Grad-CAM++ is Equivalent to Grad-CAM With Positive Gradients

open access: yes24th Irish Machine Vision and Image Processing Conference, 2022
The Grad-CAM algorithm provides a way to identify what parts of an image contribute most to the output of a classifier deep network. The algorithm is simple and widely used for localization of objects in an image, although some researchers have point out its limitations, and proposed various alternatives.

Effect of Wall Motion on Arterial Wall Shear Stress

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2007
The distribution of wall shear stress (WSS) in arteries is affected by both blood and wall motion. Most studies have ignored wall motion by assuming that the artery wall is rigid.

Content of Polyphenolic Compounds and Antioxidant Potential of Some Bulgarian Red Grape Varieties and Red Wines, Determined by HPLC, UV, and NIR Spectroscopy

open access: yesAgriculture, 2020
Today, good food criteria also include healthy capacity. So, the wine on our table should not only have good organoleptic qualities, but should be characterized by a high healthy potential.

Infection Control Practices for Vascular Access Management in Hemodialysis: Results From a Nationwide Survey of Japanese National University Hospitals

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Bloodstream infections due to repeated vascular access (VA) puncture and circuit connections remain major concerns in hemodialysis. Therefore, we examined current practices for glove, disinfectant, and personal protective equipment (PPE) use according to VA type in national university hospitals in Japan.

Numerical Simulation of a Low-Hematocrit Blood Flow in a Small Artery with Stenosis

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2007
The blood flow in a large artery is commonly analyzed by means of constitutive equations. However, it is not appropriate to use these equations for small arteries because of the heterogeneity of the blood. In this study, we use a bead-spring model for an

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 ...
