Measuring and estimating interaction between exposures on dichotomous outcome of a population [PDF]
In observational studies for the interaction between exposures on dichotomous outcome of a population, one usually uses one parameter of a regression model to describe the interaction, leading to one measure of the interaction. In this article, we use the conditional risk of outcome given exposures and covariates to describe the interaction and obtain ...

Abstract Background The epidemiological profiles of gastrointestinal (GI) cancers vary across countries and over time, largely reflecting variations in risk factors and screening practices. We aimed to provide an overview of the current global burden of the five major types of GI cancers and conduct an updated evaluation of the long‐term trends of GI ...

Identification of Essential Proteins Using Induced Stars in Protein-Protein Interaction Networks [PDF]
In this work, we propose a novel centrality metric, referred to as star centrality, which incorporates information from the closed neighborhood of a node, rather than solely from the node itself, when calculating its topological importance. More specifically, we focus on degree centrality and show that in the complex protein-protein interaction ...

Multi-omic Network Regression: Methodology, Tool and Case Study [PDF]
The analysis of biological networks is characterized by the definition of precise linear constraints used to cumulatively reduce the solution space of the computed states of a multi-omic (for instance metabolic, transcriptomic and proteomic) model.

South African Propolis: Anti‐Helicobacter pylori Activity, Chemistry, and Toxicity
ABSTRACT Propolis, a resin‐like substance produced by bees, has previously shown antimicrobial activity against the ulcer‐causing gut pathogen Helicobacter pylori. South African propolis, however, was yet to be investigated. This study aimed to investigate a comprehensive range of South African propolis for its antimicrobial activity against H.

Gastric cancer and Helicobacter pylori: a combined analysis of 12 case control studies nested within prospective cohorts [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The magnitude of the association between Helicobacter pylori and incidence of gastric cancer is unclear. H pylori infection and the circulating antibody response can be lost with development of cancer; thus retrospective studies are ...

Citrus Flavonoids as Antimicrobials
Citrus flavonoids are powerful and versatile antimicrobials whose mechanism of action often involves disruption of the bacterial membrane, thereby minimizing antimicrobial resistance. This study provides a unified perspective. ABSTRACT Citrus flavonoids are highly bioactive compounds exerting numerous health benefits including anticancer, antioxidant ...
