Abstract Motivation Microbiome analyses of clinical samples with low microbial biomass are challenging because of the very small quantities of microbial DNA relative to the human host, ubiquitous contaminating DNA in sequencing experiments and the large and rapidly growing microbial reference databases. Results We present computational subtraction-based microbiome discovery (CSMD), a bioinformatics pipeline specifically developed to generate accurate species-level microbiome profiles for clinical samples with low microbial loads. CSMD applies strategies for the maximal elimination of host sequences with minimal loss of microbial signal and effectively detects microorganisms present in the sample with minimal false positives using a stepwise convergent solution. CSMD was benchmarked in a comparative evaluation with other classic tools on previously published well-characterized datasets. It showed higher sensitivity and specificity in host sequence removal and higher specificity in microbial identification, which led to more accurate abundance estimation. All these features are integrated into a free and easy-to-use tool. Additionally, CSMD applied to cell-free plasma DNA showed that microbial diversity within these samples is substantially broader than previously believed.

Abstract Silver nanowires (AgNWs) have attracted attentions form both academia and industry due to their outstanding electronic and optical properties. The AgNW-based devices for various uses were invented in recent years. It is well known that the sizes of AgNWs have a crucial effect on the performance of AgNW-based devices. However, how to synthesize AgNWs with controlled sizes is still unsolved. Researchers reported many methods to synthesize AgNWs with different sizes in the past decade. However, a review that focuses on the synthetic methods of AgNWs is very rare. The aim of this review is to summarize the recent developments that have been achieved with AgNWs, and many procedure details and results and discussions will be provided for practical use.

Abstract Motivation The existence of complex subpopulations of miRNA isoforms, or isomiRs, is well established. While many tools exist for investigating isomiR populations, they differ in how they characterize an isomiR, making it difficult to compare results across different tools. Thus, there is a need for a more comprehensive and systematic standard for defining isomiRs. Such a standard would allow investigation of isomiR population structure in progressively more refined sub-populations, permitting the identification of more subtle changes between conditions and leading to an improved understanding of the processes that generate these differences. Results We developed Jasmine, a software tool that incorporates a hierarchal framework for characterizing isomiR populations. Jasmine is a Java application that can process raw read data in fastq/fasta format, or mapped reads in SAM format to produce a detailed characterization of isomiR populations. Thus, Jasmine can reveal structure not apparent in a standard miRNA-Seq analysis pipeline. Availability and implementation Jasmine is implemented in Java and R and freely available at bitbucket https://bitbucket.org/bipous/jasmine/src/master/.

Abstract Motivation Disease states are distinguished from each other in terms of differing clinical phenotypes, but characteristic molecular features are often common to various diseases. Similarities between diseases can be explained by characteristic gene expression patterns. However, most disease–disease relationships remain uncharacterized. Results In this study, we proposed a novel approach for network-based characterization of disease–disease relationships in terms of drugs and therapeutic targets. We performed large-scale analyses of omics data and molecular interaction networks for 79 diseases, including adrenoleukodystrophy, leukaemia, Alzheimer's disease, asthma, atopic dermatitis, breast cancer, cystic fibrosis and inflammatory bowel disease. We quantified disease–disease similarities based on proximities of abnormally expressed genes in various molecular networks, and showed that similarities between diseases could be explained by characteristic molecular network topologies. Furthermore, we developed a kernel matrix regression algorithm to predict the commonalities of drugs and therapeutic targets among diseases. Our comprehensive prediction strategy indicated many new associations among phenotypically diverse diseases. Supplementary information Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.
