Missing values exist widely in mass-spectrometry (MS) based metabolomics data. Various methods have been applied for handling missing values, but the selection can significantly affect following data analyses. Typically, there are three types of not at random (MNAR), (MAR), and completely (MCAR). Our study comprehensively compared eight imputation (zero, half minimum (HM), mean, median, forest (RF), singular value decomposition (SVD), k-nearest neighbors (kNN), quantile regression...
Left-censored missing values commonly exist in targeted metabolomics datasets and can be considered as not at random (MNAR). Improper data processing procedures for will cause adverse impacts on subsequent statistical analyses. However, few imputation methods have been developed applied to the situation of MNAR field metabolomics. Thus, a practical left-censored value method is urgently needed. We an iterative Gibbs sampler based approach (GSimp). compared GSimp with other three two...
Clinical prediction of advanced hepatic fibrosis (HF) and cirrhosis has long been challenging due to the gold standard, liver biopsy, being an invasive approach with certain limitations. Less blood test tandem a cutting-edge machine learning algorithm shows promising diagnostic potential.In this study, we constructed compared methods FIB-4 score in discovery dataset (n = 490) hepatitis B virus (HBV) patients. Models were validated independent HBV 86). We further employed these models on two...
Dysregulation of sphingomyelin and ceramide metabolism have been implicated in Alzheimer's disease. Genome-wide transcriptome-wide association studies identified various genes genetic variants lipid that are associated with However, the molecular mechanisms disruption remain to be determined. We focus on sphingolipid pathway carry out multi-omics analyses identify central peripheral metabolic changes patients, correlating them imaging features. Our approach is based (a) 2114 human...
Abstract Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD), one of the most prevailing malignant tumors in digestive system, is identified as main culprits cancer-associated mortality. Despite long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 1232 (LINC01232) found to be upregulated TCGA PAAD tissues and associated with poor prognosis, potential LINC01232 progression still needs more explorations. In this study, was chosen research object cellular processes. Functionally, loss-of function assays were carried out...
Temporal persistence is as important for nanocarriers spatial accuracy. However, because of the insufficient aggreagtion and short retention time chemotherapy drugs in tumors, their clinical application greatly limited. A drug delivery approach dependent on sensitivity to an enzyme present microenvironment tumor designed exhibit different sizes sites, achieving enhanced permeability improve nanotherapy efficacy. In this work, we report a small-molecule peptide system containing both...
Accurate and noninvasive diagnosis staging of liver fibrosis are essential for effective clinical management chronic disease (CLD). We aimed to identify serum metabolite markers that reliably predict the stage in CLD patients.We quantitatively profiled metabolites participants 2 independent cohorts. Based on metabolomics data from cohort 1 (504 HBV associated patients 502 normal controls, NC), we selected a panel 4 predictive markers. Consequently, constructed 3 machine learning models with...
Abstract Introduction Missing values exist widely in mass-spectrometry (MS) based metabolomics data. Various methods have been applied for handling missing values, but the selection of can significantly affect following data analyses and interpretations. According to definition, there are three types completely at random (MCAR), (MAR), not (MNAR). Objectives The aim this study was comprehensively compare common imputation different using two separate sets (977 198 serum samples respectively)...
The incidence of Alzheimer's disease (AD) increases with age and is becoming a significant cause worldwide morbidity mortality. However, the metabolic perturbation behind onset AD remains unclear. In this study, we performed metabolite profiling in both brain (n = 109) matching serum samples 566) to identify differentially expressed metabolites pathways associated neuropathology cognitive performance individuals at high risk developing impairment. abundances 6 metabolites, glycolithocholate...
Scope The objective of this study is to develop a new methodology identify the relationship between dietary patterns and metabolites indicative food intake metabolism. Methods results Plasma urine samples from healthy Swiss subjects ( n = 89) collected over two time points are analyzed for panel host–microbial using GC– LC–MS. Dietary evaluated validated frequency questionnaire. pattern clusters relationships with determined Non‐Negative Matrix Factorization (NNMF) Sparse Generalized...
A fluorine-free cerium palmitate superhydrophobic surface on an aluminum plate was fabricated via a two-step electrodeposition method. The mechanical durability, anti-corrosion performance, water repellency and drag reduction properties were tested. results indicate that with densely packed convex island shape micro-pores nano-scale strips formed the plate. Furthermore, as-prepared exhibits excellent water-repelling ability contact angle of 162.3° sliding 1.5°. Owing to protective effect...
Rapid and accurate identification of specific sepsis pathogens is critical for patient treatment disease control. This study aimed to establish a new application the rapid common in patients with suspected evaluate its role clinical application. A multiplex PCR assay was designed simultaneously amplify conserved regions nine pathogenic microorganisms sepsis, including Acinetobacter baumannii, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumonia, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Enterococcus faecalis,...

Accumulating evidence points to the strong and complicated associations between metabolome microbiome, which play diverse roles in physiology pathology. Various correlation analysis approaches were applied identify microbe–metabolite associations. Given strengths weaknesses of existing methods considering characteristics different types omics data, we designed a special strategy, called Generalized coRrelation for Metabolome Microbiome (GRaMM), intercorrelation discovery microbiome. GRaMM...
