Personalized Medicine: The Use Of Biomarkers And Molecularly Targeted Therapies For Patient Care And Cancer Intervention, Wafa Asad, Emily Schmitt Lavin
Mako: NSU Undergraduate Student Journal
Personalized medicine and targeted therapy have been emerging fields of study for the remediation and inhibition of cancer. Personalized medicine in the treatment of cancer involves using genetic, immune, and proteomic profiling to provide therapeutic options as well as prognostic background for every patient and their tumor’s genetic mutations. Targeted therapies allow researchers and medical personnel alike to determine the appropriate treatment for a patient based on the molecular basis and mechanistic actions of a cancerous tumor. The overall significance of this study was to express how these treatments use biomarkers to pinpoint the location, and severity of the cancer, …

Journal of Appalachian Health
A meta-analysis of oncology papers from around the world revealed that cancer patients who lived more than 50 miles away from hospital centers routinely presented with more advanced stages of disease at diagnosis, exhibited lower adherence to prescribed treatments, presented with poorer diagnoses, and reported a lower quality of life than patients who lived nearer to care facilities. Connected health approaches—or the use of broadband and telecommunications technologies to evaluate, diagnose, and monitor patients beyond the clinic—are becoming an indispensable tool in medicine to overcome the obstacle of distance.
Application Of Nanomaterials In The Detection Of Volatile Organic Compounds In Exhaled Breath For Cancer Diagnosis, Wan-Qiao Bai, Xue-Zhi Qiao, Tie Wang
Application Of Nanomaterials In The Detection Of Volatile Organic Compounds In Exhaled Breath For Cancer Diagnosis, Wan-Qiao Bai, Xue-Zhi Qiao, Tie Wang
Journal of Electrochemistry
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) generated in human body can reflect one’s health state, and numerous diseases are identified by some VOCs biomarkers. More recently, analyses of VOCs biomarkers from exhaled breath have turned into a research frontier worldwide because it offers a noninvasive way for diseases diagnosis. Various kinds of nanomaterials are used to enhance the performance of sensing techniques, and play an essential role in miniaturization detection. In this review, several kinds of nanomaterials (metallic, metal oxide, carbon-based, composites and MOFs-based materials) used in various VOCs detection methods, especially in VOCs sensors are summarized. Learning from the successful utilization …

Comparing Nox Emissions Of Diesel Fuel And Oxygenated Fuels, Timothy M. Allred, Dr. Dale R. Tree
Journal of Undergraduate Research
The emissions produced by both passenger and commercial vehicles are a significant contributor to pollution problems that face many cities and areas around the world. One of these pollutants is known as NOx, which refers to the chemical compounds NO2 and NO. These gases are formed when fuel is burned at high temperatures and are an undesirable by-product of the internal combustion engine. Nitrogen dioxide reacts in air to form acid rain as well as contributing to ground-level ozone and smog.
Cancer Risk Analysis By Fuzzy Logic Approach And Performance Status Of The Model, Atinç Yilmaz, Kürşat Ayan
Cancer Risk Analysis By Fuzzy Logic Approach And Performance Status Of The Model, Atinç Yilmaz, Kürşat Ayan
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Cancer is the leading life-threatening disease for people in today's world. Although cancer formation is different for each type of cancer, it has been determined by studies and research that stress also triggers cancer types. Early precaution is very important for people who have not fallen ill yet with a disease like cancer that has a high mortality rate and expensive treatment. With this study, we expound that the possibility of developing such disease may be decreased and people could take measures against it. For the 3 cancer types selected as pilot work by introducing a fuzzy logic model, the …

Sdre Optimal Control Of Drug Administration In Cancer Treatment, Mehmet İti̇k, Meti̇n Uymaz Salamci̇, Stephen Paul Banks
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this study, we apply State Dependent Riccati Equation (SDRE) based optimal control technique to a nonlinear tumor growth model. The model consists of three biological cells which are normal tissue, tumor and immune cells. The effect of chemotherapy treatment is also included in the model. Chemotherapy administration is considered as a control input to the nonlinear cancer dynamics and the amount of administered drug is determined by using SDRE optimal control. The optimal control is applied to the model in order not only to drive the tumor cells to the healthy equilibrium state but also to minimize the amount …
