Background Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has widely spread all over the world since beginning of 2020. It is desirable to develop automatic and accurate detection COVID-19 using chest CT. Purpose To a fully framework detect CT evaluate its performance. Materials Methods In this retrospective multicenter study, deep learning model, neural network (COVNet), was developed extract visual features from volumetric scans for COVID-19. community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) other non-pneumonia...
Abstract Background The ongoing new coronavirus pneumonia (Corona Virus Disease 2019, COVID-19) outbreak is spreading in China, but it has not yet reached its peak. Five million people emigrated from Wuhan before lockdown, potentially representing a source of virus infection. Determining case distribution and correlation with population emigration the early stage epidemic great importance for warning prevention future outbreaks. Methods official report on COVID-19 was collected as January...
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND The ongoing worldwide outbreak of the 2019-nCoV is markedly similar to severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) 17 years ago. During 2002-2003 SARS outbreak, healthcare workers formed a special population patients. Although virus-specific IgG play important roles in virus neutralization and prevention against future infection, limited information available regarding long term persistence after infection with SARS-like coronavirus. METHODS A long-term prospective cohort...

The ongoing large-scale pneumonia outbreak in China is caused by the 2019-nCoV. As many aspects of new virus are similar to SARS 2003, knowledge and lessons SARS-CoV valuable for responding 2019-nCoV outbreak. Using epidemiological surveys analyses from early stage outbreak, we assessed compared characteristics those two outbreaks. Like SARS-CoV, has a high human-to-human transmission capability healthcare workers family members risk populations. reported case data so far, cumulative counts...
Objective: There are few cost-effectiveness analyses that model alcohol outlet zoning policies. This study determines the potential decreases in homicides, disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), and victim criminal justice costs associated with four policy options would reduce access Baltimore. Method: analysis used associations between on-premise (incidence rate ratio [IRR] = 1.41), off-premise (IRR 1.76), combined on- density 1.07) homicide We determined change level of could occur...
Abstract BACKGROUNDS The ongoing new coronavirus (2019-nCoV) pneumonia outbreak is spreading in China and has not reached its peak. Five millions of people had emigrated from Wuhan before the city lockdown, which potentially represent a source virus spreaders. Case distribution correlation with population emigration early epidemic are great importance for warning prevention future outbreak. METHODS officially reported cases 2019-nCoV were collected as January 30, 2020. Time location...
Emerging infectious diseases represent a serious threat for human public health worldwide.[1,2] The 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) caused pneumonia outbreak, which is spreading around the country and has affected 32 provinces regions of China as January 27, 2020.[3,4] Countries outside China, including Japan, United States, Thailand, South Korea, have also reported cases imported from other countries.[5] With joint efforts Chinese scientists, workers, related departments, pathogen...
This study aimed to determine the frequency of antibodies Neospora caninum in domestic sheep raised Henan province, central China. Serum samples from 779 were collected March 2015 May 2016, and N. evaluated using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The results showed overall IgG positive rate 7.32% (57/779). risk factors significantly related seropositivity age, presence dogs, rearing system. is first report infection associated
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence and potential risk factors associated with skin lesions resulting from use medical disinfectants personal protective equipment (PPE) among epidemic prevention workers (including healthcare professionals, temporary sampling site workers, community members volunteers) during Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic lockdown period in China. Methods: We conducted a survey SARS-CoV-2 Gaojing town...
To assess the value of biparametric magnetic resonance imaging (bpMRI) for detecting and ruling out prostate cancer in patients with elevated prostate-specific antigen (PSA). The basic information bpMRI images enrolled who took transperineal template saturate biopsy were retrospectively collected analysis. Based on our results, we found that free/total PSA, PI-RADS score independent risk factors PCa (p < .05), PSA density, csPCa .05). threshold 3 could achieve highest Yonder index predicting...
The distributed transmission line management mode has the advantages of reducing amount data processed by center, emergency processing time and improving efficiency, so as to improve operation reliability line. This paper presents concept smart tower based on architecture regional autonomous system for lines, defines topology functional framework tower. By calculating accuracy sensing with different numbers devices installed line, layout principle is studied. Moreover, linkage scheme between...
Background Road traffic injury has been a second leading cause of death in children unintentional injuries China. Little is known about on bicycle rural This study aims to investigate the perception students, parents and teachers injury. Methods Qualitative, exploratory, descriptive study. Criterion sampling. Data collected between April 2009 June through semi-structured focus groups, with topic guide. 104 participants (47 male/57 female) from Liangying County (n=68), Fuyang (n=36), which...
In recent years, researchers have identified seven major viruses implicated in oncogenesis, spanning across four Baltimore virological classifications.Thus, are known contributors to 19 human cancers, as well 10 chronic comorbidities reduce quality of life among affected patient populations.This etiology, though minor other sources carcinogenesis, remains an interesting area research for oncologists and molecular biologists its potential understanding the complex role exogenous oncogenes...
Abstract Background: Whether androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is associated with an increased risk of developing cardiovascular related disease poorly defined. The aim the present meta‐analysis to explore relationship between ADT and (CVD). Method: For this systematic review meta-analysis, we searched databases until April 2019 for randomized controlled trial (RCT) or observational studies that reported data on administration (CVD) incidence. was evaluated through estimate relative ratio...
Abstract Background : Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is widely being applied in men who suffered from prostate cancer, our aim to evaluate whether ADT associated with an excess risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Method Studies comparing the incidence CVD between group and control were identified through literature search electronic databases (Pubmed, Embase, Web Science) until July 2019 only observational studies randomized controlled trials (RCT) included. The estimating relative...
Abstract A discrete dynamic model for human epidemics was developed in present study. The included major parameters as transmission strength and its decline parameters, mean incubation period, hospitalization time, non-hospitalization daily mortality, recovery rate, proportion, etc. Sensitivity analysis of the indicated total cumulative cases significantly increased with initial strength, time. decreased strength’s linearly mortality rate. In a certain range, period. demonstrated that change...
