Reference Values for Inward Displacement in the Normal Left Ventricle: A Novel Method of Regional Left Ventricular Function Assessment

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2023
Background: Regional functional left ventricular (LV) assessment using current imaging techniques remains limited. Inward displacement (InD) has been developed as a novel technique to assess regional LV function via measurement of the regional ...

Time to Diagnosis Among Children and Adolescents With Cancer in Québec, Canada: A Population‐Based Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Timely cancer diagnosis in children and adolescents is important to improving outcomes. We aimed to quantify time to diagnosis and assess variations by patient, demographic and system‐level factors. Procedure We conducted a population‐based study of individuals aged 0–19 years diagnosed with one of 12 cancers from 2010 to 2022 in ...

Evaluation of Cardiac Function in Young Mdx Mice Using MRI with Feature Tracking and Self-Gated Magnetic Resonance Cine Imaging

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2023
This study aimed to evaluate cardiac function in a young mouse model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (mdx) using cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with feature tracking and self-gated magnetic resonance cine imaging.

Establishing an Apheresis Medicine Program in a Resource‐Constrained Setting: A 5‐Year Experience From Lagos, Nigeria

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Establishing a comprehensive apheresis medicine program in a resource‐constrained setting presents significant structural, financial, and logistical challenges. Despite the growing clinical importance of apheresis services globally, published experience from sub‐Saharan Africa remains sparse.

Distinguishing Glaciers between Surging and Advancing by Remote Sensing: A Case Study in the Eastern Karakoram

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
The Karakoram has had an overall slight positive glacier mass balance since the end of 20th century, which is anomalous given that most other regions in High Mountain Asia have had negative changes.

Deformation Parameters of the Heart in Endurance Athletes and in Patients with Dilated Cardiomyopathy—A Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Study

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2021
A better understanding of the left ventricle (LV) and right ventricle (RV) functioning would help with the differentiation between athlete’s heart and dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). We aimed to analyse deformation parameters in endurance athletes relative

Adaptive Constraints for Feature Tracking [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Weather Review, 1999
In this paper extensions to an existing tracking algorithm are described.\ud These extensions implement adaptive tracking constraints in the form\ud of regional upper-bound displacements and an adaptive track smoothness\ud constraint. Together, these constraints make the tracking algorithm\ud more flexible than the original algorithm (which used fixed ...

Serum Myonectin Levels Are Positively Associated With Physical Function and Lower Frailty‐Related Limitation in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients: A Cross‐Sectional Study

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients frequently suffer from frailty, characterized by reduced physical function and poor prognosis. Myokines, such as myonectin, secreted by muscle, are emerging regulators of systemic health. This study investigated the relationship between serum myonectin, adipokines (adiponectin, omentin), and ...

Tracking with multi-level features

open access: yesCoRR, 2016
We present a novel formulation of the multiple object tracking problem which integrates low and mid-level features. In particular, we formulate the tracking problem as a quadratic program coupling detections and dense point trajectories. Due to the computational complexity of the initial QP, we propose an approximation by two auxiliary problems, a ...

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative
