πŸ“‘On the use of Networks in Biomedicine

πŸ’₯From Abstract: Most biological networks are still far from being complete and they are often difficult to interpret due to the complexity of relationships and the peculiarities of the data. Starting from preliminary notions about neural networks, we focus on biological networks and discuss some well-known applications, like protein-protein interaction networks, gene regulatory networks (DNA-protein interaction networks), metabolic networks, signaling networks, neuronal network, phylogenetic trees and special networks.

πŸ₯›Probiotics has no bad effect on any diseases
πŸ’₯Twenty years review of probiotic meta-analyses articles: Effects on disease prevention and treatment

From abstract: Here, we collected close to 300 meta-analysis articles for 20 years, investigating the effect of probiotics in the prevention and treatment of diseases. The goal of this study is to provide an overview of all meta-analysis articles of the effects of probiotics on various human diseases. Papers studied and categorized and investigated in order to present valuable insights for researchers in the field. According to the results, most meta-analyses indicated probiotics were 79% effective in preventing or treating the diseases. Some articles have also reported no positive effects, but there is not any paper in our study confirming the detrimental influence of probiotic effect on human health.

πŸ§‘β€πŸŽ¨ Ten simple rules to colorize biological data visualization

Abstract: Methods for visualization of biological data continue to improve, but there is still a fundamental challenge in colorization of these visualizations (vis). Visual representation of biological data should not overwhelm, obscure, or bias the findings, but rather make them more understandable. This is often due to the challenge of how to use color effectively in creating visualizations. The recent global adoption of data vis has helped address this challenge in some fields, but it remains open in the biological domain. The visualization of biological data deals with the application of computer graphics, scientific visualization, and information visualization in various areas of the life sciences. This paper describes 10 simple rules to colorize biological data visualization.

πŸ““ A Little Book of R For Bioinformatics
By: Dr Avril Coghlan - from Sanger Institute

πŸ’₯This is a simple introduction to bioinformatics, with a focus on genome analysis, using the R statistics software. To encourage research into neglected tropical diseases such as leprosy, Chagas disease, trachoma, schistosomiasis etc., most of the examples in this booklet are for analysis of the genomes of the organisms that cause these diseases.

πŸ“‘Machine learning in medicine: a practical introduction to natural language processing

πŸ’₯The methods of this paper is structured into four parts, which in turn cover:
1. Basic NLP techniques for data cleaning in open-text datasets
2. Positive and negative sentiment analysis of drug reviews, with a freely-available lexicon
3. Unsupervised machine learning to identify similarities and differences between drugs, based on the words used to describe them
4. Supervised machine learning (classification) to predict whether a free text drug review will be associated with a dichotomised β€œGood” or β€œBad” numerical score

We present samples of code written using the R Statistical Programming Language within the paper to illustrate the methods described, and provide the full script as a supplementary file. At points in the analysis, we deliberately simplify and shorten the dataset so that these analyses can be reproduced in reasonable time on a personal desktop or laptop, although this would clearly be suboptimal for original research studies.
While this paper is intended for readers who are relatively new to the field, some basic familiarity with the R programming language and machine learning concepts will make this manuscript easier to follow.
