Continued advancement in pluripotent stem cell culture is closing the gap between bench and bedside for using these cells in regenerative medicine, drug discovery and safety testing. In order to produce stem cell derived biopharmaceutics and cells fo...
INTRODUCTION: Adherent perirenal fat (APF) can be defined as inflammatory fat sticking to renal parenchyma, whose dissection is difficult and makes it troublesome to expose the tumour. Our objective was to evaluate the impact of APF on the technical ...

Accurately assessing body fat percentage (BF%) is crucial for healthcare and fitness but is hindered by gold-standard methods that are costly and invasive. This study employs a dataset containing variables such as age, sex, Body Mass Index (BMI), and...
OBJECTIVES: Body composition assessment using CT images at the L3-level is increasingly applied in cancer research and has been shown to be strongly associated with long-term survival. Robust high-throughput automated segmentation is key to assess la...
BACKGROUND: Correctly distinguishing between benign and malignant pulmonary nodules can avoid unnecessary invasive procedures. This study aimed to construct a deep learning radiomics clinical nomogram (DLRCN) for predicting malignancy of pulmonary no...

PURPOSE: Thyroid eye disease (TED) is characterized by proliferation of orbital tissues and complicated by compressive optic neuropathy (CON). This study aims to utilize a deep-learning (DL)-based automated segmentation model to segment orbital muscl...
PURPOSE: We analyzed the surgical results of patients who were treated and followed up for prostate cancer in our clinic to predict the relationship between periprostatic adipose tissue and patients with and without pathologically upstaged disease.
Technologies are transforming the understanding of adipose tissue as a complex and dynamic tissue that plays a critical role in energy homoeostasis and metabolic health. This mini-review provides a brief overview of the potential impact of novel tech...

This study aimed to investigate the performance of least-squares support vector machines to predict carcass characteristics in Tan sheep using noninvasive in vivo measurements. A total of 80 six-month-old Tan sheep (37 rams and 43 ewes) were examined...
Quantitative methods for assessing differentiative potency of adipose-derived stem/stromal cells may lead to improved clinical application of this multipotent stem cell, by advancing our understanding of specific processes such as adipogenic differen...
