Usefulness of web search queries for early detection of diseases in infants
This study evaluates the usefulness of web searches in predicting diseases in order to encourage guardians to consult a doctor promptly if their children are ill. We collected six months of search queries from Yahoo! JAPAN Search between October 2016 and March 2017. Using a machine learning model, we investigated the accuracy of the search query's ability to predict the diagnosis of biliary atresia and hypertrophic pyloric stenosis. Both diseases were modeled with an accuracy of approximately 80%, and symptoms related to the disease were significant features in the model. These findings suggest the possibility of detecting...

The Prognostic and Clinical Value of CD44 in Colorectal Cancer: A Meta-Analysis
Conclusions: This meta-analysis demonstrated that CD44 overexpression might be an unfavorable prognostic factor for CRC patients and could be used to predict poor differentiation, lymph node metastasis and distant metastasis. Introduction Although therapies for colorectal cancer (CRC) has improved in recent years, colorectal cancer is still the third most common cause of cancer related death worldwide (1). Metastasis are observed in 25% of patients at initial diagnosis and approximately 50% of patients will develop metastasis (2). Presently, the outcome prediction and the therapy schedule determination of CRC patie...

Finding a needle in a haystack - in silico search for environmental traces of Candida auris
Jpn J Infect Dis. 2022 Apr 28. doi: 10.7883/yoken.JJID.2022.068. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCandida auris, first described from an ear infection in Japan, is the most talked about multidrug resistant emerging pathogenic fungal species. Its environmental niche remained a mystery until its first isolation from wetlands of the Andaman Islands, India in 2020. We screened a subset of the world's largest sequence repository, the Sequence Read Archive at NCBI using a DNA metabarcoding approach, based on either the ITS1 or ITS2 region of the official primary fungal DNA barcode, to identify potential environmental sources of C. ...
