Mortality Prediction with Adaptive Feature Importance Recalibration for Peritoneal Dialysis Patients: a deep-learning-based study on a real-world longitudinal follow-up dataset [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Objective: Peritoneal Dialysis (PD) is one of the most widely used life-supporting therapies for patients with End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). Predicting mortality risk and identifying modifiable risk factors based on the Electronic Medical Records (EMR) collected along with the follow-up visits are of great importance for personalized medicine and ...

Clinically Relevant Metallic Nanoparticles in Tuberculosis Diagnosis and Therapy
Advanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.Tuberculosis (TB) remains a global health challenge, with drug‐resistant strains exacerbating the issue. Metallic nanoparticles (MNPs) show promise in TB diagnosis as sensor probes and in combination therapy with antimycobacterial drugs, requiring further pre‐clinical and clinical research for clinical translation.

AADNMR: A Simple Method for Rapid Identification of Bacterial/Mycobacterial Infections in Antibiotic Treated Peritoneal Dialysis Effluent Samples for Diagnosis of Infectious Peritonitis [PDF]
arXiv, 2014 An efficient method is reported for rapid identification of bacterial or mycobacterial infection in a suspected clinical/biological sample. The method is based on the fact that the ring methylene protons of cyclic fatty acids (constituting the cell membrane of several species of bacteria and mycobacteria) resonate specifically between -0.40 and 0.68 ...

Bee Better: The Role of Honey in Modern Wound Care
Advanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.The use of honey as a wound care agent is controversial but paradoxically increasingly popular. Honey possesses relevant antimicrobial properties and can modulate the immune system. The wound healing properties of honey likely depend on its composition and varies across wound types.

New mathematical model for fluid-glucose-albumin transport in peritoneal dialysis [PDF]
arXiv, 2011 A mathematical model for fluid transport in peritoneal dialysis is constructed. The model is based on a three-component nonlinear system of two-dimensional partial differential equations for fluid, glucose and albumin transport with the relevant boundary and initial conditions. Non-constant steady-state solutions of the model are studied.

UFMylation of NLRP3 Prevents Its Autophagic Degradation and Facilitates Inflammasome Activation
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This article studies the role of UFMylation in NLRP3 inflammasome activation. It reveals that UFMylation, mediated by the E3 Ufm1‐ligase 1 (Ufl1), maintains NLRP3 stability by preventing its ubiquitination and subsequent autophagic degradation.
