As more documents appear on the Internet, it becomes important to detect malware within the documents. Malware of non-executables might be more dangerous because people usually open them without worrying about inherent danger. Recently, deep learning models are used to analyze byte streams of the non-executables for malware detection.

There are still no definite treatment modalities for interstitial cystitis (IC). Meanwhile, stem cell therapy is rising as potential alternative for various chronic diseases. This study aimed to investigate the safety of the clinical-grade mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from human embryonic stem cells (hESCs), code name MR-MC-01 (SNU42-MMSCs), in IC patients.

End stage renal disease (ESRD) is the last stage of chronic kidney disease that requires dialysis or a kidney transplant to survive. Many studies reported a higher risk of mortality in ESRD patients compared with patients without ESRD. In this paper, we develop a model to predict postoperative complications, major cardiac event, for patients who underwent any type of surgery.

In this study, we propose a personalized glucose prediction model using deep learning for hospitalized patients who experience Type-2 diabetes. We aim for our model to assist the medical personnel who check the blood glucose and control the amount of insulin doses. Herein, we employed a deep learning algorithm, especially a recurrent neural network (RNN), that consists of a sequence processing layer and a classification layer for the glucose prediction.

Malware detection of non-executables has recently been drawing much attention because ordinary users are vulnerable to such malware. Hangul Word Processor (HWP) is software for editing non-executable text files and is widely used in South Korea. New malware for HWP files continues to appear because of the circumstances between South Korea and North Korea.

Hypotensive events in the initial stage of anesthesia can cause serious complications in the patients after surgery, which could be fatal. In this study, we intended to predict hypotension after tracheal intubation using machine learning and deep learning techniques after intubation one minute in advance. Meta learning models, such as random forest, extreme gradient boosting (Xgboost), and deep learning models, especially the convolutional neural network (CNN) model and the deep neural network (DNN), were trained to predict hypotension occurring between tracheal intubation and incision, using data from four minutes to one minute before tracheal intubation.

Arterial hypotension during the early phase of anesthesia can lead to adverse outcomes such as a prolonged postoperative stay or even death. Predicting hypotension during anesthesia induction is complicated by its diverse causes. We investigated the feasibility of developing a machine-learning model to predict postinduction hypotension.

Article Synopsis
  • - The Chromosome-Centric Human Proteome Project (C-HPP) aims to connect gaps between human genomic data and the proteome by addressing "missing" proteins, which number 2,579 out of nearly 20,000 predicted human proteins due to a lack of evidence.
  • - A systematic proteogenomic approach is used to explore the novel function of NHERF1, a protein previously misclassified as "missing" despite being recognized in other databases, highlighting lessons from inconsistent data annotations.
  • - Research revealed that NHERF1 is linked to trophoblast differentiation and motility in pregnancy, and its function was validated using a nematode model, suggesting its importance in embryonic development.

As the online service industry has continued to grow, illegal activities in the online world have drastically increased and become more diverse. Most illegal activities occur continuously because cyber assets, such as game items and cyber money in online games, can be monetized into real currency. The aim of this study is to detect game bots in a massively multiplayer online role playing game (MMORPG).

Rapid advances in modern computing and information technology have enabled millions of people to interact online via various social network and gaming services. The widespread adoption of such online services have made possible analysis of large-scale archival data containing detailed human interactions, presenting a very promising opportunity to understand the rich and complex human behavior. In collaboration with a leading global provider of Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Games (MMORPGs), here we present a network science-based analysis of the interplay between distinct types of user interaction networks in the virtual world.

Article Synopsis
  • A study in Oddar Meanchey Province, Cambodia, analyzed fecal samples from 1,287 individuals between May 2007 and November 2009, finding an overall intestinal helminth egg positivity rate of 23.9%.
  • The most common helminth detected was hookworms, affecting 21.6% of the population, with other species including echinostomes and Enterobius vermicularis present at lower rates.
  • For the first time in Cambodia, adult echinostomes were recovered and identified as Echinostoma ilocanum after treating two patients with praziquantel, marking a significant finding in the region's parasitology.
