In Silico Spectral Investigation of Methemoglobin and Sulfhemoglobin Effects on Human Skin Reflectance
There are several pathologies whose study and diagnosis is impaired by a relatively small number of documented cases. A practical approach to overcome this obstacle and advance the research in this area consists in employing computer simulations to perform controlled in silico experiments. The results of these experiment, in turn, may be incorporated in the design of differential protocols for ...
متن کاملDiagnostic Pitfalls of Discriminating Lymphoma-Associated Effusions
High serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) level, immunologic defects, enlarged mediastinal lymph nodes, and frequent hydration and diuresis in lymphoma patients may affect the development of pleural effusion (PE). The study was to assess the clinical utility of "Light criteria" and the "recommended algorithm for investigating PEs" in patients with lymphoma.The characteristics of 126 PEs of lymphom...
متن کاملFructation Induces Hemin Degradation in Methemoglobin
Under prolonged diabetic conditions, HbA1c is produced from normal hemoglobin (HbA0) through a non-enzymatic glycosylation or glycation, a process which enhances the hemoglobin susceptibility to be auto-oxidized to methemoglobin (metHb). Here we are reporting that the non-enzymatic reaction between fructose and metHb (metHb fructation) induces significant changes in the gl...
متن کاملChallenges in discriminating profanity from hate speech
In this study we approach the problem of distinguishing general profanity from hate speech in social media, something which has not been widely considered. Using a new dataset annotated specifically for this task, we employ supervised classification along with a set of features that includes n-grams, skip-grams and clustering-based word representations. We apply approaches based on single class...
متن کاملProperties of methemoglobin reductase and kinetic study of methemoglobin reduction.
A soluble erythrocyte cytochrome b5 was purified as the substrate of methemoglobin reductase and an electron carrier to methemoglobin. The isoelectric point of this protein was at pH 4.3, and E0' was -0.010 at pH 7.0.. The Km value of the enzyme for this protein was 1 x 10(-4) M, and the turnover number (k5) was 3.4 x 10(4) min-1, with NADH as an electron donor at pH 7.0. The optimum pH of the ...
