Background: Neurological disorders pose a significant health challenge, and their early detection is critical for effective treatment planning and prognosis. Traditional classification of neural disorders based on causes, symptoms, developmental stage, severity, and nervous system effects has limitations. Leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) for pattern recognition provides a potent solution to address these challenges.

Lower extremity diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) are a severe consequence of diabetes mellitus (DM). It has been estimated that people with diabetes have a 15% to 25% lifetime risk of acquiring DFUs which leads to the risk of lower limb amputations up to 85% due to poor diagnosis and treatment. Diabetic foot develops planter ulcers where thermography is used to detect the changes in the planter temperature.

A novel lncRNA, LINC00857, was indicated to upregulate in several types of cancer. In addition, LINC00857 was functionally related to the modulation of the cancer-linked behaviors, including invasion, migration, proliferation, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), cell cycle, and apoptosis.
