Local and global analysis of endocrine regulation as a non-cyclic feedback system [PDF]
To understand the sophisticated control mechanisms of the human's endocrine system is a challenging task that is a crucial step towards precise medical treatment of many disfunctions and diseases. Although mathematical models describing the endocrine system as a whole are still elusive, recently some substantial progress has been made in analyzing ...

Insights into endocrine-immunological disturbances in autoimmunity and their impact on treatment [PDF]
The neuroendocrine immune (NEI) system is regarded as a fundamental network for the maintenance of health status (homeostasis), and it plays an important role in several systemic diseases, including autoimmune disorders.

Systems Biology: Identifiability analysis and parameter identification via systems-biology informed neural networks [PDF]
The dynamics of systems biological processes are usually modeled by a system of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) with many unknown parameters that need to be inferred from noisy and sparse measurements. Here, we introduce systems-biology informed neural networks for parameter estimation by incorporating the system of ODEs into the neural networks.

The Adrenal Gland: Central Relay in Health and Disease [PDF]
Diseases of the adrenal gland are as important for the general practitioner as for the endocrine specialist. The high prevalence of some adrenal endocrinopathies, such as adrenal incidentalomas (1-2% of the population) and primary aldosteronism (6% of ...

New Arabic Medical Dataset for Diseases Classification [PDF]
The Arabic language suffers from a great shortage of datasets suitable for training deep learning models, and the existing ones include general non-specialized classifications. In this work, we introduce a new Arab medical dataset, which includes two thousand medical documents collected from several Arabic medical websites, in addition to the Arab ...

One special question to start with: can HIF/NFkB be a target in inflammation? [PDF]
Hypoxia and Inflammation are strictly interconnected with important consequences at clinical and therapeutic level. While cell and tissue damage due to acute hypoxia mostly leads to cell necrosis, in chronic hypoxia, cells that are located closer to ...

Expert System Based On Neural-Fuzzy Rules for Thyroid Diseases Diagnosis [PDF]
The thyroid, an endocrine gland that secretes hormones in the blood, circulates its products to all tissues of the body, where they control vital functions in every cell. Normal levels of thyroid hormone help the brain, heart, intestines, muscles and reproductive system function normally.
