Genetic variations accumulating within populations over generations give rise to biological evolution. Evolutionary changes can result in the formation of novel varieties and entire new species. These changes are responsible for the diverse forms of life inhabiting the planet. The evidence for evolution suggests that all living organisms descended from common ancestors.

Here, we present a protocol for the behavioral analysis of a project-based learning methodology for health sciences students (20-56 years old). The protocol facilitates the comparison of the participants' performance in e-Learning versus blended-Learning (b-Learning) through a monitoring tool. The results are analyzed using Educational Data Mining and qualitative...

This article describes RUGGED (Retrieval Under Graph-Guided Explainable disease Distinction), which integrates Large Language Model (LLM) inference with Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). It draws evidence from expert-curated biomedical knowledge bases and peer-reviewed biomedical publications to synthesize new knowledge from up-to-date information, identify explainable and actionable predictions, and pinpoint promising directions for hypothesis-driven...

This protocol outlines a chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) model for depression based on Mongolian medical theory, along with methods for validating behavioral...

Advancements in molecular biology have revolutionized the identification and characterization of bacteria, with multiple methods leveraging DNA sequencing for enhanced precision. As sequencing technologies improve and costs decline, these approaches are increasingly used in clinical, environmental, and evolutionary studies.Multilocus Sequence Typing (MLST) examines several housekeeping genes, essential chromosomal genes encoding cellular functions, to distinguish strains. Approximately...

The present study employed U-Net and other deep learning algorithms to segment a tongue image and compared the segmentation results to investigate the objectification of tongue...
