What's new? Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)‐mutant gliomas typically affect young adults and invariably progress toward increasingly malignant phenotypes, despite treatment. Recurrence often is unpredictable, however, indicating a need for a deeper understanding of factors that drive disease return.

Mixture of Input-Output Hidden Markov Models for Heterogeneous Disease Progression Modeling [PDF]
A particular challenge for disease progression modeling is the heterogeneity of a disease and its manifestations in the patients. Existing approaches often assume the presence of a single disease progression characteristics which is unlikely for neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson's disease.

ABSTRACT Background Tanning addiction is a behavioral addiction characterized by an irrepressible desire for sun or ultraviolet light exposure. It is thought to affect 10% to 25% of the population. Objectives This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of this behavior in patients with moderate‐to‐severe psoriasis and identify associated factors ...

Abstract Purpose Platelet‐rich plasma (PRP) could be a vector for certain diseases, and its composition may vary by pathologic condition. The main comorbidities that could affect PRP composition are infectious, oncologic and haematologic. In addition to potential alteration of clinical response, these pathologies could have a significant impact on the ...

The Effect of Disease-induced Mortality on Structural Network Properties [PDF]
As the understanding of the importance of social contact networks in the spread of infectious diseases has increased, so has the interest in understanding the feedback process of the disease altering the social network. While many studies have explored the influence of individual epidemiological parameters and/or underlying network topologies on the ...

Abstract Background The use of artificial intelligence (AI) for lesion detection has witnessed increased interest and efforts in recent years. Meanwhile, task‐specific characterization and comparison of AI performance is lacking as supportive evidence prior to its implementation in the clinical setting.

Phase diagram of epidemic spreading - unimodal vs. bimodal probability distributions [PDF]
The disease spreading on complex networks is studied in SIR model. Simulations on empirical complex networks reveal two specific regimes of disease spreading: local containment and epidemic outbreak. The variables measuring the extent of disease spreading are in general characterized by a bimodal probability distribution.
