Similarities vs. key discrepancy between tuberculosis and cancer [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 In 2015 in the United States 612,000 persons died from cancer whereas only 470 died from tuberculosis (TB), a disease which was the main cause of death around 1900. How can one explain such a key discrepancy in treatment progress? A statistical comparison between TB and cancer will give some clues.

Explainable machine learning for neoplasms diagnosis via electrocardiograms: an externally validated study [PDF]
arXivBackground: Neoplasms remains a leading cause of mortality worldwide, with timely diagnosis being crucial for improving patient outcomes. Current diagnostic methods are often invasive, costly, and inaccessible to many populations. Electrocardiogram (ECG) data, widely available and non-invasive, has the potential to serve as a tool for neoplasms ...

Quantum Physics in Neuroscience and Psychology: A New Theory With Respect to Mind/Brain Interaction [PDF]
arXiv, 2004 The cognitive frame in which most neuropsychological research on the neural basis of behavior is conducted contains the assumption that brain mechanisms per se fully suffice to explain all psychologically described phenomena. This assumption stems from the idea that the brain is made up entirely of material particles and fields, and that all causal ...
