Abstract Background Developing and sustaining a data collection and management system (DCMS) is difficult in malaria-endemic countries because of limitations in internet... -
Distorted Dammann grating
We introduce the Dammann phase-encoding method into original distorted gratings and propose a modified distorted grating, called a distorted Dammann grating (DDG), to realize... -
High-speed linear detection time domain optical coherence tomography with ref...
We developed a high-speed linear detection time-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) technique that detected a reflective grating-generated spatial optical delay in the... -
Using predicate and provenance information from a knowledge graph for drug ef...
Abstract Background Biomedical knowledge graphs have become important tools to computationally analyse the comprehensive body of biomedical knowledge. They represent knowledge... -
Revealing topics and their evolution in biomedical literature using Bio-DTM: ...
Abstract Background Valuable scientific results on biomedicine are very rich, but they are widely scattered in the literature. Topic modeling enables researchers to discover... -
Telemedicine for general practice: a systematic review protocol
Abstract Background The use of information technology in healthcare is fast becoming an alternative and supporting method of providing many forms of services in a healthcare and... -
Saturated absorption competition microscopy
Owing to the advantage of being non-invasive in observing living samples, far-field optical microscopy is widely used in the life sciences, but the existence of the diffraction... -
Mapping the predicted and potential impacts of metal mining and its mitigatio...
Abstract Background Since the 1960s, environmental impact assessments (EIAs) and recently, social impact assessments (SIAs), have been conducted during the planning stages of... -

Abstract Background To demonstrate how the Observational Healthcare Data Science and Informatics (OHDSI) collaborative network and standardization can be utilized to scale-up... -
EpiMINE, a computational program for mining epigenomic data
Abstract Background In epigenetic research, both the increasing ease of high-throughput sequencing and a greater interest in genome-wide studies have resulted in an exponential... -
The impact of different inclusion decisions on the comprehensiveness and comp...
Abstract Background Overviews of reviews (overviews) compile information from multiple systematic reviews (SRs) to provide a single synthesis of relevant evidence for... -
Statin drugs to reduce breast cancer recurrence and mortality
Abstract Epidemiologic studies have, variably, shown the concomitant use of statin drugs to be beneficial to cancer outcomes. Statin drugs have been FDA approved for three... -
Sedentary behaviour in hospitalised older people: a scoping review protocol
Abstract Background Older adults spend up to 23 h daily sitting or lying while in hospital. Sedentary behaviour (SB) within a hospital setting is often associated with poor... -
A novel framework for horizontal and vertical data integration in cancer stud...
Abstract Background Recently high-throughput technologies have been massively used alongside clinical tests to study various types of cancer. Data generated in such large-scale... -
Health staff experiences with the implementation of early essential newborn c...
Abstract Background The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends early essential newborn care (EENC) – The First Embrace – as a simple lifesaving procedure for newborns. The... -
Assessing the external validity of algorithms to estimate EQ-5D-3L from the W...
Abstract Background The use of mapping algorithms have been suggested as a solution to predict health utilities when no preference-based measure is included in the study.... -
CellTag Indexing: genetic barcode-based sample multiplexing for single-cell g...
Abstract High-throughput single-cell assays increasingly require special consideration in experimental design, sample multiplexing, batch effect removal, and data... -
Comparing structural fingerprints using a literature-based similarity benchmark
Abstract Background The concept of molecular similarity is one of the central ideas in cheminformatics, despite the fact that it is ill-defined and rather difficult to assess... -
Quad-phased data mining modeling for dementia diagnosis
Abstract Background The number of people with dementia is increasing along with peopleâ s ageing trend worldwide. Therefore, there are various researches to improve a dementia... -
Risk analysis for confined space entries: critical analysis of four tools app...
