Positive behavioral responses to attractive faces have led neuroscientists investigate underlying neural mechanisms in a "reward circuit" that includes brain regions innervated by dopamine pathways. Using male ranging from extremely unattractive, disfigured ones, this study is the first demonstrate heightened both rewarding and aversive numerous areas of putative reward circuit. Parametric analyses employing orthogonal linear nonlinear regressors revealed positive effects anterior cingulate...
Background Arterial spin labeling (ASL) is an emerging MRI technique for noninvasive measurement of cerebral blood flow (CBF) that has been used to show hemodynamic changes in the brains people with Alzheimer's disease (AD). CBF have measured using positron emission tomography (PET) across AD spectrum, but ASL showed limited success measuring variations preclinical phase AD, where amyloid β (Aβ) plaques accumulate decades prior symptom onset. Purpose To investigate relationship between by...
Epigallocatechin gallate loaded melanin nanoparticles ([email protected]) have been prepared aiming for the development of an eco-friendly food preservation nanomaterials with good thermal stability, antioxidant and antibacterial activity. The [email protected] presents a uniform well dispersed spherical structure average diameter below 100 nm. analysis results show that exist in form macromolecular polymers rather than crystalline structure, EGCG was onto MNPs via hydrophobic interaction...
<title>Abstract</title> <bold>Background</bold> Allele-specific expression (ASE) analysis is a crucial tool for validating quantitative trait loci (eQTLs), identifying causal variants associated with complex traits, and investigating the genetic mechanisms underlying heterosis. In this study, we characterized ASE across 35 tissues using 7,532 publicly available RNA-seq datasets. Additionally, explored driving through integration epigenomic data examined relationship between dominance effects...
Abstract Arterial spin labeling has relatively low spatial resolution, which affects cerebral blood flow measurements by partial volume effect occurring at tissue interfaces, e.g., between gray matter, white and cerebrospinal fluid. This can be an important source of quantification error. To correct for in arterial labeling, a linear regression method was recently proposed. Because this assumes that magnetization are constant over n 2 × 1 kernel, inherent blurring is introduced. In study,...
The objective of this study was to investigate voxel-wise functional connectomics using arterial spin labeling (ASL) magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Since ASL signal has an intrinsically low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), the role denoising is evaluated; in particular, a novel method, dual-tree complex wavelet transform (DT-CWT) combined with nonlocal means (NLM) algorithm implemented and evaluated. Simulations were conducted evaluate performance proposed method images detecting networks...
Abstract Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) investigations of resting‐state functional connectivity (RSFC) typically use blood oxygen level‐dependent (BOLD)‐weighted because its ability to provide whole‐brain coverage and high temporal resolution. Single‐shot 3D gradient‐ spin‐echo (GRASE) arterial spin labeling (ASL) offers a number potential advantages for RSFC measurements, such as more direct quantitative correlate neural activity lower variability across subjects; however, current...
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the leading causes death and disability in children adolescents. Young TBI patients suffer from gross motor deficits, such as postural control which can severely compromise their daily life activities. However, little attention has been devoted to uncovering underlying white matter changes response training TBI. In this study, we used longitudinal fixel-based analysis (FBA), an advanced diffusion imaging technique, investigate effect a balance program...
Arterial Spin Labeling (ASL) is an MRI technique to measure cerebral blood flow directly and noninvasively, thus provides a more direct quantitative correlate of neural activity than blood-oxygen-level-dependent fMRI. A 3D gradient spin-echo (GRASE) sequence capable enhancing signal-to-noise ratio, has been shown be very useful readout module for ASL sequences. Nonetheless, the introduction significant blurring in its single-shot version, due T2 decay along partition dimension, compromises...
Changes in connectivity of white matter fibers remote to a stroke lesion, suggestive structural connectional diaschisis, may impact on clinical impairment and recovery after stroke. However, until recently, we have not had tract-specific techniques map changes tracts vivo humans enable investigation potential mechanisms such changes. Our aim was identify quantify that are affected from lesion investigate the associations between reductions impaired touch discrimination function stroke.We...
Objective: Cervical cancer is one of the two biggest killers women and early detection cervical precancerous lesions can effectively improve survival rate patients. Manual diagnosis by combining colposcopic images clinical examination results main method at present. Developing an intelligent algorithm based on artificial intelligence inevitable trend to solve objectification quality efficiency diagnosis.Approach: A multimodal fusion convolutional neural network (CMF-CNN) was proposed for...
Emotion research is guided both by the view that emotions are points in a dimensional space, such as valence or approach-withdrawal, and discrete categories. We determined whether effective connectivity of amygdala with medial orbitofrontal cortex (MOFC) lateral (LOFC) differentiates perception emotion faces manner consistent and/or categorical view. Greater from left MOFC to differentiated positive neutral expressions negatively valenced angry, disgust, fear expressions. right LOFC...
Purpose: Quantitative computed tomography (QCT) techniques, focusing on airway anatomy and emphysema, may help to detect early structural changes of COPD disease. This retrospective study aims identify high-risk participants by using QCT measurements. Patients Methods: We enrolled 140 from the Second Affiliated Hospital Shenyang Medical College who completed inspiratory high-resolution CT scans, pulmonary function tests (PFTs), clinical characteristics recorded. They were diagnosed Non-COPD...
Abstract Advances in graph theory have provided a powerful tool to characterize brain networks. In particular, functional networks at group‐level great appeal gain further insight into complex function, and assess changes across disease conditions. These group networks, however, often two main limitations. First, they are popularly estimated by directly averaging individual that compromised confounding variations. Secondly, been mainly through Pearson cross‐correlation, without taking...
