Increased expression of two alternative spliced variants of CD1d molecule in human gastric cancer [PDF]
Background: CD1d presents glycolipid antigens to invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells. The role of CD1d in the development of peptic ulcer and gastric cancer has not been revealed, yet.

Mathematical modeling of Buruli ulcer spread [PDF]
We propose two approaches to a model deduction for Buruli ulcer spread in a tissue, prove global existence of solutions to the obtained macroscopic cross-diffusion PDE-ODE systems, and perform numerical simulations to illustrate the behavior of solutions under various scenarios and compare the outcome of the two approaches.

Improving Limited Supervised Foot Ulcer Segmentation Using Cross-Domain Augmentation [PDF]
Diabetic foot ulcers pose health risks, including higher morbidity, mortality, and amputation rates. Monitoring wound areas is crucial for proper care, but manual segmentation is subjective due to complex wound features and background variation. Expert annotations are costly and time-intensive, thus hampering large dataset creation.

Predicting ulcer in H&E images of inflammatory bowel disease using domain-knowledge-driven graph neural network [PDF]
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) involves chronic inflammation of the digestive tract, with treatment options often burdened by adverse effects. Identifying biomarkers for personalized treatment is crucial. While immune cells play a key role in IBD, accurately identifying ulcer regions in whole slide images (WSIs) is essential for characterizing these ...
