Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is known to be associated with a spectrum of gastroduodenal diseases. We studied the association H. virulence markers cytotoxin-associated gene (cagA) and vacuolating cytotoxin (vacA) alleles in patients non ulcer dyspepsia (NUD), gastric (GU), carcinoma (GC) duodenal (DU). established by both rapid urease test histology were studied. The cagA vacA allelic status was determined polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Sequencing i1 i2 PCR product carried...

Background: Stroke and myocardial infarction (MI) are both life-threatening diseases of vascular origin with a tendency to recur. In conditions, risk recurrence is reduced through similar drug regimens. Aim: To determine if compliance prescribed medication after stroke or MI was in the two populations. Setting Design: Retrospective data collection cross-sectional telephonic survey patients discharged from single academic medical center. Materials Methods: Adult consecutively over two-year...

A noninvasive method to estimate input function directly from H215O brain PET data for measurement of cerebral blood flow (CBF) was proposed in this study. The image derived (IDIF) extracted the time-activity curves (TAC) major arteries at skull base dynamic data. primordial IDIF showed almost same radioactivity as arterial (AIF) sampled plateau part later phase, but significantly lower initial phase compared with that AIF-TAC. To correct IDIF, a dispersion applied and two constants...

This paper proposes a simplified structure of microcontroller based mechanical ventilator integrated with Bag-Valve-Musk (BVM) ventilation mechanism. Here, an Ambu bag is operated computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) arm that commanded via and manual switches by sending control signal to the system according this signal, simultaneously compresses decompresses bag. It self-inflating like one-way valve around its inlet outlet corner. By compressing it delivers air relaxing, takes from...

The fatty plaque deposits narrow artery walls leading to the heart Ischemic Heart Disease (IHD). For that, flowing of blood is reduced. Hyperpiesia polygenic disorder, drug addiction, and lipidemia are initiators tachycardia. From healthcare unit, 835 IHD patients data with 14 features like Age, Sex, Diabetes Mellitus (DM), Electrocardiograph (ECG), Exercise Tolerance Test (ETT) etc. have been collected. By implementing artificial neural network (ANN) techniques in our collected dataset risk...

Wistar-Furth rats (WF) do not develop hypertension when treated with salt and mineralocorticoids therefore may be useful for investigating the mechanisms of mineralocorticoid action hypertension. In present studies, we determined vascular renal responses WF to mineralocorticoids. Control Wistar (W) developed deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA)-NaCl dexamethasone hypertension, whereas only. Aldosterone treatment smooth muscle cells cultured from resulted in 82% less upregulation angiotensin II...

A new method of delay time estimation was proposed to measure precise cerebral blood flow (CBF) and arterial-to-capillary volume (V 0) using 15O-water PET. Nineteen patients with unilateral arterial stenoocclusive lesions were studied evaluate hemodynamic status before treatment. The each pixel calculated least squares fitting an input curve adjusted the internal carotid artery counts at skull base. Pixel-by-pixel provided a map image that could be used for calculation CBF V 0 one-tissue...

Electromyography (EMG) for suspected cervical or lumbosacral root compression is often negative, producing expense and physical discomfort that could have been avoided. To improve patient selection testing, we sought to identify clinical features would accurately predict presence of radiculopathy on EMG.Adult patients consecutively evaluated at an academic neurophysiology laboratory were prospectively enrolled. Presence suggesting disease (neck back pain, dermatomal pain numbness, myotomal...

Genes associated with the Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) plasticity region may play a role in pathogenesis of H. pylori. We compared genes jhp0940, jhp0947, and jhp0986 isolates from patients different gastroduodenal diseases age groups.The hyperplasticity were studied by PCR. also evaluated whether these related to cytotoxin-associated gene (cagA) histology findings.Of patient cohort, 71 (62%) positive for 67 (59%) 12 (10%) jhp0986, 69 (60%) cagA. jhp0940 (n=18, 67%) jhp0947 (n=23, 85%)...

Epilepsy is one of the most predominant disorders neurology that affects overall population, especially people living in developing countries. The hospitals and diagnostic centers normally use manual techniques for identification epilepsy. Diagnostic accuracy mostly depend on expertise technician. Researchers around world are utilizing different methods such as decision tree, support vector machine, artificial neural network, convolutional etc. automatic detection classification epileptic...

To calculate the specific binding ratio (SBR) appropriately in dopamine transporter (DAT) imaging, a method for extracting striatal volume of interest (VOI) was developed. This study included 200 patients (72 ± 10 years) who were suspected parkinsonian syndromes (PS) or dementia with Lewy body (DLB). The divided into three groups PS dopaminergic degeneration, DLB and non-PS after [123I]ioflupane (FP-CIT) SPECT clinical follow-up. image data reconstructed CT attenuation correction scatter...

To clarify the differences in hemodynamic status between atherosclerotic steno-occlusive lesions (SOL) and moyamoaya disease (MMD), parameters were compared using 15O-PET. Twenty-four patients with unilateral SOL (67 ± 11 y) eighteen MMD (33 16 assigned to this study. divided into twelve six bilateral lesions. All underwent 15O-PET measure cerebral blood flow (CBF), volume (CBV), oxygen extraction fraction (OEF), metabolic rate (CMRO2). Acetazolamide was administered after baseline scan...

Type-II dilemma zones are the segment of roadway approaching an intersection where drivers have difficulty deciding to stop or proceed at onset circular yellow indication. Signalized safety is improved when correctly identified and steps taken reduce likelihood that vehicles caught in such zones. This research purports using driving simulator as a means collect driver response data indication valid methodology augment our analysis decisions reactions made within zone. The obtained was...

Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) was first introduced in the 1990'. It utilizes concept of interferometry to create a cross-sectional map retina., accurate within 10–15 microns. Identifying actual diseases occurring retina layer., is challenging task. There exist several automated techniques for disease classification like image processing., deep learning. Unfortunately., these often produce error., lower precision., excessive memory localization., inefficiency computation., further...
