Visualization of large-scale protein and disease networks
This document discusses the visualization of large protein and disease networks. It describes using visualization tools to analyze gene expression over time during the cell cycle, and how this revealed temporal networks. It also discusses the STRING database, which maps known and predicted protein-protein interactions, functional associations, and pathways. Finally, it discusses analyzing Danish national healthcare registry data to map disease networks and trajectories, which revealed temporal correlations between diagnoses and key diagnoses. Visualization is highlighted as being important for publishing results, exploring data, and making discoveries.
Experimental epidemiological methods
Experimental epidemiological studies involve investigators designing research with control over protective factors being studied. Subjects are randomly assigned to exposed and unexposed groups to eliminate confounding. Types of experimental studies include randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that evaluate therapies, controlled field trials (CFTs) of preventive interventions like vaccines, and community trials (CTs) involving whole communities, one exposed to a factor and one unexposed. These studies provide strong evidence when confounding is not an issue as in observational studies.

This document summarizes and comments on two scientific articles about recent research into noncoding RNA and developing vaccines for viruses. The first article discusses the discovery of a long noncoding RNA that regulates innate immunity and inflammation. The second describes work using a "genetic poison pill" to minimize mutations in a virus's RNA polymerase and reduce its ability to replicate when developing vaccines. The student observes that both studies could provide insights into treating inflammatory diseases and developing protections against lethal viruses.
Sequencing and Beyond?
The document discusses the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) of using whole genome sequencing (WGS) for surveillance and diagnostics of zoonotic bacteria. It provides a case study of using WGS to track the nosocomial transmission of Pseudomonas aeruginosa between patients and the hospital water supply. WGS was able to identify transmission routes and microevolution of the bacteria with single nucleotide resolution. However, challenges include the need for robust and standardized analysis methods as well as experimental design considerations. Overall, WGS provides opportunities for improved outbreak tracking, classification, and diagnostics if its strengths are leveraged and weaknesses addressed.
JBry The Difference Between Physician Lit Review
Three studies found that physicians were more likely than nurses to have pathogenic bacteria on their stethoscopes. Questionnaires in these studies revealed that most physicians did not clean their stethoscope after each use, unlike nurses who reported cleaning after each use. However, one study found no significant difference in contamination between physicians and nurses. Overall, stethoscopes were shown to be a vector for spreading bacteria like MRSA and E. coli from healthcare workers to immunocompromised patients. More emphasis on stethoscope disinfection education and practices is still needed.

Descriptive epidemiology
This document provides an overview of descriptive epidemiology. Descriptive epidemiology is the first phase of an epidemiological investigation that aims to describe the distribution of a disease in terms of time, place, and person. It involves defining the population and disease, measuring disease occurrence, comparing disease rates between groups, and formulating hypotheses. The key procedures of descriptive epidemiology are to define the population and disease, measure disease occurrence through rates of mortality, morbidity and disability, compare disease occurrence between subgroups, and generate epidemiological hypotheses about disease etiology and dose-response relationships. The uses of descriptive epidemiology include determining disease magnitude, providing clues to disease causation, and generating background data to organize further research.
Climategate and scientific methodology
The document discusses the 2009 hacking of emails from the Climatic Research Unit at the University of East Anglia which led to public questions about the reliability and honesty of climate scientists. It summarizes concerns raised about the scientists' expressed reluctance to share data and code as requested, as well as references to a "trick" used to "hide the decline". However, it also notes that nothing in the emails provides evidence of a conspiracy or data falsification. The document examines issues around scientific transparency, biases, and building public trust in science.
remote_research_visits_final_digital_health
The document describes a study that evaluated conducting remote clinical assessments of individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD) who had undergone direct-to-consumer genetic testing. 50 participants with PD from 23 U.S. states completed remote assessments via video conferencing with a neurologist. The neurologist confirmed the self-reported PD diagnosis in all cases and found generally good agreement between self-reported data and clinical assessments, though agreement varied for specific symptoms. Most participants were satisfied with the virtual visit and expressed interest in future remote research participation. The study demonstrates the feasibility of remotely characterizing genotype and phenotype in geographically diverse populations.

