Skull stripping is a crucial preprocessing step in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), where experts manually create brain masks. This labor-intensive process heavily relies on the annotator's expertise, as automation faces challenges such as low tissu...
Chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) MRI at 3 T suffers from low specificity due to overlapping CEST effects from multiple metabolites, while higher field strengths (B) allow for better separation of Z-spectral "peaks," aiding signal interpre...
BACKGROUND: Renal cold ischemia-reperfusion injury (CIRI), a pathological process during kidney transplantation, may result in delayed graft function and negatively impact graft survival and function. There is a lack of an accurate and non-invasive t...
The diaphragm muscle (DIAm) is the primary inspiratory muscle in mammals. In awake animals, considerable heterogeneity in the electromyographic (EMG) activity of the DIAm reflects varied ventilatory and nonventilatory behaviors. Experiments in awake ...
PURPOSE: To develop a deep learning-based approach to reduce the scan time of multipool CEST MRI for Parkinson's disease (PD) while maintaining sufficient prediction accuracy.
Micturition serves an essential physiological function that allows the body to eliminate metabolic wastes and maintain water-electrolyte balance. The urine spot assay (VSA), as a simple and economical assay, has been widely used in the study of mictu...
Adaptation is a universal aspect of neural systems that changes circuit computations to match prevailing inputs. These changes facilitate efficient encoding of sensory inputs while avoiding saturation. Conventional artificial neural networks (ANNs) h...
Opioids are small-molecule agonists of μ-opioid receptor (μOR), while reversal agents such as naloxone are antagonists of μOR. Here, we developed machine learning (ML) models to classify the intrinsic activities of ligands at the human μOR based on t...
Machine learning (ML) systems can model quantitative structure-property relationships (QSPR) using existing experimental data and make property predictions for new molecules. With the advent of modalities such as targeted protein degraders (TPD), the...
Improvements in the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) and homeostasis model assessment of beta-cell function (HOMA-β) significantly reduce the risk of disabling diabetic pathies. Nanoparticle (AuNP-AgNP)-metformin are conce...
