Challenges and opportunities in uncertainty quantification for healthcare and biological systems

Philosophical transactions. Series A, Mathematical, physical, and engineering sciences
Uncertainty quantification (UQ) is an essential aspect of computational modelling and statistical prediction. Multiple applications, including geophysics, climate science and aerospace engineering, incorporate UQ in the development and translation of new

Infection Control Practices for Vascular Access Management in Hemodialysis: Results From a Nationwide Survey of Japanese National University Hospitals

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Bloodstream infections due to repeated vascular access (VA) puncture and circuit connections remain major concerns in hemodialysis. Therefore, we examined current practices for glove, disinfectant, and personal protective equipment (PPE) use according to VA type in national university hospitals in Japan.

Detection and annotation of transposable element insertions and deletions on the human genome using nanopore sequencing

iScience, 2023
Summary: Repetitive sequences represent about 45% of the human genome. Some are transposable elements (TEs) with the ability to change their position in the genome, creating genetic variability both as insertions or deletions, with potential pathogenic ...

Exploring High-Dimensional Biological Data with Sparse Contrastive Principal Component Analysis

bioRxiv, 2019
Motivation Statistical analyses of high-throughput sequencing data have re-shaped the biological sciences. In spite of myriad advances, recovering interpretable biological signal from data corrupted by technical noise remains a prevalent open problem ...

A Bibliometric Analysis of Publications in Uremic Toxins From 1991 to 2024

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Uremic toxins are a growing area of research in nephrology, with significant implications in the progression and treatment of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and the management of end‐stage kidney disease (ESKD). This bibliometric analysis aims to evaluate the global research trends, key contributors, and the impact of publications in ...

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

High-content imaging of primary chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells predicts patient cohorts with distinct cellular drug responses

iScience
Summary: Cancer precision medicine benefits from identifying biomarkers that can predict therapy response. However, within a population of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) patients, there is heterogeneity that is inherent to the disease and also ...

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

HIV-1 env gene mutations outside the targeting probe affects IPDA efficiency

iScience
Summary: The intact proviral DNA assay (IPDA) based on droplet digital PCR was developed to identify intact proviral DNA and quantify HIV-1 latency reservoirs in patients infected with HIV-1.
