Patient Dose Optimisation of Abdominopelvic Protocols During X‐Ray Imaging

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This study evaluates organ doses in abdominopelvic radiography for both erect and supine positions, addressing dose optimisation concerns in Ghana. Using CalDose X and thermoluminescence dosimeters, organ doses and image quality were analysed, revealing significant dose reductions with optimised exposure parameters (70 kVp, 10 mAs, 110 cm FDD).

Periodontitis during pregnancy: The effect on the gut microbiome and intestinal inflammation

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Periodontitis has been epidemiologically associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes, but causality remains difficult to establish in humans due to confounding factors. This study uses a controlled murine model to examine the effects of experimentally induced periodontitis on the composition of the gut microbiota and gastrointestinal

Bound-state effects for dark matter with Higgs-like mediators

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018
In this paper we study the impact of a scalar exchange on the dark matter relic abundance by solving a plasma-modified Schrödinger equation. A simplified model is considered where a Majorana dark matter fermion is embedded in a U(1)′ extension of the ...

Autophagy Plays a Suppressive Role in Bladder Tumor Formation in an Orthotopic Mouse Model and Bladder Cancer Patient Specimens

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autophagy plays either a suppressing or promoting role during tumor development. Clarifying the role of autophagy in bladder tumorigenesis both in vitro and in vivo is crucial for developing novel therapeutic strategies through manipulating autophagy activity.

Angular Insertion Depth for Cochlear Implantation: A Comparative Analysis on Precision of CT, MRI, and x‐Ray

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Personalized medicine in cochlear implantation has advanced significantly with the advent of software tools that allow for detailed analysis of cochlear anatomy. This facilitates the selection of electrode arrays tailored to the individual cochlear duct length (CDL) and supports anatomy‐based fitting strategies. Concurrently, various
