Strong‐LAMP Assay Based on a Strongyloides spp.‐Derived Partial Sequence in the 18S rRNA as Potential Biomarker for Strongyloidiasis Diagnosis in Human Urine Samples

Disease Markers, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Human strongyloidiasis a soil‐transmitted infection caused by Strongyloides stercoralis is one of the most neglected amongst the so‐called Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs). S. stercoralis is a nematode, which is distributed worldwide; it has been estimated that it could affect millions of people, mainly in tropical and subtropical endemic regions ...

The Prediction of Metro Shield Construction Cost Based on a Backpropagation Neural Network Improved by Quantum Particle Swarm Optimization

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
The prediction of construction cost of metro shield engineering is of great significance to project management. In this study, we used the rough set theory, a backpropagation (BP) neural network, and quantum particle swarm optimization (QPSO) to establish a prediction model for predicting the metro shield construction costs.

Molecular Markers for Detecting Schistosoma Species by Loop‐Mediated Isothermal Amplification

Disease Markers, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Schistosomiasis is considered a neglected parasitic disease. Around 280,000 people die from it annually, and more than 779 million people are at risk of getting infected. The schistosome species which infect human beings are Schistosoma mansoni, Schistosoma haematobium, Schistosoma intercalatum, Schistosoma japonicum, Schistosoma guineensis, and ...
