Differential metabolic and cellular brain regional susceptibility in adult rats with chronic liver disease [PDF]
arXivBackground & Aims: Patients with type C hepatic encephalopathy (HE) present diverse symptoms indicating that various brain regions are affected. Understanding the distinct metabolic and cellular changes across these regions could help explain the clinical variability of HE.

Abstraction in Belief Networks: The Role of Intermediate States in Diagnostic Reasoning [PDF]
arXiv, 2013 Bayesian belief networks are bing increasingly used as a knowledge representation for diagnostic reasoning. One simple method for conducting diagnostic reasoning is to represent system faults and observations only. In this paper, we investigate how having intermediate nodes-nodes other than fault and observation nodes affects the diagnostic performance

Mesenteric thrombosis: An unusual complication of severe acute pancreatitis—Report of two cases
Advances in Digestive Medicine, EarlyView.Abstract The incidence of acute pancreatitis is 34 per 100 000 people in the general population and is on the rise. Approximately 15% to 20% of all patients experience severe pancreatitis, with a mortality rate nearing 20%. This condition is often linked to vascular complications, although mesenteric thrombosis is a rare presentation.

Why Is Diagnosis Using Belief Networks Insensitive to Imprecision In Probabilities? [PDF]
arXiv, 2013 Recent research has found that diagnostic performance with Bayesian belief networks is often surprisingly insensitive to imprecision in the numerical probabilities. For example, the authors have recently completed an extensive study in which they applied random noise to the numerical probabilities in a set of belief networks for medical diagnosis ...

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Cystic kidney diseases (CyKD) are a diverse group of disorders affecting more than 1 in 1000 individuals. Over 120 genes are implicated, primarily encoding components of the primary cilium, transcription factors, and morphogens. Prognosis varies greatly by molecular diagnosis. Causal variants are not identified in 10%–60% of individuals due to

Interleukin‐18 signaling promotes activation of hepatic stellate cells in mouse liver fibrosis
Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022 Interleukin‐18 signaling promotes activation of hepatic stellate cells in mouse liver fibrosis. Abstract Background and Aims Nucleotide‐binding oligomerization domain‐like receptor‐family pyrin domain‐containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation has been shown to result in liver fibrosis.

Re-do Kasai procedure in a preterm infant
Journal of Pediatric Surgery Case Reports, 2019 We report the case of a 10-day old boy with biliary atresia (BA) who was delivered by caesarean section at 33 weeks 4 days of gestation (birth weight, 2135 g). At birth, his direct bilirubin level was high, and stools were light yellow.
