Analysis of Machine Learning Techniques for Breast Cancer Prediction

The most frequently happening cancer among Indian women is breast cancer, which is the second most exposed cancer in the world. Here is a chance of fifty percent for fatality in a case as one of two women diagnosed with breast cancer die in the cases of Indian women.  With the rapid population growth, the risk of death incurred by breast cancer is rising exponentially. [2] Breast cancer is the second most severe cancer among all of the cancers already unveiled. A machine learning technique discovers illness which helps clinical staffs in sickness analysis and offers dependable, powerful, and quick reaction just as diminishes the danger of death. In this paper, we look at five administered AI methods named Support vector machine (SVM), K-closest neighbours, irregular woodlands, fake/ Artificial neural organizations (ANNs). The performance of the study is measured with respect to accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, precision, negative predictive value. Furthermore, these strategies were evaluated on exactness review region under bend and beneficiary working trademark bend. At last in this paper we analysed some of different papers to find how they are predicted and what are all the techniques they were used and finally we study the complete research of machine learning techniques for breast cancer

Think-aloud evaluation of mobile information technology for older adults with chronic heart failure

poster abstractChronic heart failure (CHF) is a complex disease that often requires continuous medical attention.CHF is globally prevalent, especially among older adults. With more healthcare taking place in homes, controlling and managing the symptoms and progression of CHF depends critically on self-care behaviors such as medication taking and nutrition management by elderly patients. Based on Human Factors analysis of data gathered from interviews, surveys and in-home observations, our team designed Engage, a mobile, health information technology (HIT) tool customized for use by older adults with CHF. Engage is primarily envisioned to provide support for self-care and includes functionality designed and evaluated such as the: (1) logging daily values; (2) setting and monitoring daily self-management goals related to food intake and physical activities; (3) learning more information on self-care topics such as nutrition; and (4) visualizing collected information. Our team conducted an initial exploratory evaluation of Engage used think-aloud testing (in a controlled lab setting) with 5 older patients with CHF. Evaluation sessions involved patients using Engage’s functionalities based on hypothetical scenarios. Patients completed tasks guided by scripted instructions with each evaluation session being video recorded to capture user expectations and Engage’s usability. Results revealed design recommendations that will be tested in subsequent iterations of Engage. Our initial evaluation also pointed to the patients’ perceived benefits and barriers in using Engage over a 30-day period

What can a morphometric study of unoperated children teach us about the natural history of metopic synostosis?

Outcomes of surgical repair of trigonocephaly are well reported in the literature, but there is a paucity of information on the natural history of unoperated children. The authors evaluated a group of unoperated children with metopic synostosis to describe the natural change in head shape over time. A database was screened for scans of children with unoperated trigonocephaly (2010-2021). Multisuture cases and those with a metopic ridge were excluded. Three-dimensional surface scans (3D stereophotogrammetry/CT) were used for morphological analysis. Nine previously published parameters were used: frontal angle (FA30°), anteroposterior (AP) volume ratio (APVR), AP area ratio (APAR), AP width ratios 1 and 2 (APWR1 and APWR2), and 4 AP diagonal ratios (30° right APDR [rAPDR30], 30° left APDR [lAPDR30], 60° right APDR [rAPDR60], and 60° left APDR [lAPDR60]). Ninety-seven scans were identified from a cohort of 316 patients with a single metopic suture, in which the male-to-female ratio was 2.7:1. Ages at the time of the scan ranged from 9 days to 11 years and were stratified into 4 groups: group 1, 3 years. Significant improvements were detected in 5 parameters (APVR, APAR, APWR1, rAPDR30, and lAPDR30) over time, whereas no significant differences were found in FA30, APWR2, rAPDR60, and lAPDR60 between age groups. Forehead shape (surface area and volume), as well as narrowing and anterolateral contour at the frontal points, differed significantly over time without surgery. However, forehead angulation, narrowing, and anterolateral contour at temporal points did not show significant differences. This knowledge will aid in surgical and parental decision-making

Preliminary assessment, restoration and aquaculture support for a small wetland

In line with the strategy of regional wetland datasets integration to a common national digital platform, map of small wetlands less than 2.2 ha in Kochi Taluk was prepared. A representative small wetland at Edakochi village of Kerala was selected through maps and field visits for preliminary assessment and restoration. Shuttle Radar Topography Mission’s Digital Elevation Model (DEM) was used to assess the general elevation, slope and flow accumulation pattern of the selected wetland along with assessment of the catchment area and drainage pattern. Restoration works of the selected wetland was carried out vis-a-vis side bund strengthening and sluice gate fortification. The comparative analysis of water quality assessment of wetland before and after restoration revealed improvement in water quality parameters as well as increase in water level. The Dissolved Oxygen level of the aquatic system was found to have increased substantially along with other several favourable changes in water parameters due to the restoration activities. The restored wetland at Edakochi was further utilised for multispecies farming of prawns, Pearl spot, Milk fish and Grey mullet and the harvest indicated sustainable yield. Aquaculture practice in wetlands with real time scientific advisories could ensure continuous data generation and village level climate resilience

The ACT-ONE trial, a multicentre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-finding study of the anabolic/catabolic transforming agent, MT-102 in subjects with cachexia related to stage III and IV non-small cell lung cancer and colorectal cancer: study design

Aims Cachexia, the wasting disorder associated with a wide range of serious illnesses including cancer, is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. There is currently no widely approved therapeutic agent for treating or preventing cancer-associated cachexia. Colorectal cancer and nonsmall cell lung cancer have relatively high incidences of cachexia, approximately 28% and 34%, respectively. Neurohormonal overactivity has been implicated in the genesis and progression of cachexia and beta receptor antagonism has been proposed as a potential therapy. MT-102, a novel anabolic/catabolic transforming agent, has a multi-functional effect upon three potential pharmacological targets in cancer cachexia, namely reduced catabolism through non-selective β-blockade, reduced fatigue, and thermogenesis through central 5-HT1a antagonism and increased anabolism through partial β-2 receptor agonism. Methods At least 132 male and female patients, aged between 25 and 80 years with a confirmed diagnosis of late-stage non-small cell lung cancer or colorectal cancer, with cachexia will be randomised to either one of the two MT-102 doses or placebo in a 3:1:2 ratio (MT-102 10 mg BD−1/MT-102 2.5 mg BD/placebo). Patients will continue on study treatment for maximally 16 weeks. The primary endpoint, to be analysed by assigned treatment group, will be body weight change over 16 weeks. For this endpoint, the study has 85% power (0.05% significance level) to detect per 4-week period a mean change of −0.8 kg in the placebo group and 0 kg in the high-dose MT-102 arm. The first patient was randomised in February 2011 and patient recruitment is expected to continue until mid-2012. Perspective The ACT-ONE trial is designed to test whether the anabolic/catabolic transforming agent MT-102 will positively impact on the rate of change of body weight in cancer cachexia, thereby evaluating a novel therapeutic strategy in this hitherto poorly treatable condition. A separate ACT-TWO trial will recruit patients who complete the ACT-ONE trial and remain on randomised double-blind medication. Participants in ACT-TWO will be followed for an additional period with a separate primary endpoint
