Knowing how to detect adenovirus proficiently and rapidly will help reinforce surveillance of adenovirus infections, detect epidemic situations in real-time, and understand the trend of virus epidemics, which will allow effective actions to be taken quickly. The rapid detection of antiviral antibodies or viral antigens in clinical samples can be achieved by molecular diagnostic techniques like PCR, Real-Time PCR, LAMP, mPCR-RLB, PCR-ELISA, Tem-PCR, Gene Chip, and so on. Some of the molecular diagnostic methods are relatively economical, exceedingly sensitive and explicit. There are several commercially accessible molecular diagnostic techniques that enable their use in clinical laboratories all over the world. In this review, the principles, characteristics, and applications of molecular biology surveillance methods commonly used in labs and clinics for the detection of human adenoviruses are examined and highlighted.","PeriodicalId":7529,"journal":{"name":"AIMS Biophysics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70185313","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}

Many models for different kinds of spreading have been proposed throughout the history of modelling, each suited for a specific scenario and parameters. On the other hand, models of information networks provide important tools for the analysis of the performance and reliability of such networks. We have previously presented a model for simulating the spreading of infectious disease throughout a social network and another one for simulating the connectivity of data traffic in an information network. We argue that these models are similar in that they produce equivalent results with appropriate parameters when run on the same network. We explain this by reasoning that the manners in which the models carry out their calculations, although devised from different assumptions, turn out to be equivalent. We also show empirical results of applying the models to calculate the spread of contagion and information connectivity on two complex networks suitable for the models. Based on the results, we calculate centrality metrics reflecting the outcome of the application, highlighting its important properties. We note that the centrality values obtained by running the epidemic model and the connectivity model turn out to be mutually equivalent, as predicted by their similar fashions of calculation. As the models were independently developed for their own applications, the equivalence in their calculation can not be explained by the models purposefully built similarly. Thus, not only are the two apparently completely separate areas of interest analysable with a single model but there appear to be inherent similarities in the mechanisms of epidemic spreading and determining network connectivity.","PeriodicalId":7529,"journal":{"name":"AIMS Biophysics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70185437","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}

In this study, we focus on examining the dynamics of a fractional-order model involving three interconnected lakes, utilizing the Caputo differential operator. The aim is to investigate the issue of lake pollution by analyzing a system of linear equations that represent the interconnecting waterways. To numerically solve the model, we employ two methods: The Laplace transform with the Adomian decomposition method (LADM) and the Homotopy perturbation method (HPM). We compare the obtained numerical solutions from both methods and present the results. The study encompasses three variations of the model: the periodic input model, the exponentially decaying input model, and the linear input model. MATLAB is employed to conduct numerical simulations for the proposed scheme, considering various fractional orders. The numerical results are further supported by informative graphical illustrations. Through simulation, we validate the suitability of the proposed model for addressing the issue at hand. The outcomes of this research contribute to the understanding and management of water pollution, aiding policymakers and researchers in formulating effective strategies for maintaining water quality and protecting our environment.","PeriodicalId":7529,"journal":{"name":"AIMS Biophysics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70185518","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}

Despite the rapidly accumulating data about the pathophysiology and the treatment, new insights are required to improve the overall clinical outcome of patients with cardiac arrhythmias. Three major arrhythmogenic processes can contribute to the pathogenesis of cardiac arrhythmias; 1) enhanced automaticity, 2) afterdepolarization-triggered activity and 3) reentry circuits. The mathematical model of the quantum tunneling of ions is used to investigate these mechanisms from a quantum mechanical perspective. The mathematical model focuses on applying the principle of quantum tunneling to sodium and potassium ions. This implies that these ions have a non-zero probability of passing through the gate, which has an energy that is higher than the kinetic energy of ions. Our mathematical findings indicate that, under pathological conditions, which affect ion channels, the quantum tunneling of sodium and potassium ions is augmented. This augmentation creates a state of hyperexcitability that can explain the enhanced automaticity, after depolarizations that are associated with triggered activity and a reentry circuit. Our mathematical findings stipulate that the augmented and thermally assisted quantum tunneling of sodium and potassium ions can depolarize the membrane potential and trigger spontaneous action potentials, which may explain the automaticity and afterdepolarization. Furthermore, the quantum tunneling of potassium ions during an action potential can provide a new insight regarding the formation of a reentry circuit. Introducing these quantum mechanical aspects may improve our understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms of cardiac arrhythmias and, thus, contribute to finding more effective anti-arrhythmic drugs.</p> </abstract>","PeriodicalId":7529,"journal":{"name":"AIMS Biophysics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135800871","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}

The computation part basically predicts the tendency towards mortality due to breast cancer (BC) by using several classification methods, i.e., Logistic Regression (LR), Random Forest (RF), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) and Decision Tree (DT), and compared the models' performances. We proceed with the RF method since it provides better results than any other underlying models based on accuracy. We have also demonstrated some traditional and competing risk models, illustrated the models with real data analysis, depicted their curves' natures and also compared their fits using prediction error curves and the concordance index. Furthermore, two different survival splitting rules are used by using separate Random Survival Forest (RSF) methods and also constructing the ranking of risk factors due to breast cancer. The results show that high-level grade and diameter are the most important predictors for mortality progression in the presence of competing events of death, and lymph nodes, age and angiography are other vital criteria for this purpose. We have also implemented RSF backward selection criteria, which enables top gene selection related to mortality progression due to breast cancer. This method identifies c-MYB, CDCA7, NUSAP1, BIRC5, ANGPTL4, JAG1, IL6ST, and remaining genes that are mainly responsible for mortality progression due to breast cancer.

These equations contain a lot of DNA dynamic parameters, including the moments of inertia of nitrous bases, distances between base pairs, distances from the centers of mass of bases to sugar-phosphate chains, rigidity of the sugar-phosphate backbone, and interactions between bases within pairs. However, estimates of the parameter values are often difficult, and it is not convenient or simple to operate with such multi-parameter systems. One of the ways to reduce the number of the DNA dynamic parameters is to transform the model equations to a dimensionless form.
