BACKGROUND: With the progressive increase in aging populations, the use of opportunistic computed tomography (CT) scanning is increasing, which could be a valuable method for acquiring information on both muscles and bones of aging populations.
BACKGROUND: Prolonged levodopa treatment in Parkinson's disease (PD) often leads to motor complications, including levodopa-induced dyskinesia (LID). Despite continuous levodopa treatment, some patients do not develop LID symptoms, even in later stag...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Cardiovascular health (CVH) has been associated with cognitive decline and dementia, but the extent to which CVH affects brain health remains unclear. We investigated the association of CVH, assessed using Life's Essential ...
Longitudinal studies that continuously generate data enable the capture of temporal variations in experimentally observed parameters, facilitating the interpretation of results in a time-aware manner. We propose IL-VIS (incrementally learned visualiz...
INTRODUCTION: Preeclampsia is a disease with an unknown pathogenesis and is one of the leading causes of maternal and perinatal morbidity. At present, early identification of high-risk groups for preeclampsia and timely intervention with aspirin is a...

BACKGROUND: Improving safe and effective access to ketamine therapy is of high priority given the growing burden of mental illness. Telehealth-supported administration of sublingual ketamine is being explored toward this goal.
: Currently, no tool exists to predict clinical outcomes in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease (PD) under levodopa-carbidopa intestinal gel (LCIG) treatment. The aim of this study was to develop a novel deep neural network model to predict th...
Longitudinal hippocampal atrophy is commonly used as progressive marker assisting clinical diagnose of dementia. However, precise quantification of the atrophy is limited by longitudinal segmentation errors resulting from MRI artifacts across multipl...
