Infant botulism is a rare infectious disease occurring in infants in which Clostridium botulinum colonize the large intestine and being to produce botulinum neurotoxin directly in the gut. As these neurotoxins interfere with cholinergic nervous transmission, patients initially present with evident of loss of muscle tone (e.g. constipation, ptosis, feeding difficulties) which may progress to more serious symptoms such as respiratory arrest and flaccid paralysis.L39819,L39824
BabyBIG (human-derived botulism immunoglobulin) was approved for use by the FDA in 2003L39814 and has since been used to treat more than 2100 cases of infant botulism.L39834 It is produced and distributed by the Calfornia Department of Public Health's Infant Botulism Treatment and Prevention ProgramL39829 and comprises IgG antibodies derived from pooled adult plasma from persons immunized with recombinant botulinum vaccine who have high titers of neutralizing antibodies against botulinum toxin.L39814
Fitur visualisasi ini dikembangkan menggunakan pendekatan Graph Theory untuk memetakan hubungan polifarmasi dan molekuler. Entitas (Obat, Target, Gen) direpresentasikan sebagai Simpul (Nodes), sedangkan hubungan biologisnya sebagai Sisi (Edges).
drugbank-id dan name pada skema XML DrugBank.targets/target yang memuat polipeptida sasaran.gene-name dan varian snp-effects.Tata letak grafik menggunakan algoritma Force-Directed Graph (Barnes-Hut). Model fisika ini menerapkan gaya tolak-menolak antar simpul (Gravitasi: -3000) agar tidak tumpang tindih, serta gaya pegas (Spring: 0.04) pada garis penghubung untuk fleksibilitas interaksi.
