TL;DR: Sirolimus was associated with a reduction in the risk of malignancy and non-melanoma skin cancer in transplant recipients and the use of this drug does not seem warranted for most patients with kidney transplant.

TL;DR: This study showed that serum miRNAs 21 and 221 expression profiling tests may be used as specific noninvasive molecular biomarkers for prostate cancer diagnosis due to their higher sensitivity and specificity with a high negative predictive value leading to a decrease in the biopsies taken for patients with elevated serum PSA values.

TL;DR: An adaptive diagnostic system for the classification of breathing events for the purpose of detecting sleep apnea syndromes using a fuzzy logic-based and a center of gravity engine, which is trained adaptively using normal and abnormal data of the same patient.

TL;DR: It is suggested that quantifying the reduction of soft tissue strain is an essential design requirement for orthotic insoles since plantar pressure may not be a sufficient indicator of the effectiveness of an insole in preventing ulcer initiation.

TL;DR: A novel automated edge detection method which employs a multi-step gradient based algorithm that greatly eliminates subjectivity associated with conventional manual tracing and semi-automated gradient methods that employ seed point selection.
