Constructing training set using distance between learnt graphical models of time series data on patient physiology, to predict disease scores.

Interventional endeavours in medicine include prediction of a score that parametrises a new subject's susceptibility to a given disease, at the pre-onset stage. Here, for the first time, we provide reliable learning of such a score in the context of the potentially-terminal disease VOD, that often arises after bone marrow transplants. Indeed, the probability of surviving VOD, is correlated with early intervention.

Amyloidosis: The Newer Discovered ALECT2 Associated with der7q add(7).

Amyloidosis is characterized by pathological deposition of abnormal protein aggregates in various tissues, AL protein being the commonest. ALECT 2 is the newest protein described, having a predisposition to affect the kidneys, sometimes the liver and rarely other organs. We present a case of renal amyloid ALECT 2 due to leucocyte cell derived chemotaxin 2, a novel amyloidogenic protein.
