Time series analysis of Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis [PDF]
arXiv, 2013 The aim of this paper is to study the (clinical) time-series data of three diseases with complex dynamics: Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis. For this purpose, first all of the time series data are embedded in a vector space of suitable dimension and then the correlation dimension of the above mentioned ...

Increasing the Discovery Power and Confidence Levels of Disease Association Studies: A Survey [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 The majority of common diseases are influenced by multiple genetic and environmental factors such as Cancer. Even though uncovering the main causes of disease is deemed difficult due to the complexity of gene-gene and gene-environment interactions, major research efforts aim at identifying disease risk factors, especially genetic ones.

COLLAB: A Global Survey of Clinical and Laboratory Assessment in Alopecia Areata by Hair Specialists
JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Alopecia areata (AA) is a common non‐scarring alopecia. Data continue to emerge on associations with autoimmune and other conditions. Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKi) are increasingly used to treat AA. Objectives The aim was to assess variation in laboratory testing in patients with AA among hair experts internationally and to compare

The development of nations conditions the disease space [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Using the economic complexity methodology on data for disease prevalence in 195 countries during the period of 1990-2016, we propose two new metrics for quantifying the relatedness between diseases, or the `disease space' of countries. With these metrics, we analyze the geography of diseases and empirically investigate the effect of economic ...

Prevalence of Esophageal Webs in Patients Undergoing Direct Laryngoscopy
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.PES webs may be more common than what is traditionally cited in the literature. The prevalence of PES webs in this retrospective cohort study was found to be 34%. Webs may be more likely in patients with a history of irradiation to the head and neck, and only one‐third of patients with a PES web in our cohort had dysphagia symptoms.
