Background: N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) Lamps receptor hypofunction has been implicated in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia and its associated neurocognitive impairments.The high rate of cigarette smoking in schizophrenia raises questions about how nicotine modulates putative NMDA receptor hypofunction in the illness.Accordingly, we examined th
Abstract Background The inflammatory disease periodontitis results in tooth loss and can even lead to diseases of the whole body if not treated.Gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) reflects the condition of the gingiva and contains proteins transuded from serum or cells at inflamed sites.In this study, we aimed to discover potential protein biomarkers f
Tools based on machine learning (so-called artificial intelligence, AI) are increasingly being developed to diagnose malignant melanoma in dermatology.This contribution discusses (1) three scenarios for the Lamps use of AI in different medical settings, (2) shifts in competencies from dermatologists to non-specialists and empowered patients, (3) re
Secure computation is a powerful cryptographic tool that encompasses the evaluation of any multivariate function with arbitrary inputs from mutually distrusting parties.The oblivious transfer primitive serves is a basic building block for the general task of secure multi-party computation.Therefore, Sippy Cups analyzing the security in the universa
