Exposure of cells to xenobiotic human-made products can lead to genotoxicity and cause DNA damage. It is an urgent need to quickly identify the chemicals that cause DNA damage, and their toxicity should be predicted. In this study, recursive partitioning (RP), binary logistic regression, and one machine learning approach, namely, random forest (RF) classifier, were used to predict the active and inactive compounds of a total 5036 data based on the assay conducted by a β-lactamase reporter gene under control of the p53 response element (p53RE) from Tox21 library. Results show that the binary logistic regression model with a threshold of 0.5 has a high accuracy rate (83%) to distinguish active and inactive compounds. The RF classifier method has satisfactory results, with an accuracy rate (84.38%) approximately higher than that of binary logistic regression. The models established can identify compounds that induce DNA damage and activate p53, and provide a scientific basis for the risk assessment of organic chemicals in the environment.

Differences in mortality risk by levels of physical activity among persons with disabilities in South Korea.
Open Med (Wars)
December 2024
Department of Preventive Medicine, School of Medicine, Kyung Hee University, Seoul, 02447, South Korea.
Aim: The World Health Organization's recommendation of at least 150 min of physical activity per week is important for increasing the lifespan of persons with disabilities (PWDs).
Methods: Conduct a survival analysis to examine the relationship between physical activity and mortality using cohort data from the National Health Insurance Service in South Korea from 2017 to 2021. The survival analysis included 259,146 PWDs, with a maximum follow-up of 57 months, and adjustments for covariates, including physical activity level, comorbidities, smoking, and alcohol consumption.

Objective: To examine the prevalence of awareness of PA (physical activity) benefits among those with mental disorders and explore how this is related to actual PA levels in this population.
Methods: We queried data from the Health Information National Trends Survey 2019. A sample of 1,139 adults with self-reported depression and anxiety (61% female; mean age of 52.

Objectives: This study aimed to (i) compare children's lifestyle by urbanization level and (ii) examine the association between children's body mass index (BMI) and the risk of having unhealthy sleep (American Academy of Pediatrics).
Methods: Eight thousand one hundred fifty-nine children (4124 females) aged 6-9 years were observed and classified as urban or nonurban. Height and weight were measured, and the BMI was calculated.
EEG-based functional and effective connectivity patterns during emotional episodes using graph theoretical analysis.

Understanding the neural mechanisms underlying emotional processing is critical for advancing neuroscience and mental health interventions. This study examined these mechanisms by analyzing EEG connectivity patterns across different brain regions while participants evoked various emotions. After applying independent component analysis (ICA) to eliminate non-cortical activity, we assessed frequency-specific connectivity patterns using coherence, Granger causality, and graph theoretical measures to evaluate both functional and effective connectivity.

Introduction: ActiGraph accelerometers are used extensively to objectively assess physical activity, sedentary behavior, and sleep. Here, we present an objective validation of five generations of ActiGraph sensors to characterize potential differences in output arising from changes to hardware or firmware.
Methods: An orbital shaker generated accelerations from 0 to 3700 milli-g in a randomized order to test the wGT3X-BT, GT9X, CentrePoint Insight Watch (CPIW) 1.
