Prediction of microvascular obstruction from angio-based microvascular resistance and available clinical data in percutaneous coronary intervention: an explainable machine learning... by Zhe Zhang, Yang Dai, Peng Xue, Xue Bao, Xinbo Bai, Shiyang Qiao, Yuan Gao, Xuemei Guo, Yanan Xue, Qing Dai, Biao Xu, Lina Kang

“…The ML workflow comprised feature selection using the Boruta algorithm, model construction with seven classifiers, hyperparameter optimization via ten-fold cross-validation, model comparison based on the area under the curve (AUC), and a Shapley additive explanations (SHAP) analysis to analyze the significance of different features. 32.29% of patients showed inconsistency between AMR and MVO, but we successfully constructed a predictive model for MVO. …”

Microplastics mediates the spread of antimicrobial resistance plasmids via modulating conjugal gene expression by Qiu E. Yang, Zhenyan Lin, Dehao Gan, Minchun Li, Xuedan Liu, Shungui Zhou, Timothy R. Walsh

“…Furthermore, we show that MPs induce the expression of plasmid-borne conjugal genes and SOS-linked genes such as recA, lexA, dinB and dinD. High-throughput sequencing of the broad transmission of plasmid pA/C_MCR-8, shows distribution over two main phyla, Pseudomonadota (50.0 %-95.0 %) and Bacillota (0.4 %-2.0 %). …”
