Microbiome research is now moving beyond the compositional analysis of microbial taxa in a sample. Increasing evidence from large human microbiome studies suggests that functional consequences changes intestinal may provide more power for studying their impact on inflammation and immune responses. Although 16S rRNA one most popular cost-effective method to profile compositions, marker-gene sequencing cannot direct information about genes are present genomes community members. Bioinformatic...

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a lifelong neurodevelopmental condition characterized by atypical brain growth. While advances in neuroimaging and openly sharing large-sample datasets such as the Brain Imaging Data Exchange (ABIDE) have improved understanding of ASD, most studies focus on adolescents adults, with early development-critical for diagnosis intervention-remaining underexplored. Existing research predominantly involves Western samples, offering limited insight generalizability...

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive, chronic, and neurodegenerative disorder that primarily diagnosed by clinical examinations magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). In this study, we proposed machine learning based radiomics method to predict PD. Fifty healthy controls (HC) along with 70 PD patients underwent resting-state (rs-fMRI). For all subjects, extracted five types of 6664 features, including mean amplitude low-frequency fluctuation (mALFF), regional homogeneity (mReHo), functional...

Covariance estimation and selection for high-dimensional multivariate datasets is a fundamental problem in modern statistics. Gaussian directed acyclic graph (DAG) models are popular class of used this purpose. DAG introduce sparsity the Cholesky factor inverse covariance matrix, pattern turn corresponds to specific conditional independence assumptions on underlying variables. A variety priors have been developed recent years Bayesian inference models, yet crucial convergence properties...

Background Brain tumor patients often associated with losses of the small-world configuration and neurocognitive functions before operations. However, few studies were performed on impairments frontal lobe low-grade gliomas (LGG) after resection using network features. Methodology/Principal Findings To detect differences in whole brain topology among LGG operation, a combined study assessment graph theoretical analysis fMRI data was performed. We collected resting-state 12 carefully selected...

The outbreak of COVID-19, caused by the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, has been declared a pandemic World Health Organization (WHO) in March, 2020 and rapidly spread to over 210 countries territories around world. By December 24, there are 77 M cumulative confirmed cases with more than 1.72 deaths worldwide. To mathematically describe dynamic COVID-19 pandemic, we propose time-dependent SEIR model considering incubation period. Furthermore, take immunity, reinfection, vaccination into account SEVIS...

Abstract Introduction The current diagnosis of Parkinson's disease (PD) comorbidity with depression (DPD) largely depends on clinical evaluation. However, the modality may tend to lack precision in detecting PD depression. A radiomic approach that combines functional connectivity and activity scores has potential achieve accurate differential between DPD. Methods In this study, we aimed employ extract large‐scale features for differentiating among DPD, no (NDPD), healthy controls (HC). We...

Depression is a prominent and highly prevalent nonmotor feature in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). The neural pathophysiologic mechanisms of PD depression (DPD) remain unclear. current diagnosis DPD largely depends on clinical evaluation.We proposed new family multinomial tensor regressions that leveraged whole-brain structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data to discriminate among 196 non-depressed (NDPD) patients, 84 200 healthy controls (HC), assess the special brain...

The choice of tuning parameters in Bayesian variable selection is a critical problem modern statistics. In particular, for linear regression with non-local priors, the scale parameter prior density an important which reflects dispersion around zero, and implicitly determines size coefficients that will be shrunk to zero. Current approaches treat as given, suggest choices based on coverage/asymptotic considerations. this paper, we consider fully approach introduced (Wu, 2016) pMOM appropriate...
