Does she have adnexal torsion? Prediction of adnexal torsion in reproductive age women.

Archives of gynecology and obstetrics
PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to investigate the association of clinical, laboratory and ultrasound findings with the surgical diagnosis of adnexal torsion in a retrospective cohort of women operated for suspected torsion.

Serum Concentrations of New Predictive Cardiovascular Disease Biomarkers in Mexican Women Exposed to Lead.

Archives of environmental contamination and toxicology
The purpose of this study was to evaluate lead exposure and its relationship with serum levels of predictive CVD biomarkers [asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA), adipocyte fatty acid-binding protein (FABP4), adiponectin, and chemerin] in women living ...

Anesthetic Efficacy of Gow-Gates Nerve Block, Inferior Alveolar Nerve Block, and Their Combination in Mandibular Molars with Symptomatic Irreversible Pulpitis: A Prospective, Randomized Clinical Trial.

Journal of endodontics
INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this prospective, randomized clinical trial was to evaluate the anesthetic efficacy of the Gow-Gates nerve block (GGNB), the inferior alveolar nerve block (IANB), and their combination for mandibular molars in patients wi...

Biomarker and shear stress in secondary pediatric pulmonary hypertension.

Turkish journal of medical sciences
Background/aim: Endothelial dysfunction, tissue damage, inflammation, and microthrombosis are involved in the pathogenesis of pulmonary hypertension (PH), which may be present as a complication of congenital heart diseases. This study aims to identif...

Breast lesion classification based on supersonic shear-wave elastography and automated lesion segmentation from B-mode ultrasound images.

Computers in biology and medicine
Supersonic shear-wave elastography (SWE) has emerged as a useful imaging modality for breast lesion assessment. Regions of interest (ROIs) were required to be specified for extracting features that characterize malignancy of lesions. Although analyse...

Cleft Skeletal Asymmetry: Asymmetry Index, Classification and Application.

The Cleft palate-craniofacial journal : official publication of the American Cleft Palate-Craniofacial Association
OBJECTIVE: To quantitatively measure the extent of 3D asymmetry of the facial skeleton in patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP) using an asymmetry index (AI) approach, and to illustrate the applicability of the index in guiding and mea...

Egg Excretion does not Increase after Exercise: Implications for Diagnostic Testing.

The American journal of tropical medicine and hygiene
Children are frequently invited to exercise before micturition, as it is believed that this activity will result in higher egg excretion, and hence, increases sensitivity of microscopic diagnoses. However, the evidence of this recommendation is scan...

A 29-gene and cytogenetic score for the prediction of resistance to induction treatment in acute myeloid leukemia.

Haematologica
Primary therapy resistance is a major problem in acute myeloid leukemia treatment. We set out to develop a powerful and robust predictor for therapy resistance for intensively treated adult patients. We used two large gene expression data sets (n=856...

The identification of high potential archers based on fitness and motor ability variables: A Support Vector Machine approach.

Human movement science
Support Vector Machine (SVM) has been shown to be an effective learning algorithm for classification and prediction. However, the application of SVM for prediction and classification in specific sport has rarely been used to quantify/discriminate low...
