BENTHAM SCIENCE FREE TRIAL IN Nankai University (FREE TRIAL ENDS ON January 17, 2019)
Nankai University is a public research university located in Tianjin, China. It is a Chinese Ministry of Education Class A Double First Class University. It was founded in 1919, by educators Yan Xiu and Zhang Boling.
During the Sino-Japanese War (1937-1945), Nankai University, Peking University and Tsinghua University merged and formed the National Changsha Provisional University, which later moved to Kunming and was renamed the National Southwestern Associated University (西南联大).
Nankai’s alumni include the first Premier of the People’s Republic of China Zhou Enlai, mathematician Shiing-Shen Chern and Nobel laureates Chen NingYang and Tsung-Dao Lee.

EDITOR’S CHOICE ARTICLE – A Machine Learning Prediction Model for Automated Brain Abnormalities Detection
Journal Name: Recent Patents on Computer Science
Author(s): Satyajit Anand*, Sandeep Jaiswal, Pradip Kumar Ghosh.
Graphical Abstract:
Abstract:
Background: The rapid improvement in technology enables an Electroencephalogram (EEG) to detect a diverse range of brain disorders easily. The design of sophisticated signal processing methods for an efficient analysis of the EEG signals is exceptionally essential. Raw EEG signal is contaminated by noise and artefacts that modify the spectral-spatial and temporal information of the signal and renders inaccurate clinical interpretation. Denoising of the signal is the first step to refine the signal quality and identify patient’s mental state from the signal although it is not an easy task because of high dimensionality and complexity of EEG signal. The present study highlights three conditions of the brain namely stroke, brain death, and a healthy state. The primary concern is to detect the most abnormal conditions of the brain, i.e., an EEG with a critical stage.
Method: This paper introduces a neoteric technique for the analysis of EEG signals of the three conditions using filters such as Fuzzy filter and wavelet orthogonal filter to obtain highly accurate resultant signals. Further, the resultant filter is trained in Neural Network for predicting the brain abnormalities. The proposed system is found to be efficient in denoising the EEG waves.
Results: The result shows that the classification accuracy of multiclass EEG dataset achieved and the performance of ANN is high and it was found to be the best validation performance of ANN which is 0.2303.
Conclusion: This paper comprehensively describes the denoising of the EEG signals that will provide accuracy in the diagnosis of the EEG to detect brain disorders. The Fuzzy filter pre-processes the signals by considering the noisy signal by an ideal value in such a way that the desired metric (the filtered output) is reduced. The orthogonal wavelet filter produces a single scaling function and wavelet function. The EEG features are extracted from multiple-level decompositions of EEGs by DWT. Finally, the features are classified using Back propagation artificial neural network that categorizes the EEGs to make the diagnosis easier for the brain abnormalities.

EDITOR’S CHOICE ARTICLE – MR Spectroscopy Findings of the Basal Ganglia in Bipolar Disorders: a Systematic Review
Journal Name: Current Psychiatry Reviews
Author(s): Hanjing Emily Wu*, Tomas Melicher, Bo Cao, Marsal Sanches, Jeffrey A. Stanley, Giovana Zunta-Soares, Benson Mwangi, Jair C. Soares.
Graphical Abstract:
Abstract:
Objective: Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) is a noninvasive in vivo technique extensively applied to assess the levels of neural metabolites in the brain. We aimed to summarize the findings of proton spectroscopy (1H MRS) studies addressing neuro-metabolite findings in the Basal Ganglia (BG) of patients with Bipolar Disorders (BD).
Method: A search of PubMed and Ovid databases was conducted to identify ¹H MRS studies since 1990 reporting N-acetylaspartate (NAA), phosphocholine plus glycerophosphocholine (PC+GPC), and creatine plus phosphocreatine (Cr+PCr) levels in the BG of patients with BD.
Results: Ten original studies were included in this review. Three studies involved BD patients with depressed mood, six studied euthymic BD patients, and one study looked at manic subjects. In depressed BD patients, three studies reported elevated PC+GPC and Cr+PCr levels in the caudate and putamen. NAA levels were found to be elevated in two of the studies, while one reported no change. In euthymic BD patients, five studies reported no group differences with respect to any metabolites, and one study found differences in PC+GPC/Cr+PCr associated with lithium treatment. In mania, lower PC+GPC, lower NAA levels, and increased Cr+PCr levels were described in the caudate of BD patients compared to HC.
Conclusion: This review suggests that abnormalities in NAA, GPC+PC, and Cr+PCr levels in the BG might be associated with mood state among BD patients. In addition, the methodological issues involved in the heterogeneity of 1H MRS findings in BD, as well as the potential role of 1H MRS findings as biomarkers for BD, are discussed.
