In this research, a fuzzy inference system (FIS) coupled with image processing technique was developed as a decision-support system for qualitative grading of milled rice. Two quality indices, namely degree of milling (DOM) and percentage of broken kernels (PBK) were first graded by rice processing experts into five classes. Then, images of the same samples were captured using a machine vision ...

The aim of the present study was to investigate the molecular mechanism of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) primary tumor development through the identification of key genes using bioinformatics approaches. Using the GSE53819 microarray dataset, acquired from the Gene Expression Omnibus database, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened out between NPC primary tumor and control samples...

OBJECTIVE We aimed to identify some pivotal genes and pathways for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) transformation from cirrhosis and explore potential targets for treatment of the disease. METHODS The GSE17548 microarray data were downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus database, and 37 samples (20 cirrhosis and 17 HCC samples) were used for analysis. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) ...

Ezrin-radixin-moesin (ERM)-binding phosphoprotein 50 (EBP50) has previously been demonstrated to be associated with the malignant transformation of numerous types of human cancer. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of EBP50 overexpression on pancreatic cancer and the underlying mechanism. Reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the...
