Prognostic Model for Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Using Context-Aware Sequential-Parallel Hybrid Transformer and Enriched Clinical Information [PDF]

arXiv
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive disease that irreversibly transforms lung tissue into rigid fibrotic structures, leading to debilitating symptoms such as shortness of breath and chronic fatigue. The heterogeneity and complexity of this disease, particularly regarding its severity and progression rate, have made predicting its ...

Capacity of Discrete Molecular Diffusion Channels [PDF]

arXiv, 2011
In diffusion-based molecular communications, messages can be conveyed via the variation in the concentration of molecules in the medium. In this paper, we intend to analyze the achievable capacity in transmission of information from one node to another in a diffusion channel. We observe that because of the molecular diffusion in the medium, the channel

Altered pulmonary function in bronchial asthma [PDF]

, 1976
Asthma has attracted a great deal of attention over the centuries both because it is common and because of its frequent dramatic manner of presentation (Ellul-Micallef, 1976).

Extracellular Vesicular Delta‐Like Ligand 3 and Subtype Transcription Factors for Small Cell Lung Cancer Diagnosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) harbors high molecular heterogeneity. Using a new liquid biopsy assay, SCLC subtypes can be identified by measuring mRNA of subtype transcription factors (ASCL1, POU2F3, and NEUROD1) in exosome‐rich extracellular vesicles. Combining with Delta‐like ligand 3 (DLL3) mRNA in exosomes and its membrane protein in extracellular ...

Targeting PFKFB4 Biomimetic Codelivery System Synergistically Enhances Ferroptosis to Suppress Small Cell Lung Cancer and Augments the Efficacy of Anti‐PD‐L1 Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, a targeting PFKFB4 biomimetic codelivery system is developed to improve paclitaxel efficacy by inducing ferroptosis in SCLC. This system enhances immune cell infiltration and cytokine secretion, activating anti‐tumor immunity. Combined with anti‐PD‐L1, it boosts immune responses, offering a novel therapeutic strategy for overcoming ...

CT-3DFlow : Leveraging 3D Normalizing Flows for Unsupervised Detection of Pathological Pulmonary CT scans [PDF]

arXiv
Unsupervised pathology detection can be implemented by training a model on healthy data only and measuring the deviation from the training set upon inference, for example with CNN-based feature extraction and one-class classifiers, or reconstruction-score-based methods such as AEs, GANs and Diffusion models.

Locating Order-Disorder Phase Transition in a Cardiac System [PDF]

Sci Rep 8: 1967, 2018, 2017
To prevent sudden cardiac death, predicting where in the cardiac system an order-disorder phase transition into ventricular fibrillation begins is as important as when it begins. We present a computationally efficient, information-theoretic approach to predicting the locations of wavebreaks that initiate fibrillation in a cardiac system where the order-

Inhalable Polymeric Nanoparticle Containing Triphenylphosphanium Bromide‐modified Sonosensitizer for Enhanced Therapy of Acute Bacterial Pneumonia

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Bacterial pneumonia is the sixth leading cause of death. In this study, an inhalable polymeric nanoparticle NPFCPS‐P is developed, which under US stimulation showed high efficacy in the treatment of acute bacterial pneumonia. This nanoplatform would be much less prone to select bacterial resistance and represented a promising measure for antibiotics ...
