly and sparsely sampled data. We first construct synthetic data sets, then propose and assess four methods of data alignment to allow ...

Statistical Applications in Pain Management: A Review [PDF]
Chronic pain is a widespread and debilitating condition that affects millions of individuals worldwide. Recent research has unveiled a connection between chronic pain and epigenetic processes, shedding light on the complex interplay between genetics, environment, and pain perception.

Measuring Pain in Sickle Cell Disease using Clinical Text [PDF]
Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) is a hereditary disorder of red blood cells in humans. Complications such as pain, stroke, and organ failure occur in SCD as malformed, sickled red blood cells passing through small blood vessels get trapped. Particularly, acute pain is known to be the primary symptom of SCD.

Preoperative Prognosis Assessment of Lumbar Spinal Surgery for Low Back Pain and Sciatica Patients based on Multimodalities and Multimodal Learning [PDF]
Low back pain (LBP) and sciatica may require surgical therapy when they are symptomatic of severe pain. However, there is no effective measures to evaluate the surgical outcomes in advance. This work combined elements of Eastern medicine and machine learning, and developed a preoperative assessment tool to predict the prognosis of lumbar spinal surgery

The circRNA circNAB1 is downregulated in AF patient. Silencing circNAB1 promotes collagen deposition and inflammation, whereas overexpression reduces AF susceptibility. circNAB1 encodes the protein NAB1 356 that interacts with EGR1 to mitigate fibrosis and inflammation.
