Deep Learning Study of Alkaptonuria Spinal Disease Assesses Global and Regional Severity and Detects Occult Treatment Status.

Journal of inherited metabolic disease
Deep learning (DL) is increasingly used to analyze medical imaging, but is less refined for rare conditions, which require novel pre-processing and analytical approaches. To assess DL in the context of rare diseases, this study focused on alkaptonuri...

Machine-learning based classification of middle-ear fixation and separation using sweep frequency impedance information reflecting middle-ear dynamics.

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America
The sweep frequency impedance (SFI) meter is an apparatus that delivers a frequency-sweeping sound into the ear canal and evaluates dynamic characteristics of the middle ear based on changes in sound pressure in the ear canal. We have renewed the SFI...

Impact of Blastocystis carriage and colonization intensity on gut microbiota composition in a non-westernized rural population from Colombia.

PLoS neglected tropical diseases
BACKGROUND: The role of Blastocystis, a common intestinal parasitic protist of humans and other animals, in human health and disease remains elusive. Recent studies suggest a connection between Blastocystis colonization, healthier lifestyles, and hig...

The role of the sacroiliac joint in sex estimation: Analysis of morphometry and variation types using machine learning techniques.

Legal medicine (Tokyo, Japan)
This study aimed to evaluate the potential of machine learning algorithms in sex estimation by going beyond the traditional two-dimensional (2D) measurements of the pelvic bone, predominantly preferred in sex prediction, by including measurement data...

Optimizing Deep Learning Models for Luminal and Nonluminal Breast Cancer Classification Using Multidimensional ROI in DCE-MRI-A Multicenter Study.

Cancer medicine
OBJECTIVES: Previous deep learning studies have not explored the synergistic effects of ROI dimensions (2D/2.5D/3D), peritumoral expansion levels (0-8 mm), and segmentation scenarios (ROI only vs. ROI original). Our study aims to evaluate the perform...

Juvenile Myoclonic Epilepsy Imaging Endophenotypes and Relationship With Cognition and Resting-State EEG.

Human brain mapping
Structural neuroimaging studies of patients with Juvenile Myoclonic Epilepsy (JME) typically present two findings: 1-volume reduction of subcortical gray matter structures, and 2-abnormalities of cortical thickness. The general trend has been to obse...

LC-MS/MS-Based Assay for Steroid Profiling in Peripheral and Adrenal Venous Samples for the Subtyping of Primary Aldosteronism.

Journal of clinical hypertension (Greenwich, Conn.)
Given the largely unexplored application of liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) steroid analysis in primary aldosteronism (PA), we aimed to investigate its diagnostic utility in PA classification and to characterize steroid secr...

Effects of chronic exposure to biomass pollutants on cardiorespiratory responses and the occurrence of exercise-induced bronchoconstriction in healthy men.

Physiological reports
Exposure to charcoal biomass (CB) pollutants affects the cardiorespiratory system. We assessed cardiopulmonary responses (CPR) to exercise in charcoal producers (CPs) compared to farmers and evaluated the prevalence of exercise-induced bronchoconstri...

The effect of esketamine on perioperative anxiety and depressive symptoms in patients undergoing total hysterectomy.

The journal of obstetrics and gynaecology research
AIM: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of esketamine on perioperative anxiety and depressive symptoms, acute stress reaction, and serum neurotransmitters in patients undergoing total hysterectomy.
