Obesity as a Risk Factor for Accelerated Brain Ageing in First-Episode Psychosis-A Longitudinal Study.

Schizophrenia bulletin
BACKGROUND: Obesity is highly prevalent in schizophrenia, with implications for psychiatric prognosis, possibly through links between obesity and brain structure. In this longitudinal study in first episode of psychosis (FEP), we used machine learnin...

<b>Introduction:</b> The effect of BMI on development of perioperative complications in head and neck cancer surgeries is not welldefined. </br></br> <b> Aim:</b> This study aims to evaluate the effect of body mass...

Early Prediction of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus in the Chinese Population via Advanced Machine Learning.

The Journal of clinical endocrinology and metabolism
CONTEXT: Accurate methods for early gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) (during the first trimester of pregnancy) prediction in Chinese and other populations are lacking.

Bariatric surgery and hemodialysis: A case report of a patient with less 40 kilograms and without dialysis.

Saudi journal of kidney diseases and transplantation : an official publication of the Saudi Center for Organ Transplantation, Saudi Arabia
Obesity is an important risk factor for chronic kidney disease. Bariatric surgery (BS) may improve long-term kidney outcomes, but there is no agreement regarding the benefit and timing of BS in patients with end-stage renal disease. We present a 46-y...

[Obesity and inflammation in students of a Colombian public university].

Revista de salud publica (Bogota, Colombia)
OBJECTIVE: To describe the relationship between obesity and proinflammatory variables in the student population of the University of Quindío.

Evaluating the Sensitivity of Resting-State BOLD Variability to Age and Cognition after Controlling for Motion and Cardiovascular Influences: A Network-Based Approach.

Cerebral cortex (New York, N.Y. : 1991)
Recent functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies report that moment-to-moment variability in the BOLD signal is related to differences in age and cognition and, thus, may be sensitive to age-dependent decline. However, head motion and/or c...

Low-Dose Abdominal CT Using a Deep Learning-Based Denoising Algorithm: A Comparison with CT Reconstructed with Filtered Back Projection or Iterative Reconstruction Algorithm.

Korean journal of radiology
OBJECTIVE: To compare the image quality of low-dose (LD) computed tomography (CT) obtained using a deep learning-based denoising algorithm (DLA) with LD CT images reconstructed with a filtered back projection (FBP) and advanced modeled iterative reco...

Design and Development of a Sitting Posture Recognition System.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Sitting posture recognition can be used to evaluate the awareness of a person carrying out a task, such as working or driving, and can aid in avoiding accidents or other health risks, such as musculoskeletal disorders. In addition, sitting posture ca...

[Robot-assisted vs laparoscopic gastric bypass : First experiences with the DaVinci system in bariatric surgery].

Der Chirurg; Zeitschrift fur alle Gebiete der operativen Medizen
Conventional laparoscopy is the gold standard in bariatric surgery. Internationally, robot-assisted surgery is gaining in importance. Up to now there are only few reports from Germany on the use of the system in bariatric surgery. Since January 2017 ...

Effect of intraoperative mannitol administration on acute kidney injury after robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy: A propensity score matching analysis.

Medicine
Mannitol, an osmotic diuretic, has been used to prevent acute kidney injury (AKI). However, studies have found divergent effects of intraoperative mannitol administration on postoperative AKI. We therefore evaluated the effects of intraoperative mann...
