Background: Longitudinal measures of viral load (VL) are critical in monitoring the HIV status. While multiple lab indicators exist for VL, research on clustering historical/longitudinal VL is limited. Analyzing longitudinal patterns rather than aggregated offers deeper insights into This study uses functional data to classify and characterize each cluster by demographics, comorbidities, social behaviors, CD4 count. Methods: Adult PWH diagnosed from 2005 2015 South Carolina with a 5‐year...
Virtual reality technology has been widely applied in the field of mental health research. However, to date, no study employed bibliometric methods systematically analyze application virtual health. By searching Web Science Core Collection, we have summarized top 100 cited papers this and conducted first on using CiteSpace. The results indicate that area received considerable attention. United States stands out as most influential country. University London Emory are leading contributing...
This study aimed to determine whether adding pointwise encoding time reduction with radial acquisition (PETRA) images conventional magnetic resonance (MR) imaging improves the depiction and characterization of traumatic fractures in pediatric patients. Twenty-nine subjects a control group twenty individuals without were included. Two independent observers assessed MR, PETRA, combined MRI + PETRA images, documenting presence fractures, bone fragments, callus formation, displacement, size,...
This study investigates the association between Weekend Warrior (WW) pattern and risk of anxiety among American adults, offering insights into a more flexible exercise strategy for individuals with limited time regular during weekdays. We analyzed data from 2007–2012 National Health Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) to examine relationship different physical activity (PA) patterns anxiety. Multivariate logistic regression, subgroup interaction, restricted cubic spline analysis (RCS),...
Early and accurate severity assessment of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) based on computed tomography (CT) images offers a great help to the estimation intensive care unit event clinical decision treatment planning. To augment labeled data improve generalization ability classification model, it is necessary aggregate from multiple sites. This task faces several challenges including class imbalance between mild severe infections, domain distribution discrepancy sites, presence...
Abstract To investigate the feasibility of histogram analysis with computed tomography angiography (CTA) in distinguishing between soft tissue sarcomas and benign tumors. Fourty nine patients (23 men, mean age = 44.3 years, range 25–64) pathologically-confirmed sarcoma (n 24) or tumors 25) lower extremities undergoing CTA for tumor evaluation were retrospectively analyzed. Two radiologists separately performed analyses CT density images by drawing a region interest (ROI). The 10th (P10),...
Abstract Objective The COVID-19 pandemic has profoundly impacted mental health worldwide, particularly among vulnerable populations such as people living with HIV (PLWH). However, large-scale, real-world data on care utilization and associated factors PLWH remain limited. This study leveraged electronic records (EHR) Basics survey from the All of Us program to explore during pandemic. Methods Using a retrospective cohort design, we identified included 4,575 through computational phenotyping...
Ischemic acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication during inpatient hospitalization, and often induces lung (ALI). A lot of studies have concentrated on the relevance between AKI ALI, but underlying mechanisms AKI- associated ALI remained unclear until now. One reason that evidence ultrastructural pathology AKI-associated has been scarce needed to be accumulated. The aims present study are observe changes, reveal leukocyte trafficking induced by ischemic in rats. For this purpose...
Sepsis is a systemic inflammatory response due to infection, resulting in organ dysfunction. Timely targeted interventions can improve prognosis. Inflammation plays crucial role the process of sepsis. To identify potential sepsis early, we developed and validated nomogram model simple risk scoring for predicting critically ill patients.The medical records adult patients admitted our intensive care unit (ICU) from August 2017 December 2020 were analyzed. Patients randomly divided into...
Ankylosing spondylitis (AS), which primarily affects the sacroiliac joints, spine, and enthuses, is a chronic inflammatory rheumatic disorder. Acute anterior uveitis most common ophthalmologic involvement, whereas optic neuritis (ON) rarely coexists with AS.[1] ON an immune-mediated inflammation of nerve, could be initiated symptom multiple sclerosis (MS) or neuromyelitis optica (NMO). Bilateral simultaneous long enhanced nerve lesions in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was considered as...
People with HIV (PWH) are at an elevated risk of developing severe COVID-19 outcomes because compromised immunity and more comorbidities. However, existing literature suggests a lower rate COVID-testing among PWH. This study aimed to explore the temporal trend county-level testing multi-level predictors ever-testing PWH in South Carolina (SC). Leveraging linked statewide datasets, we defined population as all adult (18 + years) who were alive on March 2020 living SC. record between October...
Abstract This study explored individual- and county-level risk factors of late presentation with advanced disease (LPAD) among people HIV (PWH) their longer delay time from infection to diagnosis in South Carolina (SC), using SC statewide Enhanced HIV/AIDS Reporting System (eHARS). LPAD was defined as having an AIDS within three months initial diagnosis, estimated CD4 depletion model. 3,733 (41.88%) out 8,913 adult PWH diagnosed 2005 2019 were LPAD, the median 13.04 years. Based on...
Sexual and gender minorities (SGMs) are at higher risk of HIV incidence compared to their heterosexual cisgender counterparts. Despite the high disease burden among SGMs, there was limited data on whether they virologic failure, which may lead potential progression increased transmission risk. The All Us (AoU) Research Program, a national community-engaged program aiming improve health facilitate equity in United States by partnering with one million participants, provides promising resource...
Structural racism contributes to geographical inequalities in pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) coverage the United States (US). This study aims investigate county-level variability PrEP utilization across diverse dimensions of structural racism.
