05). Central nervous syndrome abnormalities (odds ratio [OR] = 20.9, 95% CI 4.3, 100), body temperature ≥ 38.5°C (OR = 23.2, 95% CI 3.4, 158), BUN levels ≥ 6.4 mmol/L (OR = 9.9, 95% CI 2.2, 44), CKMB levels ≥ 100 U/L (OR = 33.2, 95% CI 5.8, 192), and LDH levels ≥ 1,000 U/L (OR = 8.3, 95% CI 1.9, 37) were predictors of mortality. Our findings…[Read more]

Facial blood flow, which typically exhibits distinctive oscillation at a frequency of around 0.1 Hz, has been extensively studied. Although this oscillation may include important information about blood flow regulation, its origin remains unknown. The spatial phase distribution of the oscillation is thus desirable. Therefore, we visualized facial…[Read more]

Three-dimensional ultrasound (3D-US) has already demonstrated improved reproducibility with a high degree of agreement (intermodality variability), reproducibility (interoperator variability), and repeatability (intraoperator variability) compared with conventional two-dimensional ultrasound (2D-US) when…[Read more]

Twenty studies containing 5,213 patients met the inclusion criteria. Combined T&N staging accuracy was 19% (95% CI, 15-24); T staging accuracy was 29% (95% CI, 24-35); percentage of patients with T downstaging was 41% (95% CI, 33-50); percentage of patients with T upstaging was 28% (95% CI, 24-32) and percentage of patients with N upstaging was…[Read more]

It is necessary for dental students and freshly graduated dentists to apply their education and practice to different clinical and preclinical procedures. The implant success rate and durability are high. Therefore, this study was designed to assess the level of knowledge, awareness and perception of dental students, interns and freshly graduated…[Read more]

Extensive experiments show that the proposed methods outperform the state-of-the-art methods; VSLNet-L addresses the issue of performance degradation on long videos. Our study suggests that the span-based QA framework is an effective strategy to solve the NLVL problem.Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) are mechanical pumps, which can be used…[Read more]

PFT can be performed with reliability in patients with tracheostomies, and they are useful for detecting and classifying types of lung dysfunction.

To describe overall survival (OS) in 90 days and to evaluate the prognostic factors in patients with advanced cancer and COVID-19.

This is a retrospective cohort study carried out at the…[Read more]

The final set was performed to test the generalizability of predictive models based on movie-watching FC, as this generalizability is highly dependent on the consistency of the FC. The results indicate that predictive models trained based on FC extracted from one movie fMRI run can make good predictions on FC extracted from runs with different…[Read more]

While several health risks of e-cigarette and marijuana use have been described, little is known about their associations with school-related outcomes and risky sexual behaviors in adolescents.

To determine the odds of adverse school outcomes and risky sexual behaviors among youth with single or dual use of e-cigarettes and marijuana.

We…[Read more]
