Protein Networks02:26

Protein Networks

4.6K
An organism can have thousands of different proteins, and these proteins must cooperate to ensure the health of an organism. Proteins bind to other proteins and form complexes to carry out their functions. Many proteins interact with multiple other proteins creating a complex network of protein interactions.
These interactions can be represented through maps depicting protein-protein interaction networks, represented as nodes and edges. Nodes are circles that are representative of a protein,...

Network Covalent Solids02:18

Network Covalent Solids

16.2K
Network covalent solids contain a three-dimensional network of covalently bonded atoms as found in the crystal structures of nonmetals like diamond, graphite, silicon, and some covalent compounds, such as silicon dioxide (sand) and silicon carbide (carborundum, the abrasive on sandpaper). Many minerals have networks of covalent bonds.
To break or to melt a covalent network solid, covalent bonds must be broken. Because covalent bonds are relatively strong, covalent network solids are typically...

Cardiac Output II: Effect of Stroke Volume on Cardiac Output

3.4K
Cardiac output (CO), the amount of blood the heart pumps per minute, is a parameter in cardiovascular physiology determined by stroke volume and heart rate. Stroke volume, the amount of blood pushed from one of the ventricles per heartbeat, is influenced by preload, afterload, and contractility.
Preload
Preload refers to the initial elongation of the cardiac myocytes before contraction and is related to the volume of blood filling the heart at the end of diastole, or end-diastolic volume. The...

Cardiac Output I:Effect of Heart Rate on Cardiac Output

2.7K
Cardiac Output
Cardiac output (CO) refers to the total amount of blood ejected by one of the ventricles in liters per minute (L/min). In a resting adult, CO ranges from 5 to 6 L/min, adjusting according to the body's metabolic requirements.
Effect of Heart Rate on Cardiac Output
Cardiac output adapts to metabolic demands during stress, physical activity, or illness. The autonomic nervous system regulates heart rate via the sinoatrial node. The parasympathetic nervous system decreases heart...

Neural Regulation

43.4K
Digestion begins with a cephalic phase that prepares the digestive system to receive food. When our brain processes visual or olfactory information about food, it triggers impulses in the cranial nerves innervating the salivary glands and stomach to prepare for food.

Area of Science:

  • Biostatistics
  • Machine Learning
  • Cardiovascular Disease Research

Background:

  • Risk prediction is crucial in survival analysis, with dynamic prediction incorporating longitudinal data.
  • Existing methods may introduce bias due to parametric assumptions or discrete survival function approximations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a novel deep neural network for nonparametric, dynamic risk prediction.
  • To introduce the Smooth Monotonic Output Layer (SMOL) to avoid discretization and parametric model assumptions.

Main Methods:

  • A deep neural network incorporating the novel Smooth Monotonic Output Layer (SMOL).
  • SMOL utilizes B-splines to construct monotonic, differentiable functions for direct estimation of survival and cumulative distribution functions.
  • Utilized data from the Cardiovascular Disease Lifetime Risk Pooling Project (LRPP).

Main Results:

  • The proposed deep learning approach achieved state-of-the-art accuracy.
  • Demonstrated superior performance in predicting individual-level risk for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.

Conclusions:

  • The novel deep learning model with SMOL offers an accurate, nonparametric approach to dynamic risk prediction.
  • This method effectively addresses limitations of existing survival analysis techniques for cardiovascular disease risk assessment.
