ConFER: A Neurally Constrained Computational Model of Context-Dependent Fear Extinction Recall and Relapse [PDF]

arXiv
Exposure therapy, a standard treatment for anxiety disorders, relies on fear extinction. However, extinction recall is often limited to the spatial and temporal context in which extinction is learned, leading to fear relapse in new settings or after delays. Animal studies offer insights into fear extinction in humans.

Post$-$operative glioblastoma cancer cell distribution in the peritumoural oedema [PDF]

arXiv
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), the most aggressive primary brain tumour, exhibits low survival rates due to its rapid growth, infiltrates surrounding brain tissue, and is highly resistant to treatment. One major challenge is oedema infiltration, a fluid build$-$up that provides a path for cancer cells to invade other areas.

Bayesian analysis of biomarker levels can predict time of recurrence of prostate cancer with strictly positive apparent Shannon information against an exponential attrition prior [PDF]

arXiv
Shariat et al previously investigated the possibility of predicting from clinical data (including Gleason grade and stage) and preoperative biomarkers, which of any pair of patients would suffer recurrence of prostate cancer first. We wished to establish the extent to which predictions of time of relapse from such a model could be improved upon using ...
