Protein-protein docking simulations can provide the predicted complex structural models. In a docking simulation, several putative structural models are selected by scoring functions from an ensemble of many complex models. Scoring functions based on statistical analyses of heterodimers are usually designed to select the complex model with the most abundant interaction mode found among the know...

This study aims to explore the values of different scoring systems in predicting the prognosis of patients with paraquat poisoning, and find out the most clinical application value of indicators. The patients with paraquat poisoning were included and treated in the emergency department from January 2016 to October 2016, every patient was underwent different scoring system, and the Receiver Oper...

There has been no perimetric index or scoring method available to quantify both glaucomatous and neuro-ophthalmic threshold field defects on a continuum, with emphasis on neuronal correlates and presumed damage. The absolute-relative-total scotoma (ARTS) scoring algorithm identifies the percentage of absolute, relative and total scotoma components of static threshold perimetric results. ARTS sc...

Credit scoring plays a vital role in the field of consumer finance. Survival analysis provides an advanced solution to credit-scoring problem by quantifying probability survival time. In order deal with highly heterogeneous industrial data collected Chinese market finance, we propose nonparametric ensemble tree model called gradient boosting (GBST) that extends models algorithm. The is learned ...

BACKGROUND Multiple clinical scoring systems have been proposed for Silver-Russell syndrome (SRS). Here we aimed to test a clinical scoring system for SRS and to analyse the correlation between (epi)genotype and phenotype. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Sixty-nine patients were examined by two physicians. Clinical scores were generated for all patients, with a new, six-item scoring system: (1) small fo...

The new scoring system for assessment of the extent and severity of skin inflammation index in atopic dermatitis patients, W-AZS, is presented. The system provides detailed assessment of both subjective and objective signs and symptoms of atopic dermatitis. With the use of W-AZS, acute and chronic skin manifestations of inflammatory process are appropriately evaluated and scored. It also enable...

Acute pancreatitis has a variable etiology and natural history, and some patients have severe complications with a significant risk of death. The prediction of severe disease should be achieved by careful ongoing clinical assessment coupled with the use of a multiple factor scoring system and imaging studies. Over the past 30 years several scoring systems have been developed to predict the seve...
