Diagnostic Power of MicroRNAs in Melanoma: Integrating Machine Learning for Enhanced Accuracy and Pathway Analysis.

This study identifies microRNAs (miRNAs) with significant discriminatory power in distinguishing melanoma from nevus, notably hsa-miR-26a and hsa-miR-211, which have exhibited diagnostic potential with accuracy of 81% and 78% respectively. To enhance diagnostic accuracy, we integrated miRNAs into various machine-learning (ML) models. Incorporating miRNAs with AUC scores above 0.

Epigenetics modification among vitrified oocytes and early embryos derived from them: a narrative review.

Vitrification has important application in assisted reproductive technology (ART) and this technique has been widely used in the cryopreservation of oocytes and embryos. However, due to susceptibility of epigenetic modifications to environmental changes induced by cryopreservation procedures, there are concerns about the potential epigenetic consequences of oocyte and embryo vitrification. This review comprehensively summarized the effect of cryopreservation-especially the vitrification method in ART-on oocytes and embryos.
