PAT-CNN: Automatic Segmentation and Quantification of Pericardial Adipose Tissue from T2-Weighted Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Images [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Background: Increased pericardial adipose tissue (PAT) is associated with many types of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Although cardiac magnetic resonance images (CMRI) are often acquired in patients with CVD, there are currently no tools to automatically identify and quantify PAT from CMRI.

Handling confounding variables in statistical shape analysis -- application to cardiac remodelling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Statistical shape analysis is a powerful tool to assess organ morphologies and find shape changes associated to a particular disease. However, imbalance in confounding factors, such as demographics might invalidate the analysis if not taken into consideration.

Downregulation of O‐GlcNAcylation enhances etoposide‐induced p53‐mediated apoptosis in HepG2 human liver cancer cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Etoposide, a topoisomerase II inhibitor, reduces O‐GlcNAcylation in HepG2 liver cancer cells. Further inhibition of O‐GlcNAc transferase by OSMI‐1 enhanced etoposide‐induced apoptosis, lowering the IC50 for viability and increasing the EC50 for cytotoxicity.

High Throughput Computation of Reference Ranges of Biventricular Cardiac Function on the UK Biobank Population Cohort [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
The exploitation of large-scale population data has the potential to improve healthcare by discovering and understanding patterns and trends within this data. To enable high throughput analysis of cardiac imaging data automatically, a pipeline should comprise quality monitoring of the input images, segmentation of the cardiac structures, assessment of ...

Matrigel inhibits elongation and drives endoderm differentiation in aggregates of mouse embryonic stem cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Stem cell‐based embryo models (SCBEMs) are valuable to study early developmental milestones. Matrigel, a basement membrane matrix, is a critical substrate used in various SCBEM protocols, but its role in driving stem cell lineage commitment is not clearly defined.

Joint Semi-supervised 3D Super-Resolution and Segmentation with Mixed Adversarial Gaussian Domain Adaptation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Optimising the analysis of cardiac structure and function requires accurate 3D representations of shape and motion. However, techniques such as cardiac magnetic resonance imaging are conventionally limited to acquiring contiguous cross-sectional slices with low through-plane resolution and potential inter-slice spatial misalignment. Super-resolution in

Elevated positive end-expiratory pressure decreases cardiac index in a Rhesus monkey model

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics, 2014
Rationale: Clinicians are often concerned that higher positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) will decrease cardiac index (CI). PEEP affects cardiac index through multiple inter-related mechanisms.

Cardiac Motion Scoring with Segment- and Subject-level Non-Local Modeling [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
Motion scoring of cardiac myocardium is of paramount importance for early detection and diagnosis of various cardiac disease. It aims at identifying regional wall motions into one of the four types including normal, hypokinetic, akinetic, and dyskinetic, and is extremely challenging due to the complex myocardium deformation and subtle inter-class ...
