Cardiorespiratory Monitoring Data to Predict Respiratory Outcomes in Extremely Preterm Infants.

Immature control of breathing is associated with apnea, periodic breathing, intermittent hypoxemia, and bradycardia in extremely preterm infants. However, it is not clear if such events independently predict worse respiratory outcome. To determine if analysis of cardiorespiratory monitoring data can predict unfavorable respiratory outcomes at 40 weeks postmenstrual age (PMA) and other outcomes, such as bronchopulmonary dysplasia at 36 weeks PMA.

An experimentally validated approach to calculate the blood-brain barrier permeability of small molecules.

Drug development for the treatment of central nervous system (CNS) diseases is extremely challenging, in large part due to the difficulty in crossing the blood-brain barrier (BBB).

We show accurate prediction of solute permeabilities at physiological temperature using high-temperature unbiased atomic detail molecular dynamics simulations of spontaneous drug diffusion across BBB bilayers.

Predicting drug delivery efficiency into tumor tissues through molecular simulation of transport in complex vascular networks.

Efficient delivery of anticancer drugs into tumor tissues at maximally effective and minimally toxic concentrations is vital for therapeutic success.

This prevents accurate estimation of optimal dosage regimens for cancer therapy.
