Artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms have been developed to detect imaging features on chest X-ray (CXR) with a comprehensive AI model capable of detecting 124 CXR findings being recently developed. The aim this study was evaluate the real-world usefulness as diagnostic assistance device for radiologists.This prospective multicentre involved group radiologists using in their daily reporting workflow report consecutive CXRs and recording feedback level agreement whether significantly...
Non-contrast computed tomography of the brain (NCCTB) is commonly used to detect intracranial pathology but subject interpretation errors. Machine learning can augment clinical decision-making and improve NCCTB scan interpretation. This retrospective detection accuracy study assessed performance radiologists assisted by a deep model compared standalone with that unassisted radiologists.
Abstract. Polyphagous insect herbivores could be expected to perform relatively well in new areas because of their ability exploit alternative resources. We investigated relative abundance patterns the polyphagous thrips species Frankliniella schultzei , which is characteristically found on plants from many different families, establish role host plant a single locality where not indigenous (Brisbane, south‐eastern Queensland, Australia). F. females and larvae were always present flowers...
The neuroprotective effect of estradiol (E2) on basal forebrain cholinergic neurons (BFCNs) has been suggested to occur as a result E2 modulation the neurotrophin system these neurons. present study provides comprehensive examination relationship between and signaling BFCNs by investigating deficiency expression levels receptors (NRs), TrkA, TrkB, p75 BFCNs. number TrkA receptor-expressing choline acetyltransferase-positive was significantly reduced in medial septum (MS) absence E2. A...
This retrospective case-control study evaluated the diagnostic performance of a commercially available chest radiography deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) in identifying presence and position central venous catheters, enteric tubes, endotracheal addition to subgroup analysis different types lines/tubes. A held-out test dataset 2568 studies was sourced from community radiology clinics hospitals Australia USA, then ground-truth labelled for presence, position, type line or tube...
Second‐instar larvae of the phytophagous thrips, Thrips tabaci , consumed significantly more spider mite ( Tetranychus urticae Koch) eggs than did any other T. life stage. We supplemented two plant diets with to assess whether inclusion prey could make up completely for dietary deficiencies in host plant. Therefore, turnip weed Rapistrum rugosum L.) floral tissue (a major breeding ) and cotton vegetative on which populations dwindle) were compared. In both cases, diet reduced developmental...
Abstract We determined the pattern of host plant use Thrips tabaci by surveying wheat and five weed species growing near cotton crops in area centred on Namoi Valley, northern New South Wales. Highest densities T. females larvae were found inflorescences vegetative parts turnip weed, Rapistrum rugosum , lowest wheat, Triticum aestivum . other (Paterson's curse, Echium plantagineum curled dock, Rumex crispus Mayne's pest, Verbena tenuisecta sowthistle, Sonchus oleraceus ) hosted intermediate...
Human malignant mesothelioma is a chemoresistant tumour that develops from mesothelial cells, commonly associated with asbestos exposure. Malignant incidence rates in European countries are still rising and Australia has one of the highest burdens on population basis world. Therapy using systemic delivery free cytotoxic agents many undesirable side effects due to non-selectivity, thus dose-limited which limits its therapeutic potential. Therefore, increasing selectivity anti-cancer potential...
To evaluate the ability of a commercially available comprehensive chest radiography deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) to detect simple and tension pneumothorax, as stratified by following subgroups: presence an intercostal drain; rib, clavicular, scapular or humeral fractures rib resections; subcutaneous emphysema erect versus non-erect positioning. The hypothesis was that performance would not differ significantly in each these subgroups when compared with overall test dataset.A...
Abstract Background: Non-contrast computed tomography of the brain (NCCTB) is commonly used in clinical practice to detect intracranial pathology but subject interpretation errors. Machine learning capable augmenting decision making and there an opportunity apply deep improve NCCTB scans. This retrospective detection accuracy study assessed performance changes radiologists assisted by a model designed identify many findings also compared standalone with that unassisted radiologists. Methods:...

Purpose: Mullerian duct anomalies are associated with adverse reproductive outcomes including recurrent miscarriage, cervical insufficiency, preterm delivery, intrauterine growth restriction, malpresentation and postpartum haemorrhage, the type frequency of complications depending on anomaly. 1-8 Clear categorisation diagnosis anomaly facilitates an appropriate management plan therapeutic strategy, possible surgical interventions. 7-10Transvaginal three-dimensional ultrasound (3D US)...
Cholinergic signaling plays a crucial role in the regulation of adult hippocampal neurogenesis; however, mechanisms by which acetylcholine mediates neurogenic effects are not completely understood. Here, we report expression muscarinic receptor subtype M4 (M4 mAChR) on subpopulation neural precursor cells (NPCs) mouse hippocampus, and demonstrate that its pharmacological stimulation promotes their proliferation, thereby enhancing production new neurons vivo. Using targeted ablation approach,...
Abstract Cholinergic signaling plays a crucial role in the regulation of adult hippocampal neurogenesis and hippocampus-dependent cognitive mood-related functions. However, contribution basal forebrain medial septum (MS) diagonal band Broca (DBB) cholinergic neurons that innervate hippocampus identity receptor(s) regulate production maturation new are not completely understood. Using targeted, selective ablation approach, we show MS/DBB support both survival morphological adult-born mouse...
