The continued proliferation of scars and anxiety engender considerable difficulties for patients. A burn scar contracture is like a burned rubber band; the skin is never restored to its original flexibility. Wearing pressure garments (PGs) is uncomfortable and challenging for patients, but constant adherence is necessary. To improve adherence, precise knowledge about the advantages and disadvantages of PG therapy (PGT) is necessary. Methods: This review examined experimental studies that have applied PGT on patients with varicose veins and burns, as well as healthy human controls. The participants answered questionnaires to determine the best or \"ideal\" pressure. All scars were treated under a scar management program and followed up by the treating hospital and scanned by ultrasound. Scars were assessed using the Tissue Ultrasound Palpation System (TUPS), as well as the Vancouver Scar Scale (VSS) for rating scar thickness, pliability, pigmentation, and vascularity. Scar thickness and color were objectively measured using the Pliance X system and Laser Doppler Imaging (LDI). Results: In general, the application of 15-25 mmHg pressure is most commonly used in clinical practice. Minor and moderate burn patients could wear PGs in the very beginning of the recovery process. According to guidelines, closed scars should always be reevaluated 6 months after the burn to determine whether additional scar management interventions are required or whether preventive therapy can be terminated.","PeriodicalId":253305,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2017 4th International Conference on Biomedical and Bioinformatics Engineering","volume":"76 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121179888","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

TB infection, which is caused by bacteria that belong to genus Mycobacterium, can significantly affect normal functions of lungs and other body parts such as brain and spine. Although tuberculosis patients have been treated with medicines, it took much time to detect visible effects. To further enhance the vaccines and treatment of TB, people should conduct more comprehensive research about the TB infection. Therefore, in this research, we aim to analyze genomes of three bacteria in Mycobacterium genus: Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Mycobacterium bovis, and Mycobacterium africanum. We adopted mainly two algorithms, apriori and decision tree, in order to proceed analysis. Before we undertook an experiment, we established a hypothesis: M. tuberculosis and M. bovis would exhibit a stronger correlation because they are the most common cause of tuberculosis for a long time. By analyzing their DNA sequences and amino acid frequency, we examined relationships between those three bacteria, especially similarities and differences. Furthermore, we tried to prove the hypothesis. We expect that our research will give a chance to improve potent vaccines and medicines by adopting these relationships we found in our research.","PeriodicalId":253305,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2017 4th International Conference on Biomedical and Bioinformatics Engineering","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121542668","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

PD affects 2-3% of the population over the age of 65 years. Since the aging population rate is increasing at a faster rate all over the world, so many advanced techniques such as artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms have been used to detect the progression of disease at early stage in short time. Few past research has been made to classify the PD from the healthy older peoples. They have used linear classification techniques for classification as well as linear dimensionality algorithm for feature selection. In this paper an attempt has been made to classify the PD group from the healthy control group by using nonlinear based classifier with decision tree and also nonlinear feature selection algorithm called Recursive Feature Elimination for selection of features. Finally, a performance comparison has been made between the original set of features as well as the reduced features. Our result does not able to find any significance difference in the performance metrics of the two feature sets, but achieved the classification accuracies ranging from 81.7% to 85.31%.","PeriodicalId":253305,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2017 4th International Conference on Biomedical and Bioinformatics Engineering","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131213363","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

General finger-vein authentication methods consist of two parts, feature extraction and feature matching. Finger-vein images captured by infrared device are subject to uncertainties caused by various temperature, irregular illumination and finger posture deformation. Uncertainties cause severe artifacts, which make the extracted features unsatisfying and hard to match. We try to alleviate the problem during matching by modeling the extracted features as Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM). In the proposed method, given two feature maps of finger-vein, we first model inputs as GMM using the normal distribution transform, and then minimize the distance between two GMMs based on gradient descent, lastly we output the possibility that two feature maps belong to one person. To show its superiority, we replace conventional feature matching schemes with proposed method and test the performance gain based on two kinds of finger-vein features: finger-vein trajectory and finger-vein skeleton. Experimental results on the RATE dataset show that the proposed method is superior to the conventional methods in precision.","PeriodicalId":253305,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2017 4th International Conference on Biomedical and Bioinformatics Engineering","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131441086","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) plays an important role in cancer progression, including lung cancer. Therefore, it would be interesting to determine key modulators that can suppress VEGF production. This study aimed to identify miRNAs regulating VEGF using systematic reviews and bioinformatics tools. We further validated miRNA expression and VEGF level using qRT-PCR and ELISA, respectively. A total 17 studies were selected using systematic review. 97 miRNAs were found to be up-regulated in serum of NSCLC compared to controls. miR-145 was selected to further validate in clinical samples. Serum miR-145 expression in NSCLC (10.77±3.40) was lower than patient with other lung diseases (25.10±7.90) with p-value of 0.019. The VEGF level in serum of NSCLC was significantly higher than other lung diseases and healthy persons with p-value of 0.003 and 0.002, respectively. However, a weak negative correlation of miR-145 and VEGF in serum of NSCLC was observed without significant difference. In conclusion, the expression of miR-145 and VEGF in NSCLC patients may be involved with lung tumorigenesis; however, the VEGF is not regulated by miR-145 in lung cancer.","PeriodicalId":253305,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2017 4th International Conference on Biomedical and Bioinformatics Engineering","volume":"45 1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133673263","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
