Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Analysis of Binary Patterns Pyramid and Gabor Filters for Machine Learning-Based Nail Disease DetectionJagadeeswari Boopalan, Maruthu Perumal SabtharishiNail diseases, including Onychomycosis and Psoriasis, are common conditions that pose diagnostic challenges due to subtle clinical presentations and reliance on invasive methods. This study investigates the effectiveness of Binary Patterns Pyramid Filter (BPPF) and Gabor Filter (GF) as feature extraction techniques for machine learning-based nail disease detection, addressing three categories: Healthy, Onychomycosis, and Psoriasis. Using a dataset of 1,466 … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 8 · 2 Oct 2025 · 2,183 accessesView PDFCite
Short CommunicationsOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Testing for Respiratory Tract Infections May Have Favorable Impact on Real-world Healthcare CostsAzia Evans, Vijay Singh, Pallavi Upadhyay et al.Molecular testing by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) has improved diagnostic performance to inform appropriate treatment. However, its impact on healthcare utilization and costs related to respiratory tract infections are yet to be studied in detail. The aim of this study is to evaluate the costs of healthcare utilization following traditional culture and molecular PCR diagnostic testing for respiratory tract infections. … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 20, Issue 3 · 15 Jan 2025 · 5,264 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCorrelation of Some Tumor Markers Between Serum and Saliva of Patients with Breast CancerHuthaifa Tarawneh, Omar AtroozBreast cancer, which affects 36% of all female oncological patients, is the most frequent cancer in the world among women. Since routine laboratory evaluation of serum can be stressful for patients, it is critical to comprehend the features and limitations of salivary test methods in order to achieve an accurate diagnosis of breast cancer. The purpose of the study is … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 1 · 12 Oct 2024 · 4,909 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrevalence of Diarrhea-Causing Pathogens in South Korea Analyzed Using Molecular Diagnostic MethodsYonghee Lee, Jae Kyung KimGastrointestinal inflammation remains a prevalent global health concern. Prompt and accurate diagnosis of the condition is required to mitigate health risks in immunocompromised individuals and alleviate the economic burden linked to treatment and pathogen isolation. Challenges posed by traditional culture tests, such as long detection time and inability to isolate low-abundance organisms, can be overcome using molecular diagnostic methods, which … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 2 · 25 Jul 2024 · 5,012 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Observational Study on the Prevalence of Sexually Transmitted Infections in Cheonan from 2017 to 2021Sun Jung Lee, Tae Su Jang, Jae Kyung KimAlthough the global incidence of sexually transmitted infections is increasing annually, there are few studies in Cheonan that have analyzed the frequency of infection by individual bacterial species by age since 2017. Therefore, in this observational study, we investigated trends in sexually transmitted infections in Cheonan, South Korea, since 2017. From January 2017 to November 2021, 3,297 specimens were obtained … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 2 · 17 Apr 2024 · 6,323 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCuckoo Search Optimized Random Forest for Breast Cancer PrognosisPrasad S. Sase, Debabrata Swain, Shailesh KumarBreast cancer remains a major global health concern due to its high mortality rate, particularly when diagnosis occurs at an advanced stage. Accurate and early differentiation between benign and malignant tumors is therefore critical for improving patient outcomes. Conventional diagnostic practices largely depend on manual assessment and clinical expertise, which may lead to subjective variability in decision-making. To overcome this … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2026 · 2,107 accessesView PDFCite

Research NotesOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of A Rapid IgM-IgG Combined Antibody Test for SARS-CoV-2 Infection: Single Italian Center StudyKatia Margiotti, Marina Cupellaro, Sabrina Emili et al.The need for timely establishment of diagnostic assays of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is demanded in laboratories worldwide. We evaluated the performance of a flow immunoassay which can detect IgM an IgG antibodies simultaneously against SARS-CoV-2 virus in human blood within 15 min. Among the 132 positive novel Coronavirus Disease 19 (COVID-19) cases, 126 tests were consistent … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 22 Jun 2020 · 7,613 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of the Utility of MPT64, Drug Susceptibility Testing and Tuberculosis/Nontuberculous Mycobacteria Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction for Tuberculosis Diagnosis and Efficiency Compared with Traditional CultureHo Keun Choi, Ga Yeon Kim, Tae Soung Kim, Jae Kyung KimDefining the molecular mechanisms underlying the dormant state of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) is essential for developing more effective treatments for tuberculosis (TB) infection. We investigated the positivity and resistance rates of TB tests on 6,174 samples referred to a single hospital. Of these, 342 cases (5.5%) were confirmed as positive by acid-fast bacilli staining, 243 cases (71.1%) were detected as … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 4 · 5 Dec 2024 · 4,211 accessesView PDFCite
