DNA Sequence Analysis in Clinical Medicine, Proceeding Cautiously

DNA Sequence Analysis in Clinical Medicine, Proceeding Cautiously

Delineation of underlying genomic and genetic factors in a specific disease may be valuable in establishing a definitive diagnosis and may guide patient management and counseling. In addition, genetic information may be useful in identification of at risk family members. Gene mapping and initial genome sequencing data enabled the development of microarrays to analyze genomic variants. The goal ...

Cautiously using natural medicine to treat liver problems

Natural medicine is a system of therapy that administrates natural agents and their derivatives to treat human diseases. This medicine has been used to treat many kinds of human diseases for thousands of years. The treatment protocols of natural medicine are integrative in nature, and are required to utilize the most appropriate therapies to address the needs of the individual patient. Because ...

DNA Sequence Analysis using

Adaptive resonance theory (ART) describes a class of artiicial neural network architectures that act as classiication tools which self-organize, work in real-time, and require no retraining to classify novel sequences. We have adapted ART networks to provide support to scientists attempting to categorize tandem repeat DNA fragments from Onchocerca volvulus. In this approach, sequences of DNA fr...
