R‐APEX: A Knowledge Graph–Based Platform for the Elucidation of the Toxicological Mechanisms of Ambient Particulate Matter

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
R‐APEX is a knowledge graph platform developed to investigate how air pollutants such as particularly fine particulate matter (PM2.5) affect human health. By integrating large‐scale biomedical data and using machine learning, it reveals pollutant–gene–disease associations.

Optimized DeepLabV3+ for Clinical Data Analysis through Advanced Particle Swarm Optimization‐Based Channel Selection

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A novel medical image segmentation framework that integrates an enhanced Particle Swarm Optimization (EE‐PSO) into DeepLabV3+ to optimize feature selection. By dynamically identifying key channels in the atrous spatial pyramid pooling module, the method improves segmentation performance, achieving mIoU gains of 2.7% on Alzheimer's and 2.8% on brain ...

Neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio and clinical outcomes in COPD: recent evidence and future perspectives

European Respiratory Review, 2018
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a disabling condition that is characterised by poorly reversible airflow limitation and inflammation. Acute exacerbations of COPD are a common cause of hospitalisation and death among COPD patients. Several

Autonomous Recognition of Retained Secretions in Central‐Airway Based on Deep Learning for Adult Patients Receiving Invasive Mechanical Ventilation

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This work presents a deep learning model to autonomously recognize and classify the secretion retention into three levels for patients receiving invasive mechanical ventilation, achieving 89.08% accuracy. This model can be implemented to ventilators by edge computing, whose feasibility is approved.

Sulfur Dioxide‐ and Fluoride‐Associated Declines in Lung Function Over an 11‐Year Observation Among Aluminum Smelter Workers

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Work exposure‐related declines in lung function among aluminum smelter workers are well documented, yet task‐varying exposures are likely to contribute differently to respiratory outcomes. This study aimed to assess the association between potroom exposure and lung function changes over time among aluminum smelter workers. Methods A

Exposure Registries as a Prevention Tool for Occupational Cancers: Establishing a New Hazardous Drug Registry for Oncology Personnel

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Public health registries collect and maintain demographic and health data on a cohort of people with a common disease or exposure. While disease registries have proliferated in recent decades, registries comprising persons with potentially hazardous exposures—known commonly as exposure registries—are rare.

The HRAS Variant c.175G>A (p.Ala59Thr) Causes a Predominantly Ectodermal Phenotype Lacking Classic Costello Syndrome Features

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Costello syndrome (CS) is a rare dominant HRAS RASopathy characterized by curly hair, cardiac abnormalities, craniofacial anomalies, and developmental delay. HRAS codon 58, 59, and 60 variants are associated with milder phenotypes. We describe a three‐generation family with a previously unreported heterozygous HRAS variant c.175G>A (p.Ala59Thr)
