Abstract The Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO, https://hpo.jax.org) was launched in 2008 to provide a comprehensive logical standard describe and computationally analyze phenotypic abnormalities found human disease. HPO is now worldwide for phenotype exchange. has grown steadily since its inception due considerable contributions from clinical experts researchers diverse range of disciplines. Here, we present recent major extensions the neurology, nephrology, immunology, pulmonology, newborn...
A numerical solution is presented which can be used to analyze the complete range of frictionless contact problems found in rolling element bearings. three dimensional, linear elastic problem developed by combining Boussinesq force-displacement relationships for a half-space with modified flexibility method. In this manner stable system algebraic equations terms unknown surface pressures formed, no restrictions placed upon either symmetry or material connectivity. Several examples common but...
Advancements in therapies for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) have made diagnosis within the newborn period a high priority. We undertook consortia approach to advance DMD screening United States. This manuscript describes formation of Newborn Screening Consortium, development pilot protocols, data collection tools including parent surveys, and findings from first year two-year pilot. The design is population-based recruitment infants born New York State. Data were developed document...
Abstract Despite their effectiveness in modeling complex phenomena, the adoption of machine learning (ML) methods computational mechanics has been hindered by lack availability training datasets, limitations on accuracy out-of-sample predictions, and cost. This work presents a physics-informed ML approach network architecture that addresses these challenges context behavior materials with damage. The proposed methodology is novel general convolutional (PIGCN) framework features (1) fusion...
Presented herein is a method of solution for three dimensional counterformal contact problems involving layered solids. Based on the generalized Boussinesq half space, displacement and stress coefficients are formulated uniformly distributed load applied over rectangular area surface space. A precise analytical has been developed to find pressure, area, approach subsurface stresses arbitrary shapes. Numerical results have obtained indentation second order with solid case layer substrate...

Masks constructed of a variety materials are in widespread use due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and people exposed chemicals inherent masks through inhalation. This work aims survey commonly available mask provide an overview potential exposure. A total 19 were analyzed using nontargeted analysis two-dimensional gas chromatography (GCxGC)–mass spectrometric (MS) workflow. Traditionally, there has been lack GCxGC–MS automated high-throughput screening methods, resulting trade-offs with...

This work demonstrates high-throughput screening of personal care products to provide an overview potential exposure. Sixty-seven from five categories (body/fragrance oil, cleaning product, hair care, hand/body wash, lotion, sunscreen) were rapidly extracted and then analyzed using suspect by two-dimensional gas chromatography (GCxGC) high-resolution mass spectrometry (GCxGC-HRT). Initial peak finding integration performed commercial software, followed batch processing the machine learning...
With the rapid increase in publicly available sequencing data, healthcare professionals are tasked with understanding how genetic variation informs diagnosis and affects patient health outcomes. Understanding impact of a variant disease could be used to predict susceptibility/protection help build personalized medicine profile. In United States, over 3.8 million newborns screened for several rare diseases each year, follow-up testing screen-positive often involves identification variants....
