New Descriptor for Glomerulus Detection in Kidney Microscopy Image [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Glomerulus detection is a key step in histopathological evaluation of microscopy images of kidneys. However, the task of automatic detection of glomeruli poses challenges due to the disparity in sizes and shapes of glomeruli in renal sections.

Perceptions About Asymptomatic Hyperuricemia and Views About Urate‐Lowering Therapy in People With Asymptomatic Hyperuricemia

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Asymptomatic hyperuricemia is a precursor of gout and is also associated with cardiovascular disease and chronic kidney disease. The aim of this study was to understand perceptions about asymptomatic hyperuricemia and views about urate‐lowering therapy in people with asymptomatic hyperuricemia. Methods Participants in a multinational study of

Diabetic nephropathy induces alterations in the glomerular and tubule lipid profiles1[S]

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2014
Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is a major life-threatening complication of diabetes. Renal lesions affect glomeruli and tubules, but the pathogenesis is not completely understood.

The Marr and Albus Theories of the Cerebellum: Two Eary Models of Associative Memory [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
The Marr and Albus theories of the cerebellum are compared and contrasted. They are shown to be similar in their analysis of the function of the mossy fibers, granule cells, Golgi cells, and Purkinje cells.

Building the Glomerulus [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2005
The structural integrity of the glomerular capillaries stems from the stereotyped arrangement of the three constituent cell types: Podocytes (also called visceral epithelial cells), endothelial cells, and mesangial cells.

Exploring Patients’ Profiles Associated With the Resolution of Acute Calcium Pyrophosphate Arthritis Treated With Colchicine and Prednisone: Post Hoc Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The objective was to identify factors determining acute arthritis resolution and safety with colchicine and prednisone in acute calcium pyrophosphate (CPP) crystal arthritis. Methods We conducted a post hoc analysis of the COLCHICORT trial, which compared colchicine and prednisone for the treatment of acute CPP crystal arthritis, using a ...

Olfaction in mosquitoes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Female mosquitoes are vectors of diseases, affecting both livestock and humans. The host-seeking and identification behaviors of mosquitoes are mediated mainly by olfactory cues. The peripheral olfactory organs of mosquitoes which perceive olfactory cues

In-vivo two-photon imaging of the honey bee antennal lobe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Due to the honey bee's importance as a simple neural model, there is a great need for new functional imaging modalities. Herein we report on the use of two-photon microscopy for in-vivo functional and morphological imaging of the honey bee's olfactory ...

A short history of 'glomerulus' [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Kidney Journal, 2013
After enjoying Kettritz's and Luft's Nephroquiz [1], I enjoyed even more their reply [2] to my comment, which they ended by posing an interesting dilemma: should we use the terms ‘glomerulus/glomeruli’, masculine gender, or ‘glomerulum/glomerula’, neutral gender?