External validation of qSOFA in comparison of SIRS criteria in ER
This study prospectively validated the quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (qSOFA) score against the Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS) criteria for predicting in-hospital mortality in patients with suspected infection visiting 39 emergency departments in Japan. The qSOFA score (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve difference of +0.13, 95% confidence interval [+0.07, +0.18]) and net reclassification improvement (+0.39, 95% confidence interval [+0.15, +0.57]) more accurately predicted mortality than SIRS criteria. However, the qSOFA score alone was insufficient to predict sepsis mortality.

Ontology and the National Cancer Institute Thesaurus (2005)
The National Cancer Institute Thesaurus is described by its authors as "a biomedical vocabulary that provides consistent, unambiguous codes and definitions for concepts used in cancer research" and which "exhibits ontology-like properties in its construction and use". We performed a qualitative analysis of the Thesaurus in order to assess its conformity with principles of good practice in terminology and ontology design.
MATERIALS AND METHODS:
We used both the on-line browsable version of the Thesaurus and its OWL-representation (version 04.08b, released on August 2, 2004), measuring each in light of the requirements put forward in relevant ISO terminology standards and in light of ontological principles advanced in the recent literature.
RESULTS:
We found many mistakes and inconsistencies with respect to the term-formation principles used, the underlying knowledge representation system, and missing or inappropriately assigned verbal and formal definitions.
CONCLUSION:
Version 04.08b of the NCI Thesaurus suffers from the same broad range of problems that have been observed in other biomedical terminologies. For its further development, we recommend the use of a more principled approach that allows the Thesaurus to be tested not just for internal consistency but also for its degree of correspondence to that part of reality which it is designed to represent.

This document provides an overview of evidence-based physical diagnosis. It discusses how diagnosis has evolved from being based primarily on physical examination findings a century ago to now often relying on technological tests. However, physical examination is still important for diagnoses that can only be made at the bedside. The goals are to define evidence-based physical diagnosis and demonstrate how concepts in epidemiology, biostatistics and probability are applied. It also reviews the diagnostic process and provides definitions for diagnostic test statistics like sensitivity, specificity, and predictive values. Key concepts in pre-test and post-test probability are introduced as well.DukeTIPSummerStudiesProgram2016Term2

This study analyzed clinical and pathological features of 4187 patients with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) who were treated at a single Italian institution between 1969-2004. The patients were divided into two groups based on diagnosis before or after 1990. Results showed group 2 had a higher rate of micropapillary carcinoma, lower rate of follicular histotype, and more incidental findings. Features of aggressiveness were less common in group 2 and survival was higher. Advanced age and stage remained the most important poor prognostic factors for both groups.Caratteristiche cliniche e patologiche del carcinoma differenziato della tiro...

Extra Credit Exam Question Variation
An Australian study of 14,000 twin pairs sought to determine if there was a genetic basis for homosexuality. They focused on male identical twins. The researchers found that of the identical twin pairs where one twin was homosexual, 38% of the time the other twin was also homosexual. This suggests there may be a genetic influence for sexual orientation. However, the conclusion has limitations since other environmental factors could also influence sexual orientation.
Variation Lesson One
This 1 hour 30 minute lesson introduces students to the concept of variation within and between species. It aims to teach students key terms like genotype, phenotype, intraspecific and interspecific variation. The lesson will explore the genetic and environmental causes of variation and how variation can be measured on continuous or discontinuous scales. Students will consider examples of human traits that vary and sort them based on likely genetic or environmental influences. They will also discuss how confident we can be about stating single causes of variation, as influences are often complex.
Variation Lesson Two
Twins are used in variation studies because they allow researchers to isolate the effects of genetic and environmental factors. Studying twins who share genes but are raised in separate environments or together in the same environment can show whether differences between twins are due to nature or nurture. This helps researchers understand the relative contributions of genetic and environmental influences on traits.
Variation Is.
Variation exists between individuals of the same species due to both genetic and environmental factors. Genetic causes of variation include differences in DNA sequences between individuals, while environmental factors such as diet, climate, and other external influences can also impact variation. The document explores the sources and causes of variation between individuals.

