Parameters of Body Composition Predict Clinical Course in Acute Colonic Diverticulitis
Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 16, Issue 3, June 2025.ABSTRACT Background Acute colonic diverticulitis (ACD) is the most common complication of colonic diverticulosis. Body composition, that is, proportion, distribution and quality of muscle and adipose tissues may play a relevant role in ACD. Previously, only few reports with small number of patients analysed the prognostic role of body composition in ...

Virtual monochromatic imaging in dual-source and dual-energy CT for visualization of acute ischemic stroke [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 We have recently developed a phantom that simulates acute ischemic stroke. We attempted to visualize acute-stage cerebral infarction by applying virtual monochromatic images to this phantom using dual-energy CT (DECT). Virtual monochromatic images were created using DECT from 40 to 100 keV at every 10 keV and from 60 to 80 keV at every 1 keV, under ...

On Point Sets in Vector Spaces over Finite Fields That Determine Only Acute Angle Triangles [PDF]
arXiv, 2009 For three points $\vec{u}$,$\vec{v}$ and $\vec{w}$ in the $n$-dimensional space $\F_q^n$ over the finite field $\F_q$ of $q$ elements we give a natural interpretation of an acute angle triangle defined by this points. We obtain an upper bound on the size of a set $\cZ$ such that all triples of distinct points $\vec{u}, \vec{v}, \vec{w} \in \cZ$ define ...

Context-based smart contracts for appendable-block blockchains [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Currently, blockchain proposals are being adopted to solve security issues, such as data integrity, resilience, and non-repudiation. To improve certain aspects, e.g., energy consumption and latency, of traditional blockchains, different architectures, algorithms, and data management methods have been recently proposed.
