Background: Adolescent alcohol and drug consumption are important public health problems in the Chilean young population.
Aim: The purpose of this study was to examine the potential ofa data mining approach in scaffolding policy making, using the particular case of differential risks of harmful alcohol consumption in adolescent students.
Material And Methods: Index and control groups were composed by 7918 and 7138 participants respectively (drawn from a CONACE survey 2009), aged 16 ± 2 years, 52% mole. Heavy drinking at last month was the independent variable. As dependent variables parenting style, peer group influence, age and sex were used. For data analysis, a data mining approach was applied (CART, SPSS version 15).
Results: The peer group influence was the main discriminant variable in males and the total sample, proving to be the only relevant variable in the case of women. The results suggest how a data mining approach may be useful in order to develop a hard data scaffolding for making and implementing policies in general and policies addressing adolescent alcohol consumption in particular.

Background And Aims: Alcoholic liver disease (ALD) is the leading cause of death among alcohol-related diseases, yet its pathogenesis remains incompletely understood. This article employs data mining methods to conduct an indepth study of articles on ALD published in the past three decades, aiming to elucidate the pathogenesis of ALD.
Methods: Firstly, articles related to the pathogenesis of ALD were retrieved from the Web of Science (WOS) database.

During the Covid-19 pandemic, the widespread use of social media platforms has facilitated the dissemination of information, fake news, and propaganda, serving as a vital source of self-reported symptoms related to Covid-19. Existing graph-based models, such as Graph Neural Networks (GNNs), have achieved notable success in Natural Language Processing (NLP). However, utilizing GNN-based models for propaganda detection remains challenging because of the challenges related to mining distinct word interactions and storing nonconsecutive and broad contextual data.

Citronellol (CT) is a naturally occurring lipophilic monoterpenoid which has shown anticancer effects in numerous cancerous cell lines. This study was, therefore, designed to examine CT's potential as an anticancer agent against glioblastoma (GBM). Network pharmacology analysis was employed to identify potential anticancer targets of CT.

Background: Gilteritinib and midostaurin are FLT3 inhibitors that have made significant progress in the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia. However, their real-world safety profile in a large sample population is incomplete.
Objectives: We aimed to provide a pharmacovigilance study of the adverse events (AEs) associated with gilteritinib and midostaurin through the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database.

Dynamic functional connectivity (DFC) has shown promise in the diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). However, extracting highly discriminative information from the complex DFC matrix remains a challenging task. In this paper, we propose an ASD classification framework PSA-FCN which is based on time-aligned DFC and Prob-Sparse Self-Attention to address this problem.
