The use of computer-based tools has been becoming popular in the field of produce safety. Various algorithms have been applied to predict the population and presence of indicator microorganisms and pathogens in agricultural water sources. The purpose of this study is to improve the Salmonella prediction success of deep feed-forward neural network (DFNN) in agricultural surface waters with a determined correlation value based on selected features. Datasets were collected from six agricultural ponds in Central Florida. The most successful physicochemical and environmental features were selected by the gain ratio for the prediction of generic Escherichia coli population with machine learning algorithms (decision tree, random forest, support vector machine). Salmonella prediction success of DFNN was evaluated with dataset including selected environmental and physicochemical features combined with predicted E. coli populations with and without correlation value. The performance of correlation value was evaluated with all possible mathematical dataset combinations (nCr) of six ponds. The higher accuracy performances (%) were achieved through DFNN analyses with correlation value between 88.89 and 98.41 compared to values with no correlation value from 83.68 to 96.99 for all dataset combinations. The findings emphasize the success of determined correlation value for the prediction of Salmonella presence in agricultural surface waters.

Enteropathogens are major contributors to mortality and morbidity, particularly in settings with limited access to water, sanitation, and hygiene infrastructure. To assess transmission pathways associated with enteropathogen infection, we measured household environmental conditions and assayed 22 enteropathogens using TaqMan Array Cards in stool samples from 276 six-month-old children living in communities along a rural-urban gradient in Northern Ecuador. We utilized multivariable models, risk factor importance, and distance-based statistical methods to test factors associated with infection.

The influx of whole genome sequencing (WGS) data in the public health and clinical diagnostic sectors has created a need for data analysis methods and bioinformatics expertise, which can be a bottleneck for many laboratories. At Sciensano, the Belgian national public health institute, an intuitive and user-friendly bioinformatics tool portal was implemented using Galaxy, an open-source platform for data analysis and workflow creation. The Galaxy @Sciensano instance is available to both internal and external scientists and offers a wide range of tools provided by the community, complemented by over 50 custom tools and pipelines developed in-house.

Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder affecting women of reproductive age. It is characterized by symptoms such as hyperandrogenemia, oligo or anovulation and polycystic ovarian, significantly impacting quality of life. However, the practical implementation of machine learning (ML) in PCOS diagnosis is hindered by the limitations related to data size and algorithmic models.
