Assessment of Human Sperm Kinematic Parameters Using Computer-Assisted Semen Analysis

Hittite Journal of Science and Engineering
Infertility affects approximately 15% of couples trying to conceive, as reported by the World Health Organization. It is diagnosed when conception does not occur despite unprotected intercourse over the course of at least one ...

Snapshot multispectral imaging using a filter array [PDF]

International Workshop on Image Sensors and Imaging Systems (IWISS2018), 2018
A multispectral filter array (MSFA) is one solution for capturing a multispectral image (MSI) in a single shot at low cost. We introduce our optimization method of the spectral sensitivity of the MSFAs and demosaicking, and show a new prototype filter array for snapshot imaging based on a photonic crystal.

Targeting PRAME directly or via EZH2 inhibition overcomes retinoid resistance and represents a novel therapy for keratinocyte carcinoma

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The study evaluated the function and therapeutic implications of PRAME in basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). The findings demonstrate that PRAME impairs keratinocyte differentiation pathways. Furthermore, PRAME impairs anticancer response to retinoid compounds in BCC and SCC cells.

Classification of acute myeloid leukemia based on multi‐omics and prognosis prediction value

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The Unsupervised AML Multi‐Omics Classification System (UAMOCS) integrates genomic, methylation, and transcriptomic data to categorize AML patients into three subtypes (UAMOCS1‐3). This classification reveals clinical relevance, highlighting immune and chromosomal characteristics, prognosis, and therapeutic vulnerabilities.

A Comprehensive Review of Image Enhancement Techniques [PDF]

Journal of Computing, Volume 2, Issue 3, March 2010, https://sites.google.com/site/journalofcomputing/, 2010
Principle objective of Image enhancement is to process an image so that result is more suitable than original image for specific application. Digital image enhancement techniques provide a multitude of choices for improving the visual quality of images.

Adverse prognosis gene expression patterns in metastatic castration‐resistant prostate cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We aggregated a cohort of 1012 mCRPC tissue samples from 769 patients and investigated the association of gene expression‐based pathways with clinical outcomes. Loss of AR signaling, high proliferation, and a glycolytic phenotype were independently prognostic for poor outcomes, and an adverse transcriptional feature score incorporating these pathways ...

Convolutional neural networks model improvements using demographics and image processing filters on chest x-rays [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to observe change in accuracies of convolutional neural networks (CNN) models (ratio of correct classifications to total predictions) on thoracic radiological images by creating different binary classification models based on age, gender, and image pre-processing filters on 14 pathologies. Methodology: This is a

Plasma lipidomic and metabolomic profiles in high‐grade glioma patients before and after 72‐h presurgery water‐only fasting

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Presurgery 72‐h fasting in GB patients leads to adaptations of plasma lipids and polar metabolites. Fasting reduces lysophosphatidylcholines and increases free fatty acids, shifts triglycerides toward long‐chain TGs and increases branched‐chain amino acids, alpha aminobutyric acid, and uric acid.

Deep Camera: A Fully Convolutional Neural Network for Image Signal Processing [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
A conventional camera performs various signal processing steps sequentially to reconstruct an image from a raw Bayer image. When performing these processing in multiple stages the residual error from each stage accumulates in the image and degrades the quality of the final reconstructed image.

Highly multiplexed digital PCR assay for simultaneous quantification of variant allele frequencies and copy number alterations of KRAS and GNAS in pancreatic cancer precursors

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Combining melting curve analysis enhances the multiplexing capability of digital PCR. Here, we developed a 14‐plex assay to simultaneously measure single nucleotide mutations and amplifications of KRAS and GNAS, which are common driver genes in pancreatic cancer precursors. This assay accurately quantified variant allele frequencies in clinical samples
