Automated Skin Lesion Classification Using Ensemble of Deep Neural Networks in ISIC 2018: Skin Lesion Analysis Towards Melanoma Detection Challenge [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
In this paper, we studied extensively on different deep learning based methods to detect melanoma and skin lesion cancers. Melanoma, a form of malignant skin cancer is very threatening to health. Proper diagnosis of melanoma at an earlier stage is crucial for the success rate of complete cure.

An invariant-based damage model for human and animal skins [PDF]

, 2016
Constitutive modelling of skins that account for damage effects is important to provide insight for various clinical applications, such as skin trauma and injury, artificial skin design, skin aging, disease diagnosis, surgery, as well as comparative ...

ShcD adaptor protein drives invasion of triple negative breast cancer cells by aberrant activation of EGFR signaling

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We identified adaptor protein ShcD as upregulated in triple‐negative breast cancer and found its expression to be correlated with reduced patient survival and increased invasion in cell models. Using a proteomic screen, we identified novel ShcD binding partners involved in EGFR signaling pathways.

Histoplasmin and paracoccidioidin skin reactivity in infantile population of Northern Argentina Reatividade cutânea à histoplasmina e paracoccidioidina na população infantil do norte da Argentina

Revista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 1996
In order to estimate ages at which etiological agents of systemic mycoses initiate infection, histoplasmin and paracoccidioidin skin tests were performed in 344 children of both sexes, between 2 and 15 years old.

Effect of skin temperature on skin endothelial function assessment [PDF]

, 2013
PURPOSE: Microcirculatory dysfunction plays a key role in the development of sepsis during which core temperature is often disturbed. Skin microvascular assessment using laser techniques has been suggested to evaluate microvascular dysfunction during ...

Targeting the AKT/mTOR pathway attenuates the metastatic potential of colorectal carcinoma circulating tumor cells in a murine xenotransplantation model

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dual targeting of AKT and mTOR using MK2206 and RAD001 reduces tumor burden in an intracardiac colon cancer circulating tumor cell xenotransplantation model. Analysis of AKT isoform‐specific knockdowns in CTC‐MCC‐41 reveals differentially regulated proteins and phospho‐proteins by liquid chromatography coupled mass spectrometry. Circulating tumor cells

The Role of Medical History and Allergic Tests in the Analysis of Antibiotic Allergy in the Pediatric Population

Allergies
According to parental reports, about 10% of children are believed to be allergic to at least one antibiotic, leading to the prescription of second line medications. This incurs higher costs, results in less effective treatments, and contributes to global

Lesion Net -- Skin Lesion Segmentation Using Coordinate Convolution and Deep Residual Units [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Skin lesions segmentation is an important step in the process of automated diagnosis of the skin melanoma. However, the accuracy of segmenting melanomas skin lesions is quite a challenging task due to less data for training, irregular shapes, unclear boundaries, and different skin colors.

Effect of a Clinical Evidence Technology on Patient Skin Disease Outcomes in Primary Care: A Cluster-Randomized Controlled Trial [PDF]

, 2018
Objective: Providers’ use of clinical evidence technologies (CETs) improves their diagnosis and treatment decisions. Despite these benefits, few studies have evaluated the impact of CETs on patient outcomes. Investigators evaluated the effect of one CET,

Skin prick testing in patients using beta-blockers: a retrospective analysis [PDF]

, 2010
Rationale The use of beta-blockers is a relative contraindication in allergen skin testing yet there is a paucity of literature on adverse events in this circumstance.
