Activation of Coagulation and Fibrinolysis in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome: a Prospective Pilot Study

Introduction: Coagulation and fibrinolysis remain sparsely addressed with regards to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). We hypothesized that ARDS development might be associated with changes in plasma coagulation and fibrinolysis. ...

Fundamentals of Probability and Statistics for Engineers

This textbook differs from others in the field in that it has been prepared very much with students and their needs in mind, having been classroom tested over many years. It is a true "learner's book" made for students who require a deeper ...

Statistics for Research

Praise for the Second Edition "Statistics for Research has other fine qualities besides superior organization. The examples and the statistical methods are laid out with unusual clarity by the simple device of using special formats for each...

The countercyclical effect of fiscal rules in Russia

The instability of economic processes fuels the inconsistency of the revenue flow to the budget system. In order to overcome the cyclical nature of the budget process, which depends on cyclical fluctuations of economic conditions, fiscal ru...

NON-INVASIVE INVESTIGATIONS IN HEROIN USERS AND NON-USERS-A CASE CONTROL STUDY

bjective: To compare heroin users with their age and gender matched relatives as regards non-invasive investigations like chest x-ray, electrocardiography (ECG) and 2D-echocardiography. Study Design: Case control study. Place and Duration o...

The Balanced Opioid Initiative: protocol for a clustered, sequential, multiple-assignment randomized trial to construct an adaptive implementation strategy to improve guideline-concordant opioid prescribing in primary care

Abstract Background Rates of opioid prescribing tripled in the USA between 1999 and 2015 and were associated with significant increases in opioid misuse and overdose death. Roughly half of all opioids are prescribed in primary care. Althoug...

Linking Data for Mothers and Babies in De-Identified Electronic Health Data.

ObjectiveLinkage of longitudinal administrative data for mothers and babies supports research and service evaluation in several populations around the world. We established a linked mother-baby cohort using pseudonymised, population-level d...

Establishment of a Pre-vascularized 3D Lung Cancer Model in Fibrin Gel—Influence of Hypoxia and Cancer-Specific Therapeutics

Lung cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer worldwide and the one that causes the highest mortality. In order to understand the disease and to develop new treatments, in vitro human lung cancer model systems which imitate the physio...

Mobile App Prototype in Older Adults for Postfracture Acute Pain Management: User-Centered Design Approach

BackgroundPostfracture acute pain is often inadequately managed in older adults. Mobile health (mHealth) technologies can offer opportunities for self-management of pain; however, insufficient apps exist for acute pain management after a fr...

Study on the preparation of multifunctional bacterial cellulose-based wound dressings and their in vitro hemostatic performance

Abstract Bacterial cellulose (BC) is a favored material for medical wound dressings due to its biocompatibility and water-holding capacity, yet it lacks inherent antibacterial and hemostatic capabilities. To enhance its functionality, a nov...

Post-quantum cognitive zero trust architecture for healthcare IoT devices.

Healthcare IoT systems increasingly rely on interconnected, resource-constrained devices that are vulnerable to both classical and emerging quantum-enabled cyber threats, but introduced heightened cybersecurity risks, particularly from emer...

Quantum computing: a gentle introduction

The combination of two of the twentieth centurys most influential and revolutionary scientific theories, information theory and quantum mechanics, gave rise to a radically new view of computing and information. Quantum information processin...

Quantum Computing for Healthcare: A Review

In recent years, the interdisciplinary field of quantum computing has rapidly developed and garnered substantial interest from both academia and industry due to its ability to process information in fundamentally different ways, leading to ...

Coalition of explainable artificial intelligence and quantum computing in precision medicine

This survey examines the convergence of Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) and Quantum Computing (QC) toward precision medicine. We review developments from 2018 to 2025, summarizing quantum algorithms, quantum-machine-learning model...

Quantum computing

The subject of quantum computing brings together ideas from classical information theory, computer science, and quantum physics. This review aims to summarize not just quantum computing, but the whole subject of quantum information theory. ...

Development and characterization of 3D spinal cord organoids to advance the study of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

A maladaptive ER stress response triggers dysfunction in highly active muscles of mice with SELENON loss

Selenoprotein N (SELENON) is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) protein whose loss of function leads to human SELENON-related myopathies. SelenoN knockout (KO) mouse limb muscles, however, are protected from the disease, and display no major alt...

Differential Expression of Serum TUG1, LINC00657, miR-9, and miR-106a in Diabetic Patients With and Without Ischemic Stroke

Background: Ischemic stroke is one of the serious complications of diabetes. Non-coding RNAs are established as promising biomarkers for diabetes and its complications. The present research investigated the expression profiles of serum TUG1...

Graphs in molecular biology

Graph theoretical concepts are useful for the description and analysis of interactions and relationships in biological systems. We give a brief introduction into some of the concepts and their areas of application in molecular biology. We d...

Externally triggered drug delivery systems

Externally triggered drug delivery systems empower patients or healthcare providers to utilize external stimuli to initiate drug release from implanted systems. This approach holds significant potential for clinical disease management, offe...
