    Molecular Mechanisms of Drug Resistance and Its Reversal in Cancer
    (Taylor and Francis Ltd healthcare.enquiries@informa.com, 2015-03-11) Kartal Yandim, Melis; Adan Gökbulut, Aysun; Baran, Yusuf; Adan-Gokbulut, Aysun; Kartal-Yandim, Melis
    Chemotherapy is the main strategy for the treatment of cancer. However, the main problem limiting the success of chemotherapy is the development of multidrug resistance. The resistance can be intrinsic or acquired. The resistance phenotype is associated with the tumor cells that gain a cross-resistance to a large range of drugs that are structurally and functionally different. Multidrug resistance arises via many unrelated mechanisms, such as overexpression of energy-dependent efflux proteins, decrease in uptake of the agents, increase or alteration in drug targets, modification of cell cycle checkpoints, inactivation of the agents, compartmentalization of the agents, inhibition of apoptosis and aberrant bioactive sphingolipid metabolism. Exact elucidation of resistance mechanisms and molecular and biochemical approaches to overcome multidrug resistance have been a major goal in cancer research. This review comprises the mechanisms guiding multidrug resistance in cancer chemotherapy and also touches on approaches for reversing the resistance. © 2017 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    CSA-DE-LR Enhancing Cardiovascular Disease Diagnosis With a Novel Hybrid Machine Learning Approach
    (PeerJ Inc., 2024-07-18) Dedeturk, Beyhan Adanur; Dedeturk, Bilge Kagan; Bakir-Güngör, Burcu
    Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are a leading cause of mortality globally, necessitating the development of efficient diagnostic tools. Machine learning (ML) and metaheuristic algorithms have become prevalent in addressing these challenges, providing promising solutions in medical diagnostics. However, traditional ML approaches often need to be improved in feature selection and optimization, leading to suboptimal performance in complex diagnostic tasks. To overcome these limitations, this study introduces a new hybrid method called CSA-DE-LR, which combines the clonal selection algorithm (CSA) and differential evolution (DE) with logistic regression. This integration is designed to optimize logistic regression weights efficiently for the accurate classification of CVD. The methodology employs three optimization strategies based on the F1 score, the Matthews correlation coefficient (MCC), and the mean absolute error (MAE). Extensive evaluations on benchmark datasets, namely Cleveland and Statlog, reveal that CSA-DELR outperforms state-of-the-art ML methods. In addition, generalization is evaluated using the Breast Cancer Wisconsin Original (WBCO) and Breast Cancer Wisconsin Diagnostic (WBCD) datasets. Significantly, the proposed model demonstrates superior efficacy compared to previous research studies in this domain. This study’s findings highlight the potential of hybrid machine learning approaches for improving diagnostic accuracy, offering a significant advancement in the fields of medical data analysis and CVD diagnosis. © 2024 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    An Optimally Configured and Improved Deep Belief Network (OCI-DBN) Approach for Heart Disease Prediction Based on Ruzzo-Tompa and Stacked Genetic Algorithm
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2020) Ali, Syed Arslan; Raza, Basit; Malik, Ahmad Kamran Kamran; Shahid, Ahmad Raza; Faheem, Muhammed Yasir; Alquhayz, Hani Ali; Kumar, Y. J.
    A rapid increase in heart disease has occurred in recent years, which might be the result of unhealthy food, mental stress, genetic issues, and a sedentary lifestyle. There are many advanced automated diagnosis systems for heart disease prediction proposed in recent studies, but most of them focus only on feature preprocessing, some focus on feature selection, and some only on improving the predictive accuracy. In this study, we focus on every aspect that may have an influence on the final performance of the system, i.e., to avoid overfitting and underfitting problems or to solve network configuration issues and optimization problems. We introduce an optimally configured and improved deep belief network named OCI-DBN to solve these problems and improve the performance of the system. We used the Ruzzo-Tompa approach to remove those features that are not contributing enough to improve system performance. To find an optimal network configuration, we proposed a stacked genetic algorithm that stacks two genetic algorithms to give an optimally configured DBN. An analysis of a RBM and DBN trained is performed to give an insight how the system works. Six metrics were used to evaluate the proposed method, including accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, precision, F1 score, and Matthew's correlation coefficient. The experimental results are compared with other state-of-the-art methods, and OCI-DBN shows a better performance. The validation results assure that the proposed method can provide reliable recommendations to heart disease patients by improving the accuracy of heart disease predictions by up to 94.61%. © 2020 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
