Machine Learning (ML), among other things, facilitates Text Classification, the task of assigning classes to textual items. Classification performance in ML has been significantly improved due to recent developments, including the rise of Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs), Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), Gated Recurrent Units (GRUs), and Transformer Models. Internal memory states with dynamic temporal behavior can be found in these kinds of cells.

We present a device disguised as a mouse pad and designed to measure mouse-click-pressure and click-press-to-release-time responses by unaware, as regards to the physiological assessment, participants. The aim of the current technology, in the current studies, was to provide a physiological assessment of confidence and task difficulty.

Data on lipegfilgrastim use between September 2014 and April 2017 were abstracted from medical records by two independent medical abstractors. Lipegfilgrastim indication was categorized either as on-label or as one of four types of off-label (I-IV) according to pre-defined criteria.

The HELAS study (Heart failure Long-term Antithrombotic Study) is a multicentre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to evaluate antithrombotic treatment in patients with CHF.
Methods: 197HF patients (EF <35%) were enrolled.
We have tested the effect of thrombin on endothelial cell tube formation in vitro and angiogenesis in vivo. Thrombin induces the differentiation of endothelial cells into capillary structures in a dose-dependent fashion (0.1-0.
