Exploring the efficacy of alga for cadmium and copper biosorption: an integrated experimental and computational study.

Pollution by heavy metals is a major global issue. The biosorptive removal of Cd and Cu by () was evaluated in this work. FTIR and XRD analysis were performed to determine the characteristics of the biosorbent.

A comprehensive analysis of diabetic patient data before and during the COVID-19 pandemic - Lessons from the MÉRY diabetes database (MDD).

Aims: Our study examined changes in average blood glucose levels (ABG), measurement frequency (MF), and data uploading (DU) before and during the COVID-19 pandemic in 882-day spans, which were divided into further 20-week intervals to highlight the pandemic's impact.

Methods: T-Tests assessed the statistical significance of blood glucose data from 26,655/20,936 patients and 19.5/16.

How to evaluate over 60 million blood glucose data - The design of the MÉRY Diabetes Database.

Aims: The aim of the article is to describe the method for creating a close to ideal diabetes database. The MÉRY Diabetes Database (MDD) consists of a large quantity of reliable, well-maintained, precise and up-to-date data suited for clinical research with the intention to improve diabetes care in terms of maintaining targeted blood glucose levels, avoiding hypoglycemic episodes and complications and improving patient compliance and quality of life.

Methods: Based on the analysis of the databases found in the literature and the experience of our research team, nine important characteristics were identified as critical to an ideal diabetes database.

Deep efficient-nets with transfer learning assisted detection of COVID-19 using chest X-ray radiology imaging.

Corona Virus (COVID-19) could be considered as one of the most devastating pandemics of the twenty-first century. The effective and the rapid screening of infected patients could reduce the mortality and even the contagion rate. Chest X-ray radiology could be designed as one of the effective screening techniques for COVID-19 exploration.

eHealth, teledentistry and health workforce challenges: results of a pilot project.

Background: In the twenty-first century, health systems have to cope with the challenges posed by their rapidly changing environment. Among these changes, the emergence of digital health solutions is an opportunity to make health systems better, but also a compelling force to change. Community dentistry is one area of health care, where the rapid technological development has the potential for substantial performance improvement benefitting dental patients in terms of access to care and conveniance.
