A Causality-Inspired Model for Intima-Media Thickening Assessment in Ultrasound Videos [PDF]
arXivCarotid atherosclerosis represents a significant health risk, with its early diagnosis primarily dependent on ultrasound-based assessments of carotid intima-media thickening. However, during carotid ultrasound screening, significant view variations cause style shifts, impairing content cues related to thickening, such as lumen anatomy, which introduces

GAPNet: Granularity Attention Network with Anatomy-Prior-Constraint for Carotid Artery Segmentation [PDF]
arXivAtherosclerosis is a chronic, progressive disease that primarily affects the arterial walls. It is one of the major causes of cardiovascular disease. Magnetic Resonance (MR) black-blood vessel wall imaging (BB-VWI) offers crucial insights into vascular disease diagnosis by clearly visualizing vascular structures.

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.Abstract Purpose The aim is to establish the relationship between carotid susceptibility and microstructural components in diseased carotid arteries. Methods Excised cadaveric carotid arteries (n = 5) were scanned using high‐resolution QSM at 7 Tesla. After ex vivo imaging, all samples were brought to histology and stained for elastin, collagen, cells,

Physics-informed graph neural networks for flow field estimation in carotid arteries [PDF]
arXivHemodynamic quantities are valuable biomedical risk factors for cardiovascular pathology such as atherosclerosis. Non-invasive, in-vivo measurement of these quantities can only be performed using a select number of modalities that are not widely available, such as 4D flow magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Predictive Factors of Free Flap Volume Evolution in Head and Neck Reconstruction
Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.Abstract Objective The aim of our study was to determine the factors influencing the evolution of the total volume and bone volume of free flaps commonly used in head and neck surgery, with a 30‐month prospective study, to establish volume change predictions and thus propose a degree of overcorrection to be expected before reconstruction.

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Angelica dahurica radix (ADR), the root of the botanical family Apiaceae (genus Angelica, species Angelica dahurica (Hoffm.)), has been used to treat colitis in clinical practice. The immunomodulatory effects of ADR are attributed to its polysaccharides (RP). However, its mechanism of action has not been elucidated.
