Hepatic alveolar echinococcosis simulating metastatic malignancy

open access: yesAutopsy and Case Reports
Echinococcosis is a parasitic disease caused by infection with tiny tapeworms of the genus Echinococcus. Echinococcosis is classified as either cystic echinococcosis or alveolar echinococcosis.

Automatic Segmentation of the Kidneys and Cystic Renal Lesions on Non-Contrast CT Using a Convolutional Neural Network [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Objective: Automated segmentation tools are useful for calculating kidney volumes rapidly and accurately. Furthermore, these tools have the power to facilitate large-scale image-based artificial intelligence projects by generating input labels, such as for image registration algorithms.

Ion mediated cross-shield driven mucous swelling kinetics [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2013
We present an experimentally guided, bi-phasic, multi-species ionic gel model to compare and make quantitative predictions on the viscoelastic properties of healthy mucus versus Cystic-Fibrosis infected mucus. The mixture theory consists of the mucus (polymer phase) and water (solvent phase) as well as several different ions: H$^+$, Na$^+$, Cl$^-$ and ...

An Easy and efficient method for native and immunoreactive Echinococcus granulosus antigen 5 enrichment from hydatid cyst fluid [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background:Currently, the serodiagnosis of cystic echinococcosis relies mostly on crude Echinococcus granulosus hydatid cyst fluid as the antigen. Consequently, available immunodiagnostic tests lack standardization of the target antigen and, in turn ...

Improved serodiagnosis of alveolar echinococcosis of humans using an in vitro-produced Echinococcus multilocularis antigen [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Serology is an important tool for the diagnosis of alveolar echinococcosis (AE) in humans. In order to improve serodiagnostic performance, we have developed an in vitro-produced Echinococcus mulilocularis metacestode vesicle fluid (EmVF) antigen for ...

Comparative analysis of full-length antigen II/3 from Echinococcus multilocularis and E. granulosus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The recombinant Echinococcus multilocularis antigen ll/3-10 is one of the most promising tools for immunodiagnosis of alveolar echinococcosis in human patients. Its nucleic acid sequence represents a part of the E.

Sparse Meets Dense: A Hybrid Approach to Enhance Scientific Document Retrieval [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Traditional information retrieval is based on sparse bag-of-words vector representations of documents and queries. More recent deep-learning approaches have used dense embeddings learned using a transformer-based large language model. We show that on a classic benchmark on scientific document retrieval in the medical domain of cystic fibrosis, that ...
