Long-term Virologic Suppression Despite Presence of Resistance-associated Mutations Among Perinatally HIV-infected Youth.

The Pediatric infectious disease journal
BACKGROUND: There is limited information on long-term consequences of continuing combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) consisting of <3 active drugs in treatment-experienced youth with perinatal HIV (PHIV). This study describes the clinical outco...

High-Dose Hook Effect in 17-Hydroxyprogesterone Assay in a Patient with 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency.

Journal of clinical research in pediatric endocrinology
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) describes a group of disorders characterized by enzyme defects in adrenal steroidogenesis. 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD) is the most commonly encountered form. The analysis of steroids in pediatric cases requ...

Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin as an Early Sign of Diabetic Kidney Injury in Children.

Journal of clinical research in pediatric endocrinology
OBJECTIVE: There is some evidence indicating that histopathological changes in type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) emerge before onset of microalbuminuria. The aim of our study was to determine whether urine neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NG...

Robotic Total Gastrectomy With Intracorporeal Robot-Sewn Anastomosis: A Novel Approach Adopting the Double-Loop Reconstruction Method.

Medicine
Gastric cancer constitutes a major health problem. Robotic surgery has been progressively developed in this field. Although the feasibility of robotic procedures has been demonstrated, there are unresolved aspects being debated, including the reprodu...

The model for Fundamentals of Endovascular Surgery (FEVS) successfully defines the competent endovascular surgeon.

Journal of vascular surgery
OBJECTIVE: Fundamental skills testing is now required for certification in general surgery. No model for assessing fundamental endovascular skills exists. Our objective was to develop a model that tests the fundamental endovascular skills and differe...

In silico discovery of significant pathways in colorectal cancer metastasis using a two-stage optimisation approach.

IET systems biology
Accurate and reliable modelling of protein-protein interaction networks for complex diseases such as colorectal cancer can help better understand mechanism of diseases and potentially discover new drugs. Different machine learning methods such as emp...

Deploying swarm intelligence in medical imaging identifying metastasis, micro-calcifications and brain image segmentation.

IET systems biology
This study proposes an umbrella deployment of swarm intelligence algorithm, such as stochastic diffusion search for medical imaging applications. After summarising the results of some previous works which shows how the algorithm assists in the identi...

Electroencephalographic markers of robot-aided therapy in stroke patients for the evaluation of upper limb rehabilitation.

International journal of rehabilitation research. Internationale Zeitschrift fur Rehabilitationsforschung. Revue internationale de recherches de readaptation
Stroke is the leading cause of permanent disability in developed countries; its effects may include sensory, motor, and cognitive impairment as well as a reduced ability to perform self-care and participate in social and community activities. A numbe...
