26 [95% confidence interval CI 0.19 to 0.33]). Currently receiving treatment (β=-3.05 [95% CI -5.25 to -0.85), disability (β=-0.08 [95% CI -0.15 to -0.01]) and social support (moderate support β=-2.27 [95% CI -3.66 to -0.89] and strong support β=-2.87 [95% CI -5.35 to -0.38]) were significantly associated with better QOL. High levels of depression and low QOL were found among patients with lymphoedema due the three NTDs in Ethiopia.

However, in predicting the disease type and disease-gene associations, scholars face two essential challenges, namely the vast number of existing variants and the existence of variants which are recognized as variant of uncertain significance (VUS). To tackle these challenges, we propose algorithms to assign a significance to each gene rather than each variant, describing its degree of pathogenicity. Since the interpreters identified most of the variants as VUS, most of the gene scores were identified as uncertain significance. To predict the uncertain significance scores, we design two matrix factorization-based models the common latent space model uses genomics variant data as well as heterogeneous clinical data, while the single-matrix factorization model can be used when heterogeneous clinical data are unavailable. We have managed to show that the models successfully predict the uncertain significance scores with low error and high accuracy. Moreover, to evaluate the effectiveness of our novel input features, we train five different multi-label classifiers including a feedforward neural network with the same feature set and show they all achieve high accuracy as the main impact of our approach comes from the features.

For this, Bacopa monnieri, Camellia sinensis, Withania somnifera and Andrographis paniculata samples were extracted with modified solid-phase extraction (SPE) and the PAH were quantified using liquid chromatography coupled to fluorescence detector. Piceatannol Purification of herbal extract using hexane and acetone in the ratio of 11 followed by treatment with QuEChERS salt (6 g MgSO4 and 1.5 g sodium acetate) improved the recovery rate of PAH. Silica SPE, which accomplishes solvent exchange to hexane by cleanup method, was developed to reduce the matrix effect and quality of the result obtained was increased. The developed method can be used for regular monitoring and analysis of PAH in natural extracts so as to prevent contamination.Patients with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) are susceptible to the respiratory infections and might be at a heightened risk of poor clinical outcomes upon contracting coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). In the face of the COVID-19 pandemic, the potential associations of SMA with the susceptibility to and prognostication of COVID-19 need to be clarified. We documented an SMA case who contracted COVID-19 but only developed mild-to-moderate clinical and radiological manifestations of pneumonia, which were relieved by a combined antiviral and supportive treatment. We then reviewed a cohort of patients with SMA who had been living in the Hubei province since November 2019, among which the only 1 out of 56 was diagnosed with COVID-19 (1.79%, 1/56). Bioinformatic analysis was carried out to delineate the potential genetic crosstalk between SMN1 (mutation of which leads to SMA) and COVID-19/lung injury-associated pathways. Protein-protein interaction analysis by STRING suggested that loss-of-function of SMN1 might modulate COVID-19 pathogenesis through CFTR, CXCL8,
