Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.Male gender and pathological lymph node metastasis are independent poor prognostic factors in patients with esophageal cancer who receive upfront treatment followed by surgery and achieved pathological complete response of the primary tumor. Among patients without pathological lymph node metastasis, the upfront chemotherapy group showed significantly ...

Photon counting spectroscopic CT with dynamic beam attenuator [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 Purpose: Photon counting (PC) computed tomography (CT) can provide material selective CT imaging at lowest patient dose but it suffers from suboptimal count rate. A dynamic beam attenuator (DBA) can help with count rate by modulating x-ray beam intensity such that the low attenuating areas of the patient receive lower exposure, and detector behind ...

Spring and Power in Hovering Ornithopters
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.Only small ornithopters can hover, longest at the hummingbird size. This article reviews the drive and power of these hovering machines, focusing on elastic energy and thrust boosters. Unlike two‐winged designs, X‐winged and multiple‐V‐winged ornithopters benefit from lower disk loading and slower, smaller wingbeats, and the clap‐and‐fling effect ...

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.Early diagnosis and prognosis prediction of central nervous system infections are critical. This study introduces a deep‐learning model utilizing cerebrospinal fluid immune‐cell morphology captured via 3D holotomography. The model effectively predicts infection etiology and prognosis, achieving high accuracy.

A Pilot Study to Evaluate Neurodevelopmental Outcomes in a Pediatric Cohort With Genodermatoses
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Our study aimed to evaluate cognitive function in individuals with genetic skin disorders involving neuroectoderm (n = 8) compared to individuals with only ectoderm or mesoderm (n = 16) involvement. We hypothesized that neuroectodermal involvement would result in poorer neurocognitive performance.

EFFECTIVENESS OF SINGLE CHEST TUBE VS DOUBLE CHEST TUBE DRAINAGE APPLICATION INPATIENTS UNDERGOING DECORTICATION: A RETROSPECTIVE STUDY. [PDF]
Background Chest tube drainage is essential following decortication for stage III empyema thoracis. While double chest tube placement is widely used, a single chest tube may offer comparable efficacy with reduced postoperative pain.
