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 ...

Image intensifier characterization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
An image intensifier forms an integral part of a full-field image range finder under development at the University of Waikato. Operating as a high speed shutter with repetition rates up to 100 MHz, a method is described to characterise the response, both

Unsupervised MR harmonization by learning disentangled representations using information bottleneck theory

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2021
In magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, a lack of standardization in acquisition often causes pulse sequence-based contrast variations in MR images from site to site, which impedes consistent measurements in automatic analyses.

Comparative Evaluation of Hemodiafiltration, Hemoperfusion, and Standard Hemodialysis on Efficacy, Inflammatory Control, Dialysis Adequacy, and Safety in End‐Stage Renal Disease: A Prospective Observational Study

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...

Image-to-image Translation by Deep Learning Model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Image-to-image translation is a fascinating and rapidly evolving field in computer vision and artificial intelligence. The problem involves transformation from an input image into an output image, while preserving certain semantic or structural ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Photogenic Guided Image-to-Image Translation With Single Encoder

open access: yesIEEE Open Journal of the Computer Society
Image-to-image translation involves combining content and style from different images to generate new images. This technology is particularly valuable for exploring artistic aspects, such as how artists from different eras would depict scenes.

Few-Shot Unsupervised Image-to-Image Translation [PDF]

open access: yes2019 IEEE/CVF International Conference on Computer Vision (ICCV), 2019
Unsupervised image-to-image translation methods learn to map images in a given class to an analogous image in a different class, drawing on unstructured (non-registered) datasets of images. While remarkably successful, current methods require access to many images in both source and destination classes at training time.
