Carotid artery stenosis without transient ischemic attack (TIA) or stroke is considered as “asymptomatic.” However, recent studies have demonstrated that these asymptomatic carotid (aCAS) patients had cognitive impairment in tests of executive function, psychomotor speed, and memory, indicating “asymptomatic” may not be truly asymptomatic. In this study, when 19 aCAS compared with 24 healthy controls, showed significantly poorer performance on global cognition, function. By utilizing an...
The early detection and grading of gliomas is important for treatment decision assessment prognosis. Over the last decade numerous automated computer analysis tools have been proposed, which can potentially lead to more reliable reproducible brain tumor diagnostic procedures. In this paper, we used gradient-based features extracted from structural magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI) images depict subtle changes within brains patients with gliomas. Based on gradient features, proposed a novel...
The choice of treatment and prognosis evaluation depend on the accurate early diagnosis brain tumors. Many tumors go undiagnosed or are overlooked by clinicians as a result challenges associated with manually evaluating magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images in clinical practice. In this study, we built computer-aided (CAD) system for glioma detection, grading, segmentation, knowledge discovery based artificial intelligence algorithms. Neuroimages specifically represented using type visual...
Severe (>70% narrowing) asymptomatic carotid stenosis (SACS) is associated with cognitive impairment and future strokes, connectivity basis for the remote brain consequences poorly understood. Here we explored homotopic parenchymal lesions measured by multimodal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) parameters in patients SACS. Twenty-four SACS (19 males/5 females; 64.25 ± 7.18 years), 24 comorbidities-matched controls 67.16 6.10 an independent sample of elderly healthy (39 females/45 males;...
Background: The COVID-19 pandemic is a significant health threat. Health care worker (HCWs) are at risk of infection which may cause high levels psychological distress. aim this study was to investigate the impact on HCWs and factors were associated with these stresses during first outbreak in Shanghai. Methods: Between February 9 21, 2020, total 3,114 frontline from 26 hospitals Shanghai completed an online survey. questionnaire included questions their sociodemographic characteristics, 15...
"Asymptomatic" carotid artery stenosis (aCAS) patients usually have cognitive impairment in the domains of executive, psychomotor speed, and memory function. However, pathophysiology this aCAS is still unclear. In study, amplitude low-frequency fluctuation (ALFF) method was used based on resting-state blood oxygenation level dependent (BOLD) signals, to investigate local brain activity 19 24 healthy controls, aimed explore mechanism. We analyzed intrinsic four individual frequency bands:...
To the Editor: Many well-studied sonographic features have been used clinically to evaluate thyroid nodules for malignancies. Sonographic grayscale proposed by American College of Radiology Thyroid Imaging, Reporting and Data System (TI-RADS) include composition, echogenicity, shape, margin, echogenic foci.[1] Other features, such as vascularity imaging, gradually recognized sonographers. Sustained angiogenesis results in tumor-specific vasculature compared normal tissues context...
Computational modeling has emerged as an indispensable approach to resolve and predict the intricate interplay among many ion channels underlying neuronal excitability.However, simulation results using classic formula-based Hodgkin-Huxley (H-H) model or superior Markov kinetic of often deviate significantly from native cellular signals despite carefully measured parameters.Here we found that filters patch-clamp amplifier not only delayed signals, but also introduced ringing, residual series...
Objective A cross-sectional survey was conducted to investigate difference in job-related satisfaction indexes among staff working at community health-care service centers ( CHSC ) employing appropriate techniques on a trial basis between east and west areas of China. Methods In total, 339 members basis, including good practice medical records management for hypertension , case type 2 diabetes tuberculosis etc. were recruited questionnaire from Tianjin, Jinan Shenzhen China Chengdu Chongqing...
<h3>Background and aims</h3> Teriflunomide sodium (CK8) is the salt of metabolites leflunomide. Leflunomide has been approved for treatment lupus nephritis by CFDA.The aim study was to evaluate therapeutic effect CK8 on course disease in SLE-prone MRL/lpr mice, compared with leflunomide glucocorticoid. <h3>Methods</h3> Ten eleven-weeks-old female mice displaying clinical symptoms SLE were given (20 mg/kg, 30 40 mg/kg) gavage once a day 8 weeks. Control received (30 , Prednisone Acetate (2 or...
Abstract Purpose To determine the diagnostic performance of sonographic finding tumor neovascularization-like patterns and echogenic areas in differentiating papillary carcinomas from benign nodules.Materials methods We prospectively analyzed ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (FNA) thyroid nodules for two features. In total, 299 (evenly distributed vs carcinoma) were evaluated by blinded readers intense small penetrating vessels homogenous mild hyper-echoic within correlated with...
Cartilage repair can greatly alleviate the symptoms of patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA). However, some imaging results suggest that obvious cartilage may receive insignificant or even no improvement in their symptoms. This study aims to explore possible reasons based on structural feature joint and construct models used predict progression 551 subjects from Osteoarthritis Biomarkers Consortium FNIH Project Initiative (OAI) were included divided into training test sets. A total 153...
