Article Abstract

Infinium HumanMethylation450 beadarray is a popular technology to explore DNA methylomes in health and disease, and there is a current explosion in the use of this technique. Despite experience acquired from gene expression microarrays, analyzing Infinium Methylation arrays appeared more complex than initially thought and several difficulties have been encountered, as those arrays display specific features that need to be taken into consideration during data processing. Here, we review several issues that have been highlighted by the scientific community, and we present an overview of the general data processing scheme and an evaluation of the different normalization methods available to date to guide the 450K users in their analysis and data interpretation.

Estimation of Brachial-Ankle Pulse Wave Velocity With Hierarchical Regression Model From Wrist Photoplethysmography and Electrocardiographic Signals: Method Design.

JMIR Biomed Eng

August 2025

Cardiovascular Center and Divisions of Cardiology and Hospital Medicine, Department of Internal Medicine, National Taiwan University Hospital, No.7, Chung Shan S Rd, Taipei, 100225, Taiwan, 886 2-2312-3456.

Background: Photoplethysmography (PPG) signals captured by wearable devices can provide vascular age information and support pervasive and long-term monitoring of personal health condition.

Objective: In this study, we aimed to estimate brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) from wrist PPG and electrocardiography (ECG) from smartwatch.

Methods: A total of 914 wrist PPG and ECG sequences and 278 baPWV measurements were collected via the smartwatch from 80 men and 82 women with average age of 63.

Clinical Role of the Noninvasive Abdominal Fetal ECG in the Detection and Monitoring of Fetal Tachycardia.

Circ Arrhythm Electrophysiol

September 2025

Department of Congenital Heart Disease, Evelina London Children's Hospital, United Kingdom (S. Chivers, T.V., V.Z., S.M., G.M., W.R., E.R., D.F.A.L., T.G.D., O.I.M., G.K.S., J.M.S.).

Background: Fetal tachycardias can cause adverse fetal outcomes including ventricular dysfunction, hydrops, and fetal demise. Postnatally, ECG is the gold standard, but, in fetal practice, echocardiography is used most frequently to diagnose and monitor fetal arrhythmias. Noninvasive extraction of the fetal ECG (fECG) may provide additional information about the electrophysiological mechanism and monitoring of intermittent arrhythmias.

Background: Subcellular localisation is a determining factor of protein function. Mass spectrometry-based correlation profiling experiments facilitate the classification of protein subcellular localisation on a proteome-wide scale. In turn, static localisations can be compared across conditions to identify differential protein localisation events.

Background: This study aimed to explore the barriers and facilitators of implementing rehabilitation interventions for visual field loss due to stroke.

Methods: The study was a qualitative exploration using one-to-one interviews coded using template analysis and the COM-B a-priori framework. Participants were five occupational therapists from hospital (n=4) and community (n=1) National Health Service (NHS) stroke care settings in England.

Machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) methodologies have significantly advanced drug discovery and design in several aspects. Additionally, the integration of structure-based data has proven to successfully support and improve the models' predictions. Indeed, we previously demonstrated that combining molecular dynamics (MD)-derived descriptors with ML models allows to effectively classify kinase ligands as allosteric or orthosteric.
