Poultry Diseases Expert System using Dempster-Shafer Theory [PDF]
Based on World Health Organization (WHO) fact sheet in the 2011, outbreaks of poultry diseases especially Avian Influenza in poultry may raise global public health concerns due to their effect on poultry populations, their potential to cause serious disease in people, and their pandemic potential.

Infusing Disease Knowledge into BERT for Health Question Answering, Medical Inference and Disease Name Recognition [PDF]
Knowledge of a disease includes information of various aspects of the disease, such as signs and symptoms, diagnosis and treatment. This disease knowledge is critical for many health-related and biomedical tasks, including consumer health question answering, medical language inference and disease name recognition. While pre-trained language models like

Tick‐borne infectious diseases in Australia
Tick bites in Australia can lead to a variety of illnesses in patients. These include infection, allergies, paralysis, autoimmune disease, post-infection fatigue and Australian multisystem disorder. Rickettsial (Rickettsia spp.) infections (Queensland tick typhus, Flinders Island spotted fever and Australian spotted fever) and Q fever (Coxiella ...

This study introduces an immunomodulatory DNA tetrahedral framework nucleic acid‐based nanovaccine tFNA‐CpG. The functionalized nanovaccine shows stable and well‐defined morphological characteristics and can be efficiently taken up by APCs. When combined with the immune checkpoint inhibitor anti‐PD‐1, it notably ameliorated the immunosuppressive ...

Microcontact printing (µCP) is a widely used technique for microscale surface patterning. In this study, we present a polymer‐supported µCP method for the patterning of (bioactive) glycosylated surfaces under hydrated conditions. Patterning is achieved by direct contact with a grooved polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) stamp, whose surface was grafted with a ...

Utah Tick Surveillance an Animated Public Service Announcement [PDF]
As the United States’ population grows, we develop more land into housing and recreate farther into wilderness areas, consequentially encountering ticks with increasing frequency. As the climate continues to change, tick population distributions are also

The Chemistry and Biology of the Tetrodotoxin Natural Product Family
Tetrodotoxin is a neurotoxic marine alkaloid, first isolated in 1909 from pufferfish and named after the biological order tetraodontiformes. Since its structural elucidation in 1964, it has attracted the interest of synthetic organic chemists due to its exceptional polarity, complex architecture, and important biological activity.

A framework for adaptive surveillance of emerging tick-borne zoonoses
Significant global ecological changes continue to drive emergence of tick-borne zoonoses around the world. This poses an important threat to both human and animal health, and highlights the need for surveillance systems that are capable of monitoring ...

Computational Approaches for Disease Gene Identification [PDF]
Identifying disease genes from human genome is an important and fundamental problem in biomedical research. Despite many publications of machine learning methods applied to discover new disease genes, it still remains a challenge because of the pleiotropy of genes, the limited number of confirmed disease genes among whole genome and the genetic ...