Food Testing Carbohydrates
The document provides instructions for performing a series of tests to identify carbohydrates in food products. It describes preparing food samples, carrying out Benedict's test for reducing sugars, testing sensitivity of Benedict's test and Clinistix strips, and performing biochemical tests for non-reducing sugars and starch using Benedict's reagent and iodine solution. Observations are recorded and deductions made to identify which foods contain reducing sugars, non-reducing sugars, and starch.
Digestive System Label And Function
The human digestive system consists of the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, and rectum. Food moves through this system where it is broken down and absorbed. The small intestine plays an important role in digestion through villi and microvilli that increase surface area for absorption. Glands like the salivary glands, pancreas, and liver secrete enzymes to further break down food into molecules that can be absorbed and used by the body.

GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS AND GASTRITIS
Osvaldo Bernardo Muchanga
Gastrointestinal Infections
GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS result from the ingestion of pathogens that cause infections at the level of this tract, generally being transmitted by food, water and hands contaminated by microorganisms such as E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella, Vibrio cholerae, Campylobacter, Staphylococcus, Rotavirus among others that are generally contained in feces, thus configuring a FECAL-ORAL type of transmission.
Among the factors that lead to the occurrence of gastrointestinal infections are the hygienic and sanitary deficiencies that characterize our markets and other places where raw or cooked food is sold, poor environmental sanitation in communities, deficiencies in water treatment (or in the process of its plumbing), risky hygienic-sanitary habits (not washing hands after major and/or minor needs), among others.
These are generally consequences (signs and symptoms) resulting from gastrointestinal infections: diarrhea, vomiting, fever and malaise, among others.
The treatment consists of replacing lost liquids and electrolytes (drinking drinking water and other recommended liquids, including consumption of juicy fruits such as papayas, apples, pears, among others that contain water in their composition).
To prevent this, it is necessary to promote health education, improve the hygienic-sanitary conditions of markets and communities in general as a way of promoting, preserving and prolonging PUBLIC HEALTH.
Gastritis and Gastric Health
Gastric Health is one of the most relevant concerns in human health, with gastrointestinal infections being among the main illnesses that affect humans.
Among gastric problems, we have GASTRITIS AND GASTRIC ULCERS as the main public health problems. Gastritis and gastric ulcers normally result from inflammation and corrosion of the walls of the stomach (gastric mucosa) and are generally associated (caused) by the bacterium Helicobacter pylor, which, according to the literature, this bacterium settles on these walls (of the stomach) and starts to release urease that ends up altering the normal pH of the stomach (acid), which leads to inflammation and corrosion of the mucous membranes and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
In addition to bacterial infections, gastritis and gastric ulcers are associated with several factors, with emphasis on prolonged fasting, chemical substances including drugs, alcohol, foods with strong seasonings including chilli, which ends up causing inflammation of the stomach walls and/or corrosion. of the same, resulting in the appearance of wounds and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
Among patients with gastritis and/or ulcers, one of the dilemmas is associated with the foods to consume in order to minimize the sensation of pain and discomfort. June 2024 Oncology Cartoons By Dr Kanhu Charan Patro

PGx Analysis in VarSeq: A User’s Perspective
Since our release of the PGx capabilities in VarSeq, we’ve had a few months to gather some insights from various use cases. Some users approach PGx workflows by means of array genotyping or what seems to be a growing trend of adding the star allele calling to the existing NGS pipeline for whole genome data. Luckily, both approaches are supported with the VarSeq software platform. The genotyping method being used will also dictate what the scope of the tertiary analysis will be. For example, are your PGx reports a standalone pipeline or would your lab’s goal be to handle a dual-purpose workflow and report on PGx + Diagnostic findings.
The purpose of this webcast is to:
Discuss and demonstrate the approaches with array and NGS genotyping methods for star allele calling to prep for downstream analysis.
Following genotyping, explore alternative tertiary workflow concepts in VarSeq to handle PGx reporting.
Moreover, we will include insights users will need to consider when validating their PGx workflow for all possible star alleles and options you have for automating your PGx analysis for large number of samples. Please join us for a session dedicated to the application of star allele genotyping and subsequent PGx workflows in our VarSeq software.
