Alternative statistical methods for cytogenetic radiation biological dosimetry [PDF]
The paper presents alternative statistical methods for biological dosimetry, such as the Bayesian and Monte Carlo method. The classical Gaussian and robust Bayesian fit algorithms for the linear, linear-quadratic as well as saturated and critical calibration curves are described. The Bayesian model selection algorithm for those curves is also presented.

ABSTRACT With the recent publication of new classification systems of hematopoietic neoplasms, understanding how recognition of disease entities has occurred over time and the subsequent development of formal disease classifications is of importance. This review focuses on the early recognition of myeloid disorders, especially chronic myeloid disorders,

Application of Deep Learning on Predicting Prognosis of Acute Myeloid Leukemia with Cytogenetics, Age, and Mutations [PDF]
We explore how Deep Learning (DL) can be utilized to predict prognosis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Out of TCGA (The Cancer Genome Atlas) database, 94 AML cases are used in this study. Input data include age, 10 common cytogenetic and 23 most common mutation results; output is the prognosis (diagnosis to death, DTD). In our DL network, autoencoders

A Critical Review of the Impact of Candidate Copy Number Variants on Autism Spectrum Disorders [PDF]
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a heterogeneous neurodevelopmental disorder (NDD) that is caused by genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors. Recent advances in genomic analysis have uncovered numerous candidate genes with common and/or rare mutations that increase susceptibility to ASD.

No evidence that FLT3 status should be considered as an indicator for transplantation in acute myeloid leukemia (AML): an analysis of 1135 patients, excluding acute promyelocytic leukemia, from the UK MRC AML 10 and 12 trials [PDF]
Fetal liver tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) internal tandem duplications (ITDs) are powerful adverse prognostic indicators for relapse in acute myelold leukemia (AML) but the most efficacious therapy for FLT3/ ITD+ patients is currently unknown.

Targeted Therapies in Myelofibrosis: Present Landscape, Ongoing Studies, and Future Perspectives
ABSTRACT Myelofibrosis (MF) is a myeloproliferative neoplasm that is accompanied by driver JAK2, CALR, or MPL mutations in more than 90% of cases, leading to constitutive activation of the JAK–STAT pathway. MF is a multifaceted disease characterized by trilineage myeloid proliferation with prominent megakaryocyte atypia and bone marrow fibrosis, as ...
