Mild subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) affects a large number of people and is known to be risk factor for dyslipidemia. However, whether mild SCH patients should treated with L-thyroxine improve lipid profiles remains controversial. In addition, it also unclear all can benefit from treatment, regardless basal thyrotropin or levels. This study aimed assess the effects replacement therapy on patients.This open-label randomized controlled trial was performed in Ningyang County, Shandong...

Abstract Alcohol dependence is associated with poor sleep quality, which has both been implicated thalamocortical circuits function. To identify the possible roles of these in alcohol‐sleep association, we investigated volume left and right thalamus corresponding resting‐state functional connectivity (RSFC) differences between 15 alcohol‐dependent patients (AD) healthy controls (HC) male participants. The neuroimaging findings were then correlated clinical variables, that is, Use Disorders...

Abstract INTRODUCTION The objective of this study is to investigate the incremental value amyloid positron emission tomography (Aβ‐PET) in a tertiary memory clinic setting China. METHODS A total 1073 patients were offered Aβ‐PET using 18 F‐florbetapir. neurologists determined suspected etiology (Alzheimer's disease [AD] or non‐AD) with percentage estimate their confidence and medication prescription both before after receiving results. RESULTS After disclosure results, etiological diagnoses...

Deep learning has shown impressive diagnostic abilities in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) research recent years. However, although neuropsychological tests play a crucial role screening AD and mild cognitive impairment (MCI), there is still lack of deep algorithms only using such basic methods. This paper proposes novel semi-supervised method test scores scarce labeled data, which introduces difference regularization consistency with pseudo-labeling. A total 188 AD, 402 MCI, 229 normal controls...

Background Anxiety and the physical environment are critical factors influencing frailty among older adults; however, interaction effect of anxiety environment, such as outdoor activity spaces, on has not been examined. This study aimed to investigate spaces identify differences by gender. Methods A total 353 nursing home residents (197 women; 156 men; age ≥ 60 years) from 27 Chinese homes were included in analysis. analyzed using Generalized Disorder Scale FRAIL-NH Scale, respectively....
