In-line prediction of viability and viable cell density through machine learning-based soft sensor modeling and an integrated systems approach: An industrially relevant PAT case study.

The biopharmaceutical industry is shifting toward employing digital analytical tools for improved understanding of systems biology data and production of quality products. The implementation of these technologies can streamline the manufacturing process by enabling faster responses, reducing manual measurements, and building continuous and automated capabilities. This study discusses the use of soft sensor models for prediction of viability and viable cell density (VCD) in CHO cell culture processes by using in-line optical density and permittivity sensors.

Racial/ethnic differences in post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 in children and adolescents in the United States.

Racial/ethnic differences are associated with the symptoms and conditions of post-acute sequelae SARS-CoV-2 infection (PASC) in adults. These differences may exist among children and warrant further exploration. We conducted a retrospective cohort study with difference-in-differences analyzes to assess these differences in children and adolescents under the age of 21.

Optimizing Prescribing for Individuals With Type 2 Diabetes and Chronic Kidney Disease Through the Development and Validation of Algorithms for Community Pharmacists.

Background: Diabetes is the leading cause of kidney disease and contributes to 38% of kidney failure requiring dialysis. A gap in detection and management of type 2 diabetes (T2D) in chronic kidney disease (CKD) exists in primary care. Community pharmacists are positioned to support those not able to access kidney care through traditional pathways.

Improving Glycemic Control via Heat Therapy in older adults at risk for Alzheimer's Disease (FIGHT-AD): a pilot study.

Impaired glycemic control increases the risk for type 2 diabetes (T2D) and Alzheimer's Disease (AD). Heat therapy (HT), via hot water immersion (HWI), has shown promise in improving shared mechanisms implicated in both T2D and AD, like blood glucose regulation, insulin sensitivity, and inflammation. The potential for HT to improve brain health in individuals at risk for AD has not been examined.

Oronasal mucosal melanoma is defined by two transcriptional subtypes in humans and dogs with implications for diagnosis and therapy.

Mucosal melanoma is a rare melanoma subtype associated with a poor prognosis and limited existing therapeutic interventions, in part due to a lack of actionable targets and translational animal models for preclinical trials. Comprehensive data on this tumour type are scarce, and existing data often overlooks the importance of the anatomical site of origin. We evaluated human and canine oronasal mucosal melanoma (OMM) to determine whether the common canine disease could inform the rare human equivalent.
