AI Article Synopsis

  • The study analyzed the COVID-19 epidemic using a Markov model and examined clinical risk factors in 500 patients from X hospital during early 2020, categorizing them into general and acute critical groups.
  • Results indicated that patients typically required about 14 days for infection recovery, with significant differences in complications like age, gender, and pre-existing health conditions between the two groups.
  • The research concluded that the Markov model is useful for assessing the time course of COVID-19, highlighting the importance of prevention and treatment strategies to enhance patient outcomes and quality of life.

Article Abstract

Objective: It aimed to analyze the epidemic situation of new coronary pneumonia (COVID-19) based on the epidemiological Markov model, and to study the clinical risk factors of the patients based on the patient's cardinal data and clinical symptoms.

Methods: A total of 500 patients with COVID-19 diagnosed by nucleic acid testing in the X hospital from January 2020 to May 2020 were collected. According to the severity of the disease, they were classified into general group (200 cases) and acute critical group (300 cases). Markov model to predict the number of COVID-19 infections was constructed. Patient's general information, clinical characteristics, and prevention methods were analyzed.

Results: According to Markov model statistics, the developmental expected stay time of patients infected with COVID-19 was 14 days. 2. The two groups of patients had statistically considerable differences in complications such as gender, age, hypertension, coronary heart disease, shortness of breath, myocardial damage, and thrombocytopenia ( < 0.05). 3. Logistic multivariate regression analysis showed that the clinical risk factors for patients with COVID-19 mainly included the patient's gender, age, whether they were associated with hypertension, coronary heart disease, shortness of breath, myocardial damage, and thrombocytopenia.

Conclusion: Markov model can be utilized to judge the time course of the COVID-19 in various development states. In addition, the COVID-19 spread rapidly and is extremely harmful. Clinically, through active prevention, the treatment effect can be improved, the patient's respiratory function, and the quality of life can also be improved.

Systematic bias in malaria parasite relatedness estimation.

G3 (Bethesda)

Infectious Disease Epidemiology and Analytics G5 Unit, Institut Pasteur, Université Paris Cité, Paris 75015, France.

Genetic studies of Plasmodium parasites increasingly feature relatedness estimates. However, various aspects of malaria parasite relatedness estimation are not fully understood. For example, relatedness estimates based on whole-genome-sequence (WGS) data often exceed those based on sparser data types.

Power spectral analysis of voltage-gated channels in neurons.

Front Neuroinform

January 2025

Centre Borelli, Université Paris Cité, UMR 9010, CNRS, Paris, France.

This article develops a fundamental insight into the behavior of neuronal membranes, focusing on their responses to stimuli measured with power spectra in the frequency domain. It explores the use of linear and nonlinear (quadratic sinusoidal analysis) approaches to characterize neuronal function. It further delves into the random theory of internal noise of biological neurons and the use of stochastic Markov models to investigate these fluctuations.

In general, edge computing networks are based on a distributed computing environment and hence, present some difficulties to obtain an appropriate load balancing, especially under dynamic workload and limited resources. The conventional approaches of Load balancing like Round-Robin and Threshold-based load balancing fails in scalability and flexibility issues when applied to highly variable edge environments. To solve the problem of how to achieve steady-state load balance and provide dynamic adaption to edge networks, this paper proposes a new framework that using PCA and MDP.
