Understanding the efficacy of digital biomarkers in vision-based human motion analysis is essential, not only for interpreting the computer-aided exam results but also for advancing the next generation of digital health tool solutions. This study extensively analyzes digitized neurological examination (DNE) biomarkers for detecting and documenting exam features of Parkinson's disease (PD) and other neurological disorders (OD). Collected over 113 participants, DNE-113, a multi-test DNE database of finger tapping, finger to finger, forearm roll, stand-up and walk, and facial activation tests, covering a broader range of neurological abnormalities beyond PD is first proposed. Subsequently, DNE-113 is integrated into pyDNE - a convenient open-source toolbox, streamlining the creation and assessment of digital biomarkers. This toolbox empowers us to assess the quality of DNE biomarkers across diverse classification tasks. We showcase the discriminative potency of DNE biomarkers, successfully characterizing abnormal signals in neurological patients. Our findings highlight not only the potential use cases but also the persisting challenges in constructing digital biomarkers for computer-aided movement analysis on PD and OD patients.

Introduction: Neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPSs) are common in dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) but their neurobiological mechanisms are poorly understood.
Methods: NPSs and cognition were assessed annually in participants (DLB n = 222; Alzheimer's disease [AD] n = 125) from the European DLB (E-DLB) Consortium, and plasma phosphorylated tau-181 (p-tau181) and p-tau231 concentrations were measured at baseline.
Results: Hallucinations, delusions, and depression were more common in DLB than in AD and, in a subgroup with longitudinal follow-up, persistent hallucinations and NPSs were associated with lower p-tau181 and p-tau231 in DLB.

Heart rate response to physical activity is widely investigated in clinical and training practice, as it provides information on a person's physical state. For emerging digital phenotyping approaches, there is a need for individualized model estimation. In this study, we propose a zero-poles model and a data-driven evolutionary learning method for identification.

Background: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has developed as a leading public wellness challenge as a result of changes in dietary patterns. Unfortunately, there is still a lack of effective pharmacotherapy methods for NAFLD. Wang's empirical formula (WSF) has demonstrated considerable clinical efficacy in treating metabolic disorders for years.

Background/aim: Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is an aggressive hepatobiliary malignancy characterized by genomic heterogeneity. KRAS mutations play a significant role in influencing patient prognosis and guiding therapeutic decision-making. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and prognostic significance of KRAS mutations in CCA, asses the detection of KRAS G12/G13 mutations in plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA), and evaluate the prognostic value of KRAS G12/G13 mutant allele frequency (MAF) in cfDNA in relation to clinicopathological data and patient survival.

In 1924, the Dutch physiologist Willem Einthoven received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his discovery of the mechanism of the electrocardiogram (ECG). Anno 2024, the ECG is commonly used as a diagnostic tool in cardiology. In the paper 'Le Télécardiogramme', Einthoven described the first recording of the now most common cardiac arrhythmia: atrial fibrillation (AF).
