Modeling Factors Associated With Diarrhea Caused by Cryptosporidium Species Using Machine Learning Methods. [PDF]
J Clin Lab AnalThis study applies machine learning methods, specifically Random Forest and Bagged CART, to classify Cryptosporidium spp. infections among children and identify key risk factors. The Bagged CART model demonstrated superior sensitivity and predictive performance, highlighting household crowding and water source as the most influential determinants of ...

Sensitive detection systems for infectious agents in xenotransplantation*
Xenotransplantation, EarlyView., 2020 Abstract Xenotransplantation of pig cells, tissues, or organs may be associated with transmission of porcine microorganisms, first of all of viruses, to the transplant recipient, potentially inducing a disease (zoonosis). I would like to define detection systems as the complex of sample generation, sample preparation, sample origin, time of sampling ...
