The detection of Estrogen Receptor (ER), Progesterone Receptor (PR), and Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2) is important for the stratification of breast cancer and the selection of therapeutic modalities. This study aimed to determine the quantitative expression of ER, PR and HER-2 using Immunohistochemistry and their correlation with quantitative baseline Ct values measured using Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). This study also assessed the use of fresh breast tissue biopsies preserved in RNAlater solution in the quantitative detection of these receptors using PCR technique.

MiRNAs and lncRNAs are two essential noncoding RNAs. Predicting associations between noncoding RNAs and diseases can significantly improve the accuracy of early diagnosis.With the continuous breakthroughs in artificial intelligence, researchers increasingly use deep learning methods to predict associations.

Background: The study objective was to develop and validate a clinical decision support system (CDSS) to guide clinicians through the diagnostic evaluation of hospitalized individuals with suspected pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) in low-prevalence settings.
Methods: The "TBorNotTB" CDSS was developed using a modified Delphi method. The CDSS assigns points based on epidemiologic risk factors, TB history, symptoms, chest imaging, and sputum/bronchoscopy results.

Mitigating the injury and severity of road traffic accidents has become a crucial objective in global road safety efforts. Major road traffic accidents (MRTAs) pose significant challenges due to their high hazard and severe consequences. Despite their widespread impact, the complex causation mechanisms behind MRTAs have not been thoroughly and systematically investigated, which hinders the development of effective control strategies and policies.

Environmental factors lead mainly to the uncertainty of gross primary productivity estimation in most light use efficiency (LUE, ε) models since the simple physical formulas are inadequate to fully express the overall constraint of diverse environmental factors on the maximum ε (ε). In contrast, machine learning has the natural potential to detect intricate patterns and relationships among various environmental variables. Here, we presented a hybrid model (TL-CRF) that utilizes the random forest (RF) technique to incorporate various ecological stress factors into the two-leaf LUE (TL-LUE) model, meanwhile, seasonal differences in the clumping index (CI) on a global scale are considered to adjust seasonal patterns of canopy structure.
