An exploration on the machine-learning-based stroke prediction model
With the rapid development of artificial intelligence technology, machine learning algorithms have been widely applied at various stages of stroke diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis, demonstrating significant potential. A correlation between stroke and cytokine levels in the human body has recently been reported. Our study aimed to establish machine-learning models based
Peter Gøtzsche: Scientists must stand up to governments who act against the evidence
Cochrane Collaboration co-founder Peter Gøtzsche has written an article that reads as an open letter to scientists the world over.
“Looking back, it seems appropriate to abbreviate the covid-19 pandemic as the covid-19 panic, or to call it the pandemic of censorship and poor science,” he writes.

Comprehensive genomic characterization and expression analysis of calreticulin gene family in tomato
Calreticulin (CRT) is a calcium-binding endoplasmic reticulum (ER) protein that has been identified for multiple cellular processes, including protein folding, regulation of gene expression, calcium (Ca2+) storage and signaling, regeneration, and stress responses. However, the lack of information about this protein family in tomato species highlights the importance of functional
