Methods: Our deep learning model, called AnatomyNet, segments OARs from head and neck CT images in an end-to-end fashion, receiving whole-volume HaN as input generating masks of all interest one shot. AnatomyNet is built upon the popular 3D U-net architecture, but extends it three important ways: 1) a new encoding scheme to allow auto-segmentation on instead local patches or subsets slices, 2) incorporating squeeze-and-excitation residual blocks layers for better feature representation, 3)...

Somatic mutations of DNMT3A gene have recently been reported in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). We examined the entire coding sequences by high-resolution melting analysis sequencing Chinese patients with malignancies. R882 were found 12/182 AML 4/51 MDS, but not either 79 chronic (CML), or 57 myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), 4 monomyelocytic leukemia. No other detected all patients. associated old age more frequently present monoblastic (M4 M5, 7/52)...

In this work, we propose to resolve the issue existing in current deep learning based organ segmentation systems that they often produce results do not capture overall shape of target and lack smoothness. Since there is a rigorous mapping between Signed Distance Map (SDM) calculated from object boundary contours binary map, exploit feasibility SDM directly medical scans. By converting task into predicting an SDM, show our proposed method retains superior performance has better smoothness...

The fracture-cavity carbonate reservoir in Tahe oilfield is buried deep (more than 5000 m). has low permeability, strong heterogeneity, large size, diverse forms of connectivity, and complex spatial distribution. In conventional water flooding, it difficult to improve oil recovery effectively because small flood sweep injection pressure. Pressure flooding a new technique that can change the pore space. Combined with an displacement agent, pressure expected rate reservoirs. this paper,...

Purpose Radiation therapy (RT) is a common treatment for head and neck (HaN) cancer where therapists are often required to manually delineate boundaries of the organs-at-risks (OARs). The radiation planning time-consuming as each computed tomography (CT) volumetric data set typically consists hundreds thousands slices needs be individually inspected. Automated anatomical segmentation provides way speed up improve reproducibility planning. Previous work on primarily based atlas registrations,...

Abstract The NAD+-dependent deacetylase and mono-ADP-ribosyl transferase SIRT6 stabilizes the genome by promoting DNA double strand break repair, thereby acting as a tumor suppressor. However, whether regulates nucleotide excision repair (NER) remains unknown. Here, we showed that was recruited to sites of UV-induced damage stimulated damage. Mechanistic studies further indicated interacted with DDB2, major sensor initiating global NER (GG-NER), interaction enhanced upon UV irradiation....

Traditionally, straggering the primaries of double-sided permanent magnet linear synchronous motor (DS-PMLSM) is beneficial in helping to reduce detent force caused by longitudinal end effect, but leading a reduction average thrust. To overcome this disadvantage, paper provides novel DS-PMLSM, which adopts structure staggering two and rearranging windings. First, characteristics voltage are analyzed theoretically verified finite element (FEM) simulations. The inductance, thrust, normal...

The increasing prevalence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) worldwide indicates the urgent need to develop novel and effective treatment strategies. Betulinic acid (BA), a naturally occurring plant-derived pentacyclic triterpenoid, has an outstanding effect in improving metabolism. However, pharmacological action mechanism BA NAFLD remain unclear. Here, we show that BA-treated high-fat diet mice methionine-choline deficient diet-fed are resistant hepatic steatosis when compared...

Abstract Cellular reprogramming is an emerging strategy for delaying the aging processes. However, a number of challenges, including impaired genome integrity and decreased pluripotency induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) derived from old donors, may hinder their potential clinical applications. The longevity gene, Sirtuin 6 (SIRT6), functions in multiple biological processes such as maintenance regulation somatic cell reprogramming. Here, first time, we demonstrate that MDL‐800, recently...
