Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdvancing Stroke Lesion Segmentation With U-Net Variants: Classical, Transfer Learning, and MRI Sequence-Specific Customized ApproachesSonia Flora Panesar, Amit P. GanatraIschemic stroke, caused by restricted cerebral blood flow, is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Accurate segmentation of stroke lesions in MRI is essential for timely diagnosis but remains labor-intensive when done manually. This study presents a comparative evaluation of three U-Net variants for automated ischemic stroke lesion segmentation using the ISLES 2022 dataset: (1) Classical U-Net with … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 27 Feb 2026 · 1,791 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Metaheuristic-Optimized Feature Selection for Early-Stage Diabetes Prediction With SHAP-Guided Insight into Influential AttributesEsmay Azam Rochy, Jannatul Ferdaus, Uzzal Biswas et al.Diabetes is a metabolic disorder that causes elevated blood glucose. This long-term health condition can lead to cardiovascular diseases, stroke, kidney failure, visual impairment, neuropathy, and even death in critical cases. So, a Computer-Aided Diagnostic (CAD) system is necessary to diagnose diabetes automatically. A clinician can utilize a machine learning-based CAD system that automatically diagnoses many people. This paper will … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 24 Feb 2026 · 1,736 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDihydroartemisinin Attenuates HBV-Induced Proliferation and Migration in LO2 cells via EMT Pathway ModulationYingde Nong, Caifang Ma, Wei Huang et al.Dihydroartemisinin (DHA), a derivative of artemisinin, possesses well-documented anti-inflammatory properties. This study investigated the inhibitory effects of DHA on hepatitis B virus (HBV)-induced cellular alterations in LO2 cells and elucidated underlying molecular mechanisms. Serum interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels were measured in HBV patients and analyzed for correlations with HBsAg, anti-HBs, and HBeAg. In vitro, LO2 cells were infected with clinical HBV … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 8 Jan 2026 · 2,071 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProcalcitonin and Clinical Factors Associated with Severe Dengue Infection in Hospitalized Adults in MalaysiaHuzairi Sani, Nada Syazana, Zahir Izuan et al.Dengue Fever (DF) is the commonest mosquito-borne viral infection that results in hospitalisation amongst patients in Malaysia. The cornerstone of managing dengue virus infection is the prediction hence prevention of severe DF from developing. Warning signs proposed by WHO as clinical predictors of severe DF are insensitive. Procalcitonin (PCT) has been shown to increase in bacterial infections and is useful … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 3 Dec 2019 · 7,360 accessesView PDFCite
