The integration of electronic drug prescription and dispensation systems enables comprehensive analysis of medication adherence (MA). Patient-level and medical claims data for 8141 diabetic and hypertensive patients in Harare, Zimbabwe, were analysed. Non-adherence was defined as medication refills falling below 75 % of the intended 12 monthly claims, while adherence required at least 75 % of the refills. Classification employed multiple machine learning algorithms, including SVM, KNN, DT, Naïve Bayes, DNN, LR, and RF in Python 3.11.3. Significant variables for MA were identified through the Random Forest (RF) feature importance mechanism and the information gain technique. These included the annual quantity of medical supplies, annual claim amount, patient age, wellness program subscription, medical aid cover, contribution towards medical aid cover, comorbidity, diagnosis, hospital cover type, complications development, gender, and medical aid scheme. The total units of medical supplies dispensed annually emerged as the most significant predictor of MA. Considering the 8-feature subset, which consistently produced the most robust machine learning models, the classification accuracy of the ML classifiers ranged from 84.9 % to 88.2 %, while the AUC values varied between 0.857 and 0.934.

In this study, we propose an interpretable deep learning framework for accurate malaria diagnosis using blood smear images. Also, We evaluate and compare several baseline deep learning (DL) models (fundamentals), customized VGG-16 and VGG-19, as well as newer DL models such as Vision Transformer (ViT) and MobileNet, and, for the first time, a stacked long-short-term memory network (stacked-LSTM) with an attention mechanism for automatic detection of malaria from blood smear images.

Despite their solid performance, these models are often considered ”black boxes” due to their lack of transparency in the decision-making process, which poses significant challenges in medical applications and fields where human life is at stake.

The RAS G12X mutation is predominantly found in non-small cell lung cancer, including G12C and G12S variants, which are associated with a poor prognosis. Despite the approval of two inhibitors for the KRAS G12C mutation (sotorasib and adagrasib), the necessity persists due to the emergence of resistance to these inhibitors, which has become a substantial concern. This work involved the repurposing of FDA-approved drugs through <em>in silico</em> methods to identify compounds capable of covalently binding to KRAS G12C (PDB entry: 6OIM) and G12S (PDB entry: 7TLG). The computational studies involved virtual screening, induced fit, and covalent docking, and molecular dynamics simulations, and identified five promising candidates, the antibiotics; capreomycin, cefadroxil, and Cefdinir, the antifungal; natamycin, and the anti-inflammatory, cortisone. The hits exhibited binding affinities between −9.98 and −11.35 kcal/mol compared to −9.81 for sotorasib and were found to be covalent binders targeting KRAS G12C and G12S. The computational results were supported with <em>in vitro</em> evaluation on A549 malignant cells and HFF-1 non-cancerous cells. The antiproliferative efficacy of these drugs was evaluated by MTS tests, and their IC<sub>50</sub> values were determined in which natamycin, although non-selective, and cortisone showed the highest activity with IC<sub>50</sub> of 53.42 and 53.51 μg/mL, respectively, followed by cefadroxil (84.63 μg/mL). This study promisingly repurposed five drugs for KRAS mutant lung cancer, of which cefadroxil, and cortisone are particularly warranting further assessment either as a standalone or combination therapy while capreomycin is still an effective inhibitor for KRAS G12C mutant as evident from <em>in silico</em> and <em>in vitro</em> studies.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":13953,"journal":{"name":"Informatics in Medicine Unlocked","volume":"52 ","pages":"Article 101612"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143178788","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
