Primary Care Provider Perceptions and Practices Regarding Dosing Units for Oral Liquid Medications.

Academic pediatrics
INTRODUCTION: To prevent errors, health care professional and safety organizations recommend using milliliters (mL) alone for oral liquid medication dosing instructions and devices. In 2018, for federal incentives under the Quality Payment Program, o...

Catheter Ablation of Focal Atrial Tachycardia Using Remote Magnetic Navigation.

The Journal of invasive cardiology
OBJECTIVES: The outcomes of catheter ablation in focal atrial tachycardia (AT) using remote magnetic navigation (RMN) are still controversial. The objectives of this study were to assess the acute and long-term outcomes of catheter ablation in focal ...

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...

Resolution of type 2 diabetes after sleeve gastrectomy: a 2-step hypothesis.

Surgery for obesity and related diseases : official journal of the American Society for Bariatric Surgery
BACKGROUND: Weight loss (WL) and altered gut hormonal levels are involved in glucose homeostasis after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG).

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...

Mechanisms of pulse pressure amplification dipping pattern during sleep time: the SAFAR study.

Journal of the American Society of Hypertension : JASH
The difference in pulse pressure (PP) between peripheral arteries and the aorta, called pulse pressure amplification (PPamp), is a well-described physiological phenomenon independently associated with cardiovascular events. Recent studies suggest tha...

Machine-Learning Classifier for Patients with Major Depressive Disorder: Multifeature Approach Based on a High-Order Minimum Spanning Tree Functional Brain Network.

Computational and mathematical methods in medicine
High-order functional connectivity networks are rich in time information that can reflect dynamic changes in functional connectivity between brain regions. Accordingly, such networks are widely used to classify brain diseases. However, traditional me...

Enhancement of force patterns classification based on Gaussian distributions.

Journal of biomechanics
Description of the patterns of ground reaction force is a standard method in areas such as medicine, biomechanics and robotics. The fundamental parameter is the time course of the force, which is classified visually in particular in the field of clin...

Efficacy and safety of lebrikizumab in adult patients with mild-to-moderate asthma not receiving inhaled corticosteroids.

Respiratory medicine
BACKGROUND: Asthma is a heterogeneous and complex disease in both its clinical course and response to treatment. IL-13 is central to Type 2 inflammation and contributes to many features of asthma. In a previous Phase 2 study, lebrikizumab, an anti-IL...

How do walkers behave when crossing the way of a mobile robot that replicates human interaction rules?

Gait & posture
Previous studies showed the existence of implicit interaction rules shared by human walkers when crossing each other. Especially, each walker contributes to the collision avoidance task and the crossing order, as set at the beginning, is preserved al...
