Pixel-Level Deep Segmentation: Artificial Intelligence Quantifies Muscle on Computed Tomography for Body Morphometric Analysis.

Journal of digital imaging
Pretreatment risk stratification is key for personalized medicine. While many physicians rely on an "eyeball test" to assess whether patients will tolerate major surgery or chemotherapy, "eyeballing" is inherently subjective and difficult to quantify...

Adiponectin levels may help assess the clinical repercussions of obesity irrespective of body mass index.

Hormones (Athens, Greece)
OBJECTIVE: Adiponectin is the major product of adipose tissue. The aim of this study was to associate adiponectin levels with adipose tissue and metabolic indices.

Renal Function in Type 2 Diabetes Following Gastric Bypass.
