Mining characteristics of epidemiological studies from Medline: a case study in obesity
BackgroundThe health sciences literature incorporates a relatively large subset of epidemiological studies that focus on population-level findings,...

Multi-scale Models in Biology
In this chapter we will develop multi-scale models of cell population dynamics. We will begin with equations of cell kinetics which are similar to... -
Other Distances
In this chapter we group together distances and distance paradigms which do not fit in the previous chapters, being either too practical (as in... -
Mathematical Models for Blood Coagulation
This chapter presents an overview and introduction to blood coagulation models. The historical exposure of the development of classical coagulation... -
Stróże
We arrived in Stróżze on the same day we left Osiczyna, that is, on July 11, 1942. At the station a lad offered to take our luggage to Berdechów1 in... -
Reaction-diffusion Processes, Models and Applications
Reaction-diffusion equations describe distributions of temperature, concentrations or of some other variables in space and in time. These equations... -
Wrocław Again
JANUARY 16, 1948. On January 3 I met with Mr. Żarnecki, Tadeusz, director of a Polish government agency Żarnecki,... -
Tendon Mechanobiology: Experimental Models Require Mathematical Underpinning
Mathematical and computational modeling is in demand to help address current challenges in mechanobiology of musculoskeletal tissues. In particular...

Diary Entries
DECEMBER 20, 1944. Yesterday the post brought news of Janek. Just two days out of hospital, he again came down with... -
Clinical Data Mining to Discover Optimal Treatment Patterns
With more healthcare providers adopting an electronic medical record, with the ready availability of insurance claims data, and with the availability... -
In Chinese Characters
Showing scrupulous respect for a scientific culture like that of China, so distant and so different from our own, means starting to consider its... -
Solutions of Differential–Difference Equations Arising from Mathematical Models of Granulocytopoiesis
The closed form solutions of differential–difference equations arising from mathematical models of granulocytopoiesis, both with and without maturing...

Neuromuscular Alterations of Upper Airway Muscles in Patients with OSAS: Radiological and Histopathological Findings
This article reviews studies of upper airway muscles in humans, observed in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). These studies... -
Blood coagulation: A puzzle for biologists, a maze for mathematicians
We present a concise summary of mathematical models for the formation and dissolution of blood clots (in other words for the process of hemostasis).... -
A Statistical Diagnostic Decision Support Tool Using Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Data
The aim of this study was to develop a practical postprocessing statistical tool for spectroscopic data analysis to successively create an effective... -

The title of any book, monograph, or article tells the reader broadly what he can expect to attain from the book by reading it. The title is... -
Scalable representations of diseases in biomedical ontologies
BackgroundThe realm of pathological entities can be subdivided into pathological dispositions, pathological processes, and pathological structures....
