<h3>BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:</h3> Brain MR imaging is routinely performed in the work-up of suspected PD, yet its role essentially limited to exclusion other pathologies. We a pattern-recognition analysis based on DTI data detect subjects with PD at individual level. <h3>MATERIALS METHODS:</h3> included 40 consecutive patients Parkinsonism suggestive who had 3T, brain <sup>123</sup>I ioflupane SPECT (DaTSCAN), and extensive neurologic testing including follow-up (17 PD: age range, 67.8 ± 6.7...
Although cross-sectional diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) studies revealed significant white matter changes in mild cognitive impairment (MCI), the utility of this technique predicting further decline is debated. Thirty-five healthy contro
To test whether susceptibility-weighted magnetic resonance imaging at baseline may help predict cognitive decline.This prospective study was approved by the institutional review board, and written informed consent obtained from all participants. Thirty-five healthy control subjects 69 patients with mild impairment were included. Patients underwent neuropsychologic follow-up after 1 year (40 stable impairment, 27 progressive two lost to follow-up). Cerebral microhemorrhages visually analyzed...
In acute stroke it is no longer sufficient to detect simply ischemia, but also try evaluate reperfusion/recanalization status and predict eventual hemorrhagic transformation. Arterial spin labeling (ASL) perfusion may have advantages over contrast-enhanced perfusion-weighted imaging (cePWI), susceptibility weighted (SWI) has an intrinsic sensitivity paramagnetic effects in addition its ability small areas of bleeding hemorrhage. We want determine here if their combined use follow-up at 3T...
<h3>BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:</h3> MCI was recently subdivided into sd-aMCI, sd-fMCI, and md-aMCI. The current investigation aimed to discriminate between subtypes by using DTI. <h3>MATERIALS METHODS:</h3> Sixty-six prospective participants were included: 18 with 13 35 Statistics included group comparisons TBSS individual classification SVMs. <h3>RESULTS:</h3> group-level analysis revealed a decrease in FA md-aMCI versus sd-aMCI an extensive bilateral, right-dominant network, more pronounced...
Acculturation and acculturative stress are examined as predictors of alcohol use among Asian immigrants, using the 2004 National Latino Americans Survey (NLAAS). Separate regression analyses were conducted for Chinese (n = 600), Filipino 508), Vietnamese 520) immigrants. Alcohol varied three groups. English proficiency was associated with drinking all Family conflict General discrimination Results underscore acculturation being contributors to consumption, importance considering...
This paper aims to determine the effect of metal corrosion on maximum deflection I-section steel beams subjected sudden constant force in a short duration. To calculate this type deflection, model was developed and subsequently combined with model, considering beam’s cross-section stiffness reduction. A series investigations beam different corrosive environments were carried out. The results showed that varied from 6.63% (in rural environments) 29.62% marine after 100 years. These findings...
Given the growth in number of older Chinese immigrants United States and importance family support culture, this study examines how supportive negative relationships with members (children spouse) influence depressive symptom severity among population.Using data from Population Study Elderly Chicago, we carried out multivariate binomial regression analysis using a sample 3,159 immigrants. Depressive was measured Patient Health Questionnaire. Intergenerational marital were characterized...
ACADEMIC EMERGENCY MEDICINE 2012; 19:102–105 © 2011 by the Society for Academic Emergency Medicine Abstract Objectives: The primary objectives were to assess whether electronically delivered prescriptions lead reduced pharmacy wait time, improved patient satisfaction, and compliance with prescriptions. Secondary included determining other reasons noncompliance if there was an association between prescription subsequent physician emergency department (ED) visits. Methods: In this prospective...
Abstract Most Asian American elders are immigrants to the United States, and sociocultural factors such as English proficiency immigration status prominent in their lives. Using data from California Health Interview Surveys focus on Americans over age 50, this study seeks identify interethnic differences, effects of way older access healthcare. The results indicated that ethnicity, proficiency, have significant independent Americans' care. Implications for social work's role addressing...
Abstract This study reports the demographic characteristics of six groups Asian American elders (Chinese, Korean, Indian, Filipino, Vietnamese, and Japanese) in a regional probability sample (n = 407). The findings confirm heterogeneity elderly population, who differ terms demographics, immigration acculturation experiences, language proficiency, educational attainment, financial status. Findings point to importance taking careful consideration specific needs different population when...
