Article Abstract

Objective: The cerebral mechanisms of traits associated with depersonalization-derealization disorder (DPRD) remain poorly understood.

Method: Happy and sad emotion expressions were presented to DPRD and non-referred control (NC) subjects in an implicit event-related functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) design, and correlated with self report scales reflecting typical co-morbidities of DPRD: depression, dissociation, anxiety, somatization.

Results: Significant differences between the slopes of the two groups were observed for somatization in the right temporal operculum (happy) and ventral striatum, bilaterally (sad). Discriminative regions for symptoms of depression were the right pulvinar (happy) and left amygdala (sad). For dissociation, discriminative regions were the left mesial inferior temporal gyrus (happy) and left supramarginal gyrus (sad). For state anxiety, discriminative regions were the left inferior frontal gyrus (happy) and parahippocampal gyrus (sad). For trait anxiety, discriminative regions were the right caudate head (happy) and left superior temporal gyrus (sad). Discussion The ascertained brain regions are in line with previous findings for the respective traits. The findings suggest separate brain systems for each trait.

Conclusion: Our results do not justify any bias for a certain nosological category in DPRD.

Background: Pathogenic responses against self and foreign antigens in systemic autoimmunity and infection, respectively, engage similar immunologic components, thus lacking distinguishing diagnostic biomarkers. Herein, we tested whether whole-blood transcriptome analysis discriminates autoimmune from infectious diseases.

Methods: We applied nested cross-validation methodology to tune and validate random forests, k-nearest neighbors, and support vector machines, using a new preprocessing method on 22 publicly available datasets, including 594 patients with a broad spectrum of systemic autoimmune diseases and 615 patients with diverse viral, bacterial, and parasitic infections.

Background: Burns are associated with significant morbidity and mortality, with several factors determining mortality. Identifying reliable early predictors of mortality is crucial for guiding treatment decisions and improving outcomes. This study evaluates the prognostic significance of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) in predicting mortality in patients with severe burns.

Integrated Ising model with global inhibition for decision-making.

Humans and other organisms make decisions choosing between different options, with the aim of maximizing the reward and minimizing the cost. The main theoretical framework for modeling the decision-making process has been based on the highly successful drift-diffusion model, which is a simple tool for explaining many aspects of this process. However, recent observations challenge this model.

This study investigates the phenolic and fatty acid profiles of olives from four cultivars (Arbequina, Arbosana, Frantene, and Koroneiki), widely grown in the Mediterranean region and collected at different ripening stages in Italy. The aim was to assess the potential of olive chemical profiles as markers for cultivar classification using machine learning algorithms, including Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA), K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Naive Bayes (NB), Random Forest (RF), and Support Vector Machine (SVM). Results showed that phenolic profiling achieved significantly higher classification accuracy than fatty acids across all models.
