A multi-scale pyramid of 3D fully convolutional networks for abdominal multi-organ segmentation [PDF]

arXiv, 2018
Recent advances in deep learning, like 3D fully convolutional networks (FCNs), have improved the state-of-the-art in dense semantic segmentation of medical images. However, most network architectures require severely downsampling or cropping the images to meet the memory limitations of today's GPU cards while still considering enough context in the ...

Activation of Glutamatergic Neurons in the Supramammillary Nucleus Promotes the Recovery of Consciousness under Sevoflurane Anesthesia

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Selective lesioning of SuM glutamatergic neurons promoted the induction of and delayed emergence from sevoflurane anesthesia and increased sevoflurane sensitivity. Optogenetic stimulation of SuM glutamatergic neurons or the SuM‐MS projection promoted behavioral arousal and cortical activation under steady‐state sevoflurane anesthesia and reduced the ...

Current status of liver transplantation for non‐B non‐C liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 42-52, January 2023., 2023
Recently, the cases of LT for non‐B non‐C cirrhosis and HCC have been increasing in Japan as well as worldwide. Perioperative management of non‐B non‐C liver disease is problematic due to various risk factors, including alcohol consumption and metabolic syndrome‐related risks, such as obesity and diabetes mellitus.

Homogenization of oxygen transport in biological tissues [PDF]

arXiv, 2014
In this paper, we extend previous work on the mathematical modeling of oxygen transport in biological tissues (Matzavinos et al., 2009). Specifically, we include in the modeling process the arterial and venous microstructure within the tissue by means of homogenization techniques.

AAVR Expression is Essential for AAV Vector Transduction in Sensory Hair Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Decreased sensitivity to AAV vector transduction in the outer hair cells (OHCs) of adult mice is primarily attributed to reduction of AAVR (Kiaa0319l; Au040320). Knockout of AAVR reduces AAV vector transduction efficiency in both inner hair cells (IHCs) and OHCs in neonatal mice.

Prediction of need for bowel resection in acute superior mesenteric artery occlusion: A retrospective study of 48 Japanese patients

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 175-181, January 2023., 2023
In a study of 48 patients with acute superior mesenteric artery occlusion, a logistic regression model using time from onset to diagnosis and the occlusion site of superior mesenteric artery showed 78.6% sensitivity in ruling out cases requiring bowel resection.

HNF3α Targets Nckap1l and Promotes Renal Fibrosis Following Ischemia‐Reperfusion Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Hepatocyte Nuclear Factor 3 alpha (HNF3α) is significantly upregulated in renal tubular epithelial cells of CKD patients and fibrotic mice. Deletion of HNF3α mitigates IRI‐induced renal fibrosis, while overexpression worsens it. HNF3α directly regulates NCK‐associated protein 1‐like (Nckap1l), whose overexpression exacerbates fibrosis.

Do postoperative infectious complications really affect long‐term survival in colorectal cancer surgery? A multicenter retrospective cohort study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 110-120, January 2023., 2023
This multicenter retrospective cohort study suggested that postoperative infection (PI) after curative colorectal surgery (CRC) is associated with impaired oncological outcomes. Strategies to prevent PI and implement appropriate postoperative treatment may improve the quality of care and oncological outcomes in patients undergoing curative CRC surgery.
