Summary: The accuracy of any analytical method is highly dependent on the selection of an appropriate calibration model. Here, we present CCWeights, an R package for automated assessment and selection of weighting factors for accurate quantification using linear calibration curve. Additionally, CCWeights includes a web application that allows users to analyze their data using an interactive graphical user interface, without any programming requirements. The workflow and features of CCWeights are illustrated by the analyses of two datasets acquired by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). The resulting quantification table can be directly utilized for further model assessment and subsequent data analysis.

Availability And Implementation: CCWeights is publicly available on CRAN repository (https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/CCWeights), with source code available on GitHub (https://github.com/YonghuiDong/CCWeights) under a GPL-3 license. The web application can be run locally from R console using a simple command "runGui()". Alternatively, the web application can be freely accessed for direct online use at https://bcdd.shinyapps.io/CCWeights/.

Supplementary Information: Supplementary data are available at online.

Background: Heart failure (HF) is a chronic, progressive condition where the heart cannot pump enough blood to meet the body's needs. In addition to the daily challenges that HF poses, acute exacerbations can lead to costly hospitalizations and increased mortality. High health care costs and the burden of HF have led to the emerging application of new technologies to support people living with HF to stay well while living in the community.

Rehabilomics Strategies Enabled by Cloud-Based Rehabilitation: Scoping Review.

J Med Internet Res

January 2025

Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Korea University Anam Hospital, Seoul, Republic of Korea.

Background: Rehabilomics, or the integration of rehabilitation with genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, and other "-omics" fields, aims to promote personalized approaches to rehabilitation care. Cloud-based rehabilitation offers streamlined patient data management and sharing and could potentially play a significant role in advancing rehabilomics research. This study explored the current status and potential benefits of implementing rehabilomics strategies through cloud-based rehabilitation.

Objectives: To facilitate the stratification of patients with osteoarthritis (OA) for new treatment development and clinical trial recruitment, we created an automated machine learning (autoML) tool predicting the rapid progression of knee OA over a 2-year period.

Methods: We developed autoML models integrating clinical, biochemical, X-ray and MRI data. Using two data sets within the OA Initiative-the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health OA Biomarker Consortium for training and hold-out validation, and the Pivotal Osteoarthritis Initiative MRI Analyses study for external validation-we employed two distinct definitions of clinical outcomes: Multiclass (categorising OA progression into pain and/or radiographic) and binary.
